Pilates: When you’re on a good thing, stick to it! Kerry’s Pilates Story

October 23, 2025 • David Gunther • Season 11 • Episode 2

When movement slips away, so does freedom. For Kerry Whitaker, living with a connective tissue disorder could have meant just that... limitations, setbacks, and a shrinking world. But Pilates gave her another path.

In Series 11 of The Pilates Business Podcast: episode 2, Pilates Can Change Lives, Kerry shares how clinical Pilates became the key to strength, resilience, and everyday independence at 72. From line dancing and beach walks to recovering after injury, her story is proof that Pilates isn’t measured by the exercise itself, but by what it makes possible.

Whether you’re a Pilates studio owner, instructor, or simply someone curious about how Pilates transforms lives—you’ll find Kerry’s story both inspiring and instructive.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

Why strength, not stretching, is the answer for hypermobility.
How starting with a personalised assessment sets the foundation for long-term results.
The role of habit; once or twice-weekly Pilates for ageing whilst also living well.
How semi-private sessions build community, laughter, and accountability.
The power of Pilates in recovery after injury or when living with conditions.
Why Pilates is less about reps and springs, and more about what it enables beyond the studio.
