Kim Carruthers
Pilates Instructor
Increasing concern about America’s childhood obesity problem inspired Kim Carruthers to begin her non-profit program Pilates in the ‘Hood. The program is currently featured in many of Los Angeles’ urban elementary schools and Boys and Girls Clubs. Pilates in the ‘Hood recently partnered with the L.A. Care Health Plan, a community accountable health insurance plan. The program seeks to bring health and awareness to inner cities communities.
Kim started her career as a professional dancer, performing with Alvin Ailey and other New York City based dance companies. Kim obtained Pilates certification at The Pilates Studio 1997.
