Announcing The Balanced Life Pilates Instructor Team
I have some exciting news to share and I want you to be the first to know! Check out this quick video below for the exciting announcement + exclusive details!
I’m so excited to announce that three expert Pilates instructors are officially joining us at The Balanced Life! 🎉
I’m not going anywhere – I love teaching and creating workouts for you. You’ll continue to see new workouts and more from me, along with more new workouts from Sheri, Becca, and Kaita inside The Balanced Life Sisterhood!
This means members of The Balanced Life Sisterhood will now get access to even MORE workouts, including a variety of lengths, styles, and focuses – all with our signature approach of grace over guilt, clear instruction, and encouragement to focus on progress, not perfection.
Get to know your newest Pilates instructors
Sheri’s love for the way Pilates makes her feel inspired her to become a certified Pilates instructor nearly ten years ago. Her calm voice and intentional approach to movement will lead you to uncover your strength, connect to your core, and learn to trust yourself, both on and off the mat.
As a Birth Doula she also specializes in prenatal & postpartum Pilates. She has a passion to educate and empower women to feel good in their bodies and celebrate the seasons of change in their lives.
Sheri lives in San Diego and loves spending her weekends exploring with her family.
Becca’s journey to take better care of her body moved her to become a certified Pilates instructor more than ten years ago. Her realistic approach to Pilates helps you gain more confidence and mindfulness in your everyday life.
She specializes in making Pilates accessible to everyone. Becca believes Pilates is for ANYbody and because it didn’t always come naturally to her, she has the words and tools to help others discover its joy.
Becca and her family live just north of Santa Barbara in Los Olivos, CA.
Kaita began her career in dance, which eventually led her to the world of Pilates and becoming a certified instructor almost 15 years ago. She was interested in how Pilates emphasized alignment and helped women feel good without trying to be perfect.
She specializes in an “embodied approach,” using the body as a tool for healing. Kaita will help you become more curious and playful with your Pilates practice to relieve tension, ease pain, and cultivate a deeper mind-body connection.
After living in Santa Barbara for years, Kaita and her family now call Austin, TX home.
We can’t wait for all that’s ahead! If you’re not yet a member, we’d love to have you join us! Click here to learn more about The Sisterhood and we’ll see you on your mat soon!

We’re SO excited and grateful to add Kaita, Becca and Sheri to the team!
I resonated so much with Kaita as a former dancer as well! I’m also just curious– was Robin a dancer once, too? She has some of the best feet! 🙈
Yes, she has mentioned she was.
How wonderful that you’re a former dancer, Lauren, and resonate with Kaita! Robin is a former dancer, how fun that you could tell, Lauren! We’re cheering you on!🙂👏
Hooray! TBL blesses its members with fun, positive, talented instructors. Thankful for the growth of this fine organization!

Thank you for your encouragement and support, Michelle! We couldn’t agree more about learning to connect with our body in new ways. We’re cheering you on!
Welcome ladies and congratulations on expanding TBL with new instructors.
Thanks for your warm welcome, Julie!💕
This is indeed exciting news! Robin – thanks for your generosity in share the sand with other instructors. The variety…with you as a constant… will be so much fun! Never a dull workout to be found. Once again, I am so happy to be part of TBL Family!
I love how you expressed this. We all love Robin and want her to stay with us as our main instructor and familiar presence, but I welcome the new lades for variety and their different perspectives.
That’s a really exciting development and I (we, because my husband joins me on his mat too) are looking forward to pushing out of our comfort zones even further with the four of you guiding us on. Bring it in, we’re ready for this. 🤸🏻♀️🧘🏻♀️🤸🏻♀️
Yes, we love to hear that! We’re here for you and your husband and we’re cheering you on!👏💪
Exciting news indeed! Looking forward to future of TBL.
Thanks, Eleanor! We’re so excited for all the great things to come!

This is fantastic news! I can’t wait for the calendar to have more instructors it’s exciting
Yay!! We think you’re going to love the new additional workouts!
YAY YAY YAY! Can’t wait to see more workouts from these wonderful instructors! I listened to the podcast the other night while rebounding and their love and joy for teaching Pilates came through loud and clear in your conversation.
Thank you for sharing, Maryellen! Becca, Sheri and Kaiti are all so passionate about Pilates and it is reflected in their work!💕
Welcome! Love the “grace over guilt” idea. I joined this community about a year and half ago when my baby was 3 months old, referred by my sister-in-law, and I’ve gradually gained lots of strength in my ab and I’ve been feeling more energy during the day. No pressure at all if I end up not having time on a specific day to do my exercise and I simply just pick up the next day. I also lost 20 pounds since then without limiting my food intake. My husband and I are trying for number 2. I’m excited for the prenatal Pilates from the instructors! Yah!!!!
Congratulations on all the wins you’re experiencing, Shuang, that is fantastic and a testament to the work that you have put in! Good luck with baby number 2, we’re cheering you on to a healthy pregnancy!
Congratulations, Robin, on expanding the instructor team! And, yay, for the Sisterhood!! I have so enjoyed working out with you along with the occasional bonus workout from Kaita, Becca and Sherri. I believe I’ve done at least one with each. Looking forward to broadening my Pilates experience going forward. Best to all!
Thank you, Martha! We’re cheering you on in your Pilates journey with Robin, Sheri, Becca and Kaita!👏
Wonderful news! I love The Balanced Life – you all have kept me rolling out my mat consistently for well over a year now!
Congratulations on your consistency, Amanda! Keep up the great work, you’re worth it!
That’s very exciting! I’m looking forward to more great Pilates workouts with Kaita, Sheri and Becca.
Yay, we’re cheering you on!💪

This is such great news!! I was actually wondering if there were going to be more instructors. I’m so happy it’s instructors we’ve already ‘met!’
Looking forward to learning from you all. See you on the mat soon!
Welcome!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yay, that’s so great to hear, Krista! We’re here for you and look forward to “seeing” you on your mat soon!🙂🎉
This is great news for TBL and members of the Sisterhood. I’m looking forward to returning to my mat but at just a month post-op after a total hip replacement I’m taking it steady and resisting the urge to see what the new joint is capable of!
We’re so glad you’re listening to your body and waiting until the right time for you to return to your mat! We’re sending you thoughts of continued healing and look forward to your cheering you on again soon!🌻
I seriously can’t wait to learn the seal pup, it looks so much fun!! I am so excited to learn from these amazing women and for them to be a part of this community and our journey to find our own balanced life!
Welcome to the team <3
We’re cheering you on and excited for you to learn the seal pup and so much more, Mariana!👏 💪
Welcome ladies!! I look forward to seeing your classes more often 🙂
We’re here for you and cheering you on, Barbara!👏
Wonderful to “meet” y’all and so glad to get to exercise with and learn from y’all on a regular basis now!
We look forward to seeing you on your mat soon, Grey! 🙂
It was great to meet each of you through the short videos :). I look forward to all that you have to teach and certainly am glad that Robin isn’t going anywhere. I love Robin’s voice and how she encourages us. Sometimes I feel like she is sitting in the same room with me with her reminders to not hold your breath, and to drop your shoulders! Best of luck as you join together and positively impact the sisterhood.
Thank you for your kind words and encouragement for the team and the community! It often does feel if Robin is in the room with us, as her cues are so spot on! We’re here for you and cheering you on, Sandra!
I enjoyed watching the interviews and i am exited to have these instracters guide us in practising pilaties.

Exciting!! I’m 31 weeks pregnant and SOOOOO look forward to some of Sheri’s postpartum specific workouts to begin building strength back up in the near future!!
Congratulations on your pregnancy, Kerry, what a gift! We’re so excited too for you to enjoy Sheri’s postpartum workouts and care for yourself! We’re cheering you on both on and off your mat!
Welcome Becca, Sheri and Kaita! Loved getting a glimpse into each of your personalities through the interviews. We are exited to discover, explore and experience grace over guilt and building strength through the process with you!
Thank you so much, Beth! We can’t wait for you to discover all of the new workouts in your Workout Library in the months to come, and we’re cheering you on! 🎉💕

Hi Nata – please reach out to us at [email protected] and we will be happy to assist you with this.🙂
Thanks for letting us know, Nata. We have sent you an email to follow up.🙂
I am fairly new to The Sisterhood, but am really enjoying all the classes so far. I took some time off from pilates and getting back into it a little slower than I expected, but having the different classes to choose from makes it very easy to get a good workout any day. I like that I can do just a 10 to 15 min workout and still feel like I accomplished something for the day and feeling no guilt. Looking forward to the new instructors and their individual styles.
Welcome to The Sisterhood, Anna, we’re so glad you’re here! We LOVE that you’re giving yourself grace with returning to Pilates and feeling accomplished with time on your mat. We’re here for you and cheering you on! 👏💪
