Big News + Black Friday at Pilates by Kahley 🖤✨

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader

​
​

I hope you’re doing well and getting ready for the holiday season. I have some big updates to share — and a special invitation just for you.

​
​✨ Featured Story: My Journey + The Ab Belt™

I’m honored to be featured in The Pilates Journal! In the article, I open up about how The Ab Belt™ by Kahley was born from one of the most challenging seasons of my life: recovering from a liver transplant. After surgery, reconnecting with my core felt impossible — and that’s exactly where the idea for the belt came from.

A few things I talk about in the article:

​
​

  • How I prototyped different designs until the belt provided both support and freedom.
  • Why the Ab Beltâ„¢ is not just about resistance — it’s about awareness and feedback.
  • How this tool helps beginners feel their core safely and how experienced movers can refine precision.
  • Powerful feedback I’ve received: less back pain, better posture, and a new, deeper connection to abdominal engagement.
  • My hope: for The Ab Beltâ„¢ to be as common in studios as other Pilates props.

​
If you’ve ever wondered how I came up with this tool or why it means so much to me, this gives you the full picture.

Hi Reader I wanted to take a moment to personally connect and share something that feels incredibly meaningful to me. For those of you who have been part of this journey, you know that Pilates by Kahley was born from something much deeper than movement. After my liver transplant, Pilates became my way back — back to strength, back to confidence, back to myself. What started as a passion for teaching has grown into a studio built on resilience, education, and empowering others to feel strong...
