Lauren Kelly: LKMoves Pilates. Therapy. Training

Lauren has been training and teaching in Philadelphia for over 8 years. She began her teaching career in college after a dance injury left her sidelined and craving movement and healing. She then moved to Philadelphia to pursue a professional dance career, starting in the apprentice company of Philadanco! After receiving her 1st Pilates Method Alliance certification in 2006 from Polestar Pilates-based master teacher and PMA Board Member Kim Gibilisco, Lauren pursued her comprehensive Pilates education from Power Pilates NYC, graduating after completing over 800 hours in 2010. Lauren has since expanded her Pilates practice with her professional dance experience, spearheading the design of the Barre fitness program at Thrive Pilates in Center City. As the manager of Philly Power Yoga, Lauren sought out a rounded yoga experience including meditation and daily mental & physical practice. In addition to currently teaching Barre classes at Focus Barre & Yoga and private Pilates clientele at Urbanfront Pilates, Lauren practices therapeutic exercise for Dr. Barry Silverman, chiropractic, at the Healing Arts Center of Philadelphia and Dr. Joseph Zarett, physical therapy, at Zarett Rehab and former for Dr. Elliot Diamond, podiatry. Lauren takes on in-home, in-office 1 on 1 sessions and groups or teaches at her own studio, Prime Fusion Fitness, located in the Healing Arts Center of Philadelphia on 2nd & Chestnut. Her compassionate and approachable manner tempered with her natural bio-mechanical vision allows her to see clients of all ages, abilities and level of health ranging from severe sciatica, joint replacement surgeries, weight loss and pre/post natal health. My passion is to serve my clients with the greatest level of information about their individual bodies & needs. There is nothing like introducing a client who is new or old to fitness to something new about themselves that will make them stronger and more aware. This awareness is seated in physical and emotional vitality. I'm excited with each and every meeting with my clients and am genuinely proud of their progress and hard work.
