Caitlyn Kresky has a deep-rooted foundation in classical ballet and recently completed a professional career with several companies including Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre, Columbia Classical Ballet, and Roxey Ballet.
Kresky spoke with The Montgomery News about her decision to open her own Pilates studio.

She said she developed a strong sense of discipline, precision, and attention to detail—elements that naturally influence her teaching style today. Her years of dance training honed not only her technical skill, but also a profound understanding of movement, flow, and body awareness—qualities that now shape her work as a Pilates instructor.
Throughout her dance career, she experienced firsthand the physical demands and risks that come with high-performance movement. It was during this time that she discovered Pilates—not just as a form of cross-training, but as a powerful tool for injury prevention, rehabilitation, and long-term wellness.

The method’s intelligent approach to strength, alignment, and control captivated her, and what began as a complement to her dance practice quickly became a new passion and purpose. She is a Comprehensively Certified Pilates Instructor through Balanced Body with a commitment to helping others experience the same transformative benefits Pilates brought to her own life.
Today, she combines her background in professional ballet with the principles of Pilates to help clients move with strength and confidence by focusing on control, proper alignment, and quality of movement in every session. She believes wholeheartedly that Pilates is for all people and every body, regardless of age, experience, or fitness level.
