The studio is constantly changing to better meet your needs, so please always feel free to express anything that you would love to see on the schedule (or in a workshop)!
I hope that you feel welcome & comfortable in the studio & always know that I (& the team) are here to support you in whatever way we can!

Why KP Fitness?
​Why not? :) We offer a little of everything, there is truly something for everyone. We strive to make a place that one can feel comfortable in whether yoga/fitness is a new adventure or their finding their new home. A lot of love, energy, & commitment has gone into this small business. It's a one woman show in the background but it's so much more than that inside the actual studio!
