Kevin’s love of dancing Argentine Tango led him to start exploring ways to condition his body to improve balance, flexibility, speed and suppleness in movement. He realized early on in his exploration of the dance that correct movement and body awareness play a critical role not only in dancing but also in everyday functional movement.

Introduced to Pilates by Michelle, opening The Better Movement Studio is his dream of sharing the methodology and thought process of Pilates to others. It produced amazing results for him personally in dance and movement. He hopes that you will be able to unlock similar results by exploring this avenue of body conditioning.
