Cats On Mats: Purrlates With EHS
When: Select Friday Evenings @ 7:00 PM and Select Wednesday Evenings @ 5:00 PM
Where: 1266 Valencia Street San Francisco, CA, 94110
Price: $38.00
About The Class: Each class lasts around 30-40 minutes, giving you time to mingle with cats, sip on a glass of sparkling wine (Fridays Only), or shop in our cat-centric gift shop for the remainder of the hour.
What to know: We will be hosting our mew Purrlates class in our cat lounge with 20+ cats. We recommend you wear a tee shirt or long-sleeved shirt, as many of our cats like to hop on backs during these sessions (it can be a little unpurrdictable). We also advise that you show up ready to go in your Purrlates workout outfit, as we only have one restroom for changing and to bring a water bottle just in case you get parched during your session. *It is optional to bring your own mat, but we will be providing clean pilates mats as well.
About Your Friday Class EHS Pilates Teacher: Robin discovered Pilates in 2011, a few years after being hit by a car. Not only did she find it to be the most effective physical rehabilitation for her injuries, but it also dramatically improved her overall well-being. Her teaching promotes internally focused movement while de-emphasizing aesthetics. She understands that movement is not one-size-fits-all and strives to help her students discover what works best for their unique bodies.
In addition to being KitTea’s mew purrlates teacher, she also teaches down the street at EHS (without cats). There you can challenge yourself on one of their many reformers.
When she’s not teaching she can be found selling property and riding bikes around San Francisco and Marin, or trapped under a very opinionated 9-year old tuxie.

About Your Wednesday Class EHS Pilates Teacher Karen Goldstein
Karen was first introduced to Pilates when only 18 years old after developing knee problems while studying ballet in NYC. She was sent to the original Pilates studio run by Romana Kryzanowska, a direct disciple of Joseph Pilates. After returning home to the Bay Area, she continued her ballet training with, as her teacher noticed, “much better alignment”.
There was no Pilates on the West Coast for about 10 years, but when Karen continued to have alignment and pain issues from dancing, she resumed her Pilates training under the guidance of Jennifer Stacey in San Francisco. She completed her Teacher Training Certification under Ellie Herman and has also studied extensively with Lizz Roman learning rehabilitation techniques based on the principles of Janda.
Karen likes to teach Pilates with an emphasis on form and how it applies to functional life movement. She likes to educate her students to have more freedom in movement, and strength, and to learn ways to help themselves when their body/pain issues arise so that they can get along with more ease in their everyday lives.
