Licensed Massage Therapist
Pilates Instructor
Kaleigh found her way into massage through the studio floor, not the treatment room. Years of teaching Pilates put her side by side with a mentor doing integrative neurosomatic work, and watching stuck, long-standing pain finally shift is what sent her to massage school in 2015. She spent the better part of a decade apprenticing in that neurosomatic method, treating clients at Evolve Pilates and later House of Yin, while also working courtside and pool-deck with UF’s athletic teams as a sports massage intern. Motherhood pulled her off the table for a stretch, but she’s back to full-time practice and taking new clients.She never stopped teaching, and it shows in how she works — she’s lead instructor at a Gainesville Pilates studio and teaches yoga and anatomy to teacher trainees, which keeps her thinking in precise, structural terms about how bodies move and hold tension. A more recent training in trauma-informed breathwork rounds out that foundation, giving her a sharper read on what a client’s nervous system can actually handle in a given session. The result is a style of bodywork that moves between structural precision and real attentiveness to pace — informed as much by teaching movement as by treating it.
