Kimber McQueen

Stott Pilates Instructor Trainer, Owner

Kimber McQueen is the Program Director and Owner of BALANCE. She has a BFA in Performance and Choreography from Virginia Commonwealth University and a BA in Sociology from James Madison University. While rehabilitating a broken foot that prevented her from dancing, Kimber discovered pilates. She was instantly hooked.

In May of 1999, she received her certification in STOTT PILATES, one of the most highly respected and sought after certifications in the field of pilates. Later that year, she opened her first studio.

During her career, Kimber has logged over 10,000 teaching hours and that experience has resulted in the development of a clear and precise teaching style dedicated to helping her clients achieve measurable results. In 2004, Kimber was invited to become a STOTT PILATES Instructor Trainer.

In August of 2004, BALANCE was named the STOTT PILATES Certification Center of Virginia joining the distinguished ranks of only 27 facilities in the US with ability to train instructors in STOTT PILATES. BALANCE began its first series of certification courses in January of 2005 and to date Kimber has personally trained more than 5o instructors from all over Virginia.

Kimber also enjoys practicing Ashtanga and is an avid student of the Alexander Technique, a mind-body technique that improves posture, increases freedom of movement, and reduces physical tension.
