Our Teachers

Our master instructos come from a combination of both classical and contemporary education in Pilates. Their dream is to share as much overall Pilates knowledge with their students as possible. Dawn and Cassandra are both also very educated in anatomy and fuctional movement. Most trainings held at Sun Pilates in Colorado Springs.

Dawn King
Although she is no longer with us her contribution to this training lives on through our program. Dawn brought so much knowledge, experience and personality into Pilates SOL and we have her in our hearts through every training. 

 

Dawn comes from a long history of health and fitness. As a former college athlete, she began working as a group fitness instructor to stay active during the off-season.

Upon graduation, she moved to Key Largo, Florida where she became the Head Fitness Instructor at the elite Ocean Reef Club. It was during this time that Dawn was first introduced to Pilates. She originally began practicing Pilates in an effort to rehabilitate a recurring sports injury but found the overall benefits essential for everyday living.

Besides fitness and wellness, Dawn’s biggest passion is her 16-year old twins. She believes her study and practice of Pilates and therapeutic movement were pivotal to her healthy and happy pregnancy.

Certified Pilates Instructor – Las Vegas Movement Arts

Certified Aerobics Instructor – AAFA
