KAI LI, LOW

Kai Li was first introduced to Pilates through the Les Mills BodyBalance™ program and obtained her first international instructor certification in 2008. Later, she was referred by her orthopedic specialist to help rehabilitate her herniated disc, sciatica, and piriformis syndrome. She quickly began to experience the benefits of Pilates, which helped strengthen her back, minimize her pain, and develop awareness of neutral alignment for deep postural muscles. During her Pilates rehabilitation program, she was inspired by her trainer Ginny's coaching techniques and encouragement to push further. This motivated her to pursue her first Pilates teaching certification and explore the deeper benefits of a consistent Pilates practice.

Kai Li was trained under Polestar Pilates® Mat Series Level 1 & Level 2, STOTT PILATES Intensive Mat Plus (IMP). She is an internationally certified Pilates Instructor under Pilates Academy International (PAI) for Anatomy, Biomechanics & Posture Analysis (ABP), All Populations Mat (APM), and All Populations Reformer (APR).

In addition, Kai Li obtained her certificates from Carolyne Anthony of The Center for Women's Fitness for her Myofascial Release Techniques, The Center Method for Diastasis Recti Recovery™, and Pre- and Post-Natal Pilates Specialist Program™.

As a Pilates practitioner and instructor, Kai Li is continuously inspired by how Pilates re-educates and heals the body. She enjoys working with people of all fitness levels, making each class challenging while also encouraging her clients to have fun and enjoy Pilates and all its benefits. Kai Li looks forward to further advancing her Pilates education, particularly in the areas of rehabilitation and women's health.
