Hi Reader

I hope you had a great summer and are looking forward to all the fun that comes with fall. Around here, things have been eventful to say the least, and I’m excited to catch you up on everything that’s been happening!

First of all, Pilates by Kahley was featured on The Today Show! On July 1st, host Craig Melvin tried out reformer Pilates and explored the benefits for both men and women – showcasing our studio’s work with the Kansas City Chiefs! You can watch the full segment by clicking on the link below (and look for PbK and the Chiefs at the 2:42 timestamp).

​

Speaking of the Chiefs, I recently got the chance to share my experience training some of the team and talk about my liver transplant journey and passion for Pilates on the Post Class Brag podcast. I had so much fun chatting with host Katie Bragaw, and you can listen to our conversation on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

Fall is a time when we often think about bounty and gratitude, and both feel especially poignant to me this year. I’m so thankful for all of the opportunities and the exposure the studio has received – and also for your continued support as part of the Pilates by Kahley family.
