Harmony Mind-Body Fitness

Tara was introduced to the Stott Pilates® method while studying dance as an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan. Tara brings strong physicality, a keen eye and creative spirit to her sessions. Tara enjoys running, spinning, rowing, and other modalities like many of her clients. Therefore she is passionate about the cross-training benefits of Pilates and helping her clients achieve a deep understanding of the theory behind Pilates, challenging even her most advanced clients to rediscover the benefits of the fundamentals.

Katie was an avid Pilates student while working in the corporate world. Feeling unfulfilled, she decided a career in Pilates would be a much better fit. She completed her Stott Pilates certification in 2003 and has never looked back! With Katie's dance background and love for all things fitness, she feels truly blessed to have found her niche. Katie's passion for Pilates is matched with an energy to share her knowledge with her clients. Katie earned her master's degree in Accounting Information Systems from Michigan State University.
