About Kris
I am a movement therapist and movement teacher and I bring three decades of experience to my practice.
I graduated from the University of Toronto in 1992 with a Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy. In 2003, I earned my certification with Stott Pilates, soon to be followed by certifications with Body Harmonics, Polestar Pilates, and the Pilates Method Alliance. I am currently a Feldenkrais® Method Trainee, certified to teach Awareness Through Movement® classes.
I weave all of these movement knowledge bases and experiences together to support my client’s unique needs and interests.
I specialize in working with people with orthopaedic, musculoskeletal, and neurological issues.
Offerings
Private Sessions
In a private session we will explore foundational movement patterns and explore how those movements could be done more easily or could feel better.
Through gentle touch and movement, possibilities expand for new movement patterns which are more comfortable, efficient, and useful.
The cues that I give are provided verbally and through touch, and are custom-tailored to the unique circumstances of each particular person.
The intention is for people to discover ease of movement from the inside out, rather than "performing" a movement or "doing a good job" from the outside in. In this way, there are no wrong ways to move, just options to explore.
When we’re mindful of the quality of our movement, our system self organizes and ease is restored.
Kris is my Holy Grail of therapists. She is Amazing, Brilliant, Caring and Dedicated. She is very easy to work with and so genuinely concerned with my recovery. Even my 6 year old granddaughter comments on my noticeable improvement.
