Kalena Akamine
There are many motivating testimonies about people discovering the benefits of Pilates while attempting to rehab an injury. The same is true for Kalena. Pilates offered a new perspective to all aspects of her life, and she was so impressed with the efficiency, effectiveness and depth of the work that she felt inspired to pursue a deeper connection to it and to share the work with others. She loves seeing how this method can be adapted to a vast array of bodies and concerns and believes everyone can benefit from a consistent Pilates practice. One of her greatest joys is to witness the sense of empowerment and accomplishment that clients feel when they recognize the positive impact they were able to create for themselves. She completed the comprehensive teacher training at Pilates O Kala and is certified in mat and apparatus and has years of experience as a licensed massage therapist with extensive training in clinical massage.
