Nadia Kean - Instructor
Specialities Peak Pilates Certified Pilates Instructor
Teaching Since 2022
Nadia was introduced to Pilates in 2013 while she was playing high-level roller derby in Austin, Texas. Pilates was the missing link in her training routine and after taking up the practice and implementing it multiple times per week she found that she was stronger, better balanced, more focused and less likely to get injured. In 2021 she was finally able to commence teacher training; she did so at the Pilates Barn in Austin, Texas through Peak Pilates.
In addition to teaching pilates, Nadia has been coaching rowing since 2000 and is a Level III USRowing Coach. In her previous life, Nadia coached roller derby for 15 years, coaching across five different continents before retiring from the sport in 2018. Nadia has a special interest in understanding how athletes think, learn and move and she utilizes this curiosity in her teaching. Nadia believes that all humans would benefit from learning Pilates and she encourages athletes to incorporate Pilates fundamentals when she coaches rowing and skating.
In her free time Nadia goes on adventures with her family.
