Dawn King

Co-founder

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.
