Angelina Pilates was started in 2010 within a home studio. In 2013, we expanded to a commercial space in Bellevue WA. A few years later, we returned to the home studio. In 2025, construction was started on a stand alone studio next to Angelina's home in Redmond WA. We look forward to welcoming clients back in January 2026.
Angelina Kidd
My first Pilates session was in 2005. Pilates took a central position in my fitness activities in 2007. Pilates instructor training has been with STOTT PILATES® in Seattle (Bodycenter Studios) and Portland (Pacific NW Pilates) as well as MERRITHEW™ classes across the US, Canada and Europe. In addition to my Pilates experience, I have a background in dance. From the age of 14 while growing up in Hawai'i, I studied and performed hula. My hula teaching experience includes seven years of group classes and one-on-one training. I have been a guest Pilates, Yoga and fitness instructor at luxury resorts in Mexico, Costa Rica, Jamaica, and Turks & Caicos.
To keep myself strong and healthy in my mid 50s, I practice Pilates, Yoga, walk, and hike. Pilates is central to all my workouts. It keeps me injury-free, strong and flexible. Most importantly, it reminds me of the mind-body connection.
In addition to movement practices, I am an artist/owner of a light heist (fine art business). I specialize in the handmade: historical photographic processes, constructed imagery collage and paper arts. I received my Master of Fine Arts from Lesley University School of Art & Design in Boston and have been featured in galleries and exhibitions around the country.
