Meet Katie

Hi, friend. I'm so glad you're here.

For the past seven years, I’ve lived and worked seasonally around the world, from the research stations of Antarctica to the Alaskan bush. I’ve worked as a field archaeologist, lived in wildfire camps, flown helicopters, thru-hiked the AZT, and called tents, vans, cabins, and communal bunkhouses all home.

And then... I became a Pilates instructor. What the f***? (You may be asking).

Yeah, I asked myself that too.

The thing is, in those years, I was chasing challenge.



I fell in love with the art of navigating discomfort and the adventure of seeking anything outside my comfort zone.

And then, I discovered how movement is another medium for exactly that. For showing up with resiliency, for exploring uncharted territories within ourselves, and for practicing empathy.

I watched as it transformed countless individuals' strength, posture, and body awareness, I realized what a powerful tool this type of movement was.

Dirtbag Pilates was born from that realization.

I design challenging and intentional workouts crafted specifically for outdoor enthusiasts as a way to reach new summits, adventures, and prepare for everything this beautiful life has to offer.

Let's dive in.

Katie brings a personal touch and a strong emphasis on making it your own class, which helped me feel safe, open, and deeply connected to myself. Her caring presence and intentional guidance create a welcoming and supportive space."

"Katie always knows the right things to say to push you. She’s an amazing instructor and I see myself improving every week!"

"Katie is great at keeping me moving and motivated. She encouraged me to listen to my body while also pushing through our mental barriers. I loved being coached by her!"
