Our Teachers

We take a personal, open and friendly approach to Pilates. We believe that asking questions and having fun should be a part of your Pilates experience.

Kenzie

Mckenzie Petterson opened Moving Moxie Pilates in 2008 after training with the Core Dynamics Pilates program. Her love of Pilates started in 2002 when she realized the amazing impact it made on her body and overall health. Mckenzie’s ultimate goal is to see a smile on everyone’s face as they make their best effort in class, be it a group mat class, duet or private lesson. Kenzie was trained by Core Dynamics and is PMA certified and utilizes every opportunity to continue her development as a Pilates instructor and small business owner.

Kenzie grew up just minutes away from the studio and loves that she still calls Portland home.

Jenny

Jenny discovered her love of Pilates while training to become a Certified Personal Trainer and knew she wanted to share Pilate’s ability to improve strength, flexibility and mental focus with others. Jenny trained in the Core Dynamics Pilates program and is certified through the PMA. She believes that through Pilates people can learn to appreciate their bodies and move with ease. “My goal is to make Pilates a positive experience for those I teach, regardless of their age or skill level.”

Jenny was born and raised in the Kansas City area. She and her husband, Sam, settled in Portland in 2006 after graduating from college in the Midwest.
