What Kirsten Brings

As a manager for lululemon athletica and being in the fitness world, Kirsten has tried almost every workout there is. It wasn’t until she was recovering from a broken foot that she found and fell in love with Pilates. She needed an intense, total body workout that was low to no impact. The megaformerTM offered something that she couldn’t find anywhere else and after just a few classes she was hooked for life. Don’t be fooled by her quiet persona, her workouts are loud and hard!

Lagree Fitness Certified Instructor

18 Questions for Kirsten

  • Favorite thing about your class?
    Creativity – I always try to incorporate something new as much as possible.
  • Favorite thing about mega or pilates as a client? (Like when you take class what inspires/ motivates you)?
    My favorite thing about mega is that you constantly are learning and challenging yourself. As a client the workout never gets easier or boring. As an instructor it still amazes how after 6 years of teaching I can still find new ways to use the machine and challenge others.
  • Favorite type of music for class?
    Remixes of the songs you love.
  • Describe your class/ teaching style?
    Fast paced- I love the cardiovascular aspect that you can get from the method. The movements are slow but I work to make the transitions as smooth and as quick possible!
  • What made you want to become an instructor?
    If you told me 7 years ago that I would be a fitness instructor I would have laughed as I’m not an outgoing person. It was consistently taking Dani’s classes and her pushing me out of my comfort zone that inspired me and I knew this was a special method & studio that I wanted to be apart of.
  • Fun/ interesting fact about yourself?
    I love to draw and sketch- I always wanted to be a shoe designer and have stacks full of old sketch books.
  • Favorite pilates / Mega move?
    Scrambled eggs.
  • Did you have an “AHA” moment with Pilates or Mega? What was it?
    My first class at PB – I couldn’t laugh or talk for days!
  • What can you not live without?
    Working out/sweating.
  • What’s a life hack you love?
    Wine ice cubes – nobody likes watered down rose.
  • Favorite time of day?
    Morning.
  • What makes you happiest these days?
    My son Nixon.
  • Still or Sparkling?
    Sparking.
  • Something you can never get sick of?
    My sons laugh.
  • Guilty pleasure?
    Nichols creamery.
  • Most fun you’ve ever had.
    A spontaneous week trip to Venice, Italy with my husband.
  • Best advice you’ve ever gotten?
    If you think it’s stupid, don’t do it – from the mouth of my dad:)

    My wedding song – crazy love by van Morrison.
