Katie Nelson

Katie Nelson is a Pilates instructor and certified personal trainer based in a small town. She has been teaching Pilates for almost a year on a part-time basis while pursuing her education, with her schedule varying from teaching up to five classes a day to none depending on demand and her student commitments. Nelson is currently a senior working toward her Bachelor's of Exercise Science, which she anticipates completing in May, and she holds a National Academy of Sports Medicine personal training certification that she received in May 2025. She plans to attend physical therapy school to earn her doctorate and envisions a future career that combines physical therapy with Pilates, potentially in her own practice. In addition to her professional pursuits, Nelson is a member of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority and participates in volunteer efforts through Letters of Love, writing letters to children with terminal illnesses, and through her sorority's work with the Ronald McDonald House, including 5Ks, pop tab collections, and donations.
