WORKSHOPS
The Full Circle Workshops
When starting Full Circle Pilates LLC, I prioritized courage, curiosity, and community as core values. In 2024, I am using courage as a guiding force to push curiosity forward within the community. By bringing experienced instructors and their expertise in their chosen industry to the studio, we aim to cultivate an environment that sparks curiosity, advocates for inclusivity, and fosters growth. These workshops are carefully designed to provide you with the necessary tools and knowledge to connect the dots and deepen your understanding of movement and the body. It is through the integration of these chosen modalities within the Pilates System that we can unlock new perspectives and make meaningful connections. By gaining a more comprehensive understanding, we are able to make more educated choices when teaching, sparking curiosity within our bodies and ensuring that we share the work of Pilates with integrity and intention.
JANUARY 2024 WORKSHOP - TAUGHT BY KIM SPENCER OF MOBILITY FOCUS PILATES
Kimberly Spencer is a dedicated Mobility and Pilates instructor with over 25 years of teaching experience. Her lifelong passion for teaching movement began during her teenage years, following her through a professional dance career and ultimately to her certification as a Pilates teacher under Long Beach Dance Conditioning.
Kimberly's journey has always seemed to move in the field of movement therapy. She continued to grow her skills in a Physical Therapy and Pilates clinic for six years, before establishing her own studio. While also a mother of two (formerly) high level competitive gymnasts, she developed an even deeper interest in the science behind enhancing mobility, preventing injuries, and promoting strength post recovery, leading to three accreditations as a Mobility and Strength Specialist in the Functional Range Conditioning® System.
In addition to her studio clients, she currently works with professional soccer players from the LA Futbol Club and corporations like Universal Studios where she guides everyone from cooks and cashiers, to stilt walkers, actors and executives through joint specific movements to relieve work-related pain and improve performance levels.
Kimberly believes that everyone possesses the power to unlock their body's potential. She's dedicated to providing individuals with the tools to improve joint health, increase body awareness, and continuously expand their capabilities through simple movement techniques. Kimberly values the importance of maintaining balance, persistence, and patience in all aspects of life and strives to help guide others and herself to do the same.

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT KIM SPENCER:
Kim is not only extremely talented and passionate about teaching, but she also possesses an extensive knowledge of movement and the human body. Her years of experience truly shines through in her teaching style. What sets her apart is her ability to seamlessly integrate different modalities and creativity into each session allowing for a well-rounded experience. One of the things I appreciate most about Kim is her intentional use of clear cueing, which helps her clients access a deeper connection within their bodies. Every session with Kim is thoughtfully planned and meaningful, providing an extra dose of motivation throughout each lesson.
We are incredibly grateful and excited to have Kim at Full Circle Pilates!
