What People Are Saying…
I have known Kelli Workman for the past 10 years as a professional colleague and as a teacher at Bodyworks Studio in Tucson, AZ. Kelli worked with me as a mentor during my time as a student of the Ron Fletcher Program of Study Teacher Training Program in 2011. She is dedicated to the movement healing profession and exemplifies impeccable teaching skills, an eye for identifying faulty movement patterns and correcting clients in a positive manner. I always learned something about my own body and movement patterns every time I worked with Kelli. She had the uncanny ability to smile, and get you to work hard with perfect precision and alignment! Beyond her teaching skills, Kelli is trustworthy, honest, early for any appointments or classes, and on top of those qualities she is beautiful inside and out! I wholeheartedly recommend Kelli Workman.

As a former dancer-turned-office worker, I've really enjoyed my Pilates instruction under Kelli- she understands the specific needs that come from sitting at a computer all-day and how to use each person's strengths to better excel at Pilates. Under her instruction, I've seen significant changes in my core strength, muscle tone, and flexibility - and her sense of humor, dedication, and encouragement have been integral to surviving and thriving during lockdown.

Kelli is a fabulous Pilates instructor. She was very patient with me as a beginner and continues to provide feedback to improve my form/alignment as I progress. Her cues are clear, and she provides modifications as needed. She has extensive knowledge of the body and is great at explaining the intention of the different movements. She is always challenging me, and as a result, my body is leaner, stronger, and I have significantly less back pain and better posture. I always enjoy my sessions with Kelli. She is professional, positive, and encouraging. I highly recommend working with her!

Kelli is one of the best teachers I know. The first thing I noticed that separates her from others is her ability to tune in to people. She’s able to understand quickly the different ways someone may be motivated. She reads the room and adapts if that’s what is needed that day. Kelli trusts herself and applies her experience as she goes, and she’s also brave and willing to try something new if that’s what her instincts are telling her. She’s not afraid to push people to their fullest potential and she supports them along the way; being uncomfortable is a pivotal point in growing or getting better in anything. Kelli leads with her passion and connection to people, both things that make her so charismatic. She’s very fun and committed and I continue to learn from her through the strong intentions she sets in her own life.

I've worked one-on-one with Kelli for the last two years. Working with her has not only kept my body in shape but it has kept my mind in shape. She always makes sure to check in with my body and see if there's anything that needs to be focused on. I’ve worked one-on-one with many different types of fitness trainers. Most focus on how to build strength in the moment, but Kelli makes sure to instill exercises that help you throughout your normal day. As a dancer, injury is your biggest fear, but working with Kelli’s knowledge has helped me keep my body stable and balanced. Kelli is the type of instructor that puts your overall health above everything else. She is such an amazing coach/trainer that you don't even realize she's not in the same room with you when doing an online zoom call! I feel so blessed to have someone like Kelli in my corner helping me become a healthier and stronger person every week.

Kelli is such a valuable teacher not only in my eyes but also in the fletcher community. She holds herself up to a certain standard and expects her clients to do the same. She teaches you how to understand why and what your body is doing so you know how to progress and move forward with the Pilates work. She does it in a way that makes you feel as though you can picture exactly what your body is doing even if you have no idea. She brings such power and spirit to this work that no other teacher does. You will come out of her sessions feeling as though you understand your body and know how to maintain it even out of the studio. Plus, she really knows how to make you sweat!
