Who We Are
Maggie Barton

She brings a down-to-earth approach to the mat, encouraging a practice that meets you exactly where you are. A creative at heart, Maggie enjoys design, weightlifting, and getting lost in a good book on her Kindle—all while chasing around her three young children. She says she finds the deep breath of life in all the chaos.
Caroline Streater

Kate Thomas
Co-Founder & Mat Pilates Instructor
Kate has always found joy in movement. Whether leading a dynamic mat pilates session or an energizing cycling class, she brings a passion for strength, balance, and mindful movement to every workout. For Kate, physical activity isn’t just about fitness—it’s a way to feel centered, motivated, and empowered. When she’s not on the mat you can find her soaking up time with her rescue pup, Enzo, her beloved fur child. And if she’s extra glowing these days, it might have something to do with planning her May 2025 wedding!
