One-on-One STOTT PILATES® Instruction and Training in Kalamazoo, Michigan

A contemporary approach to the original Pilates method based on modern principles of exercise science and rehabilitation. The STOTT PILATES® method is unparalleled in the industry for its thoroughness and quality, and Centered Pilates is the only certified studio in West Michigan.

I'm Laura McKenzie Bovenkerk. I fell in love with Pilates while pursuing a dance career in New York City. At first, it was a way to alter my work out but soon it became a way of life. Pilates helped my body become longer and leaner, it made me feel great and made me a better dancer.

Pilates is an efficient form of exercise which allowed me to feel centered and kept my body injury free and ready for the demands of my busy dance schedule. I performed on the Great Stage at Radio City Music Hall as a Radio City Rockette for eight years. During this time, I decided to pursue my certification so I could share my experience and love for Pilates with others.

I chose to become a STOTT PILATES® Certified Instructor because of their attention to detail and focus on alignment and safety. I'm also a certified TRX instructor, an ACE-certified instructor, and a STOTT PILATES® Instructor Trainer.

I've taught clients ranging in age from 10 to 84, which is another reason why I love teaching Pilates - it's for everyone. Your workout will be tailored specifically to your needs and personal goals, and I promise a fluid and dynamic workout that will improve your strength, flexibility and balance. After a session you are guaranteed to feel stronger, taller and centered.
