Kim Carruthers: The Reformer

Kim sculpts bodies, minds, and spirits. She's a master Pilates instructor, founder of Physical Perfection Pilates. Check out her IG (@physicalperfectionpilates) and you'll see why this is the perfect name for her studio. She's a life and wellness coach as well. Her beauty, joy, and power make her a personal icon to me. Her private client list is filled with celebrities and athletes. She has a long wait-list for her private, bespoke sessions. She gives just as much back to communities in Los Angeles where Pilates isn't necessarily easily available to everyone with her other company, Pilates In The Hood. Pilates In The Hood is a program fully covered by insurance (the 1st of its kind) that brings not only Pilates to people, but also jobs for women who can train with her and then teach for Pilates In The Hood. She says she's always seen herself as "the Black Jane Fonda" and I absolutely see that. She has an app coming, a clothing line in the works, her custom resistance bands are out and an online studio all on the horizon. I cannot wait! I've been insanely lucky to take 3 private classes over zoom with her and she's THE BEST. I mean, it's torture, I feel like every muscle in my body is on fire...but in a good way. Kim FTW!
