Kristin Salmans

Kristin began practicing and teaching Pilates matwork in 2003, shortly after the oldest of her three children was born. The practice of Pilates opened an entirely new love for movement and fitness. Kristin completed Comprehensive Instructor Training through Balanced Body Education. The eLevate Classical Master Teacher mentorship with Lesley Logan reinvigorated her love for teaching. She has taught at various gyms and studios around the country, most recently opening a studio at The Jayhawk Club in Lawrence, KS. Kristin holds a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Baylor University and a Masters in Health Systems Administration from Georgetown University. She currently serves on the Board of Trustees at LMH Health, the local hospital. Kristin is active in community service, passionate about voter rights and civic education, and serves on the Board of the League of Women Voters. She believes health requires not only physical but mental, social and emotional engagement, individually and as a community. This background and experience are a perfect complement to the teaching and practice of Pilates. She truly loves building a Pilates community. Her greatest reward is seeing the amazing transformations of her clients, not only physically, but in mind-body balance and confidence. The Pilates method truly is a life- changing system! Kristin is a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher and also has AFAA, Balanced Body Barre, TRX and indoor cycling certifications, with frequent Continuing Education.
