WHY CHOOSE GOLD COAST PILATES THERAPY?
PT-DESIGNED PROGRAMMING
Founded by Dr. Kristen Hardin, a physical therapist trained in classical Pilates, GCPT's programming combines clinical expertise with evidence-based movement. Sessions are rooted in Joseph Pilates' principles to bring every body an authentic challenge while offering modifications for therapeutic outcomes.
REAL ATTENTION
Semi-private training means a maximum of 6 people per reformer class. That means we see your form, we notice what's out of alignment, and we respectfully correct it. You'll feel the difference—and you'll know you're doing it right.
NO JUDGMENT. NO COMPETITION. NO EGO.
We're the antidote to gym intimidation. You come as you are—recovering from injury, postpartum, navigating menopause, or simply ready to move again—and we meet you there with optimism. We're an inclusive studio community.
WHAT CLIENTS COME FOR
Sound familiar?
✓ Back pain, neck tension, or creaky knees that got worse with online videos or random gym workouts
✓ Pelvic floor issues (like leaking or pain) that no one talks about and kegels don't fix
✓ Postpartum recovery (diastasis recti, core weakness, safely rebuilding a fitness regimen)
✓ Perimenopause or menopause symptoms (brain fog, sleep issues, mood swings, shoulder pain and stiffness)
✓ Fear of aging poorly—you want to move confidently at 60, 70, 80+
✓ Recovering from injury or surgery
You're not alone. And you don't need a punishing workout— you need smart movement that addresses your body from head to toe!
Intimidated at First. Hooked for Two Years.
I was so intimidated when I started Pilates, but Gold Coast is so kind and accessible that I felt welcomed from my first class. The classes are small and the instructors are wonderful, and I saw improvements in my strength right away. I’ve been regularly attending for about 2 years now, and I still always look forward to my classes. I highly recommend Gold Coast for people of all ages who are looking to invest in their strength and fitness and to be of a supportive and welcoming community.

From Surgery Recovery to 100 Classes Strong
The crew at GCPT is so supportive, welcoming and knowledgeable! I have just had my 100th class this year and my practice has been key to my recovery from bunion reconstruction surgery and overall improvement in balance and gaining strength. My classes are my favorite part of my wellness practice, a very special place!

6 Years of Re-Injury. Finally, a Solution.
I can’t recommend Gold Coast enough! I started with a private lesson where Kristen took the time to understand my goals and injury history and taught me how to use the reformer. I’ve been going at least weekly since, and classes with Kristen and Sophie have been great every time! I feel encouraged to keep coming back and challenging myself. Kristen has been so thorough with adjustments for my injury and this is the longest I’ve gone without a re-injury in the past 6 years. I just hit my 30 class mark and am excited to continue. Thank you!
