About Kristy

Kristy enjoys using Exercise Physiology and Pilates as a way to encourage patients to feel their best and regain their health and fitness.

After falling in love with Pilates through her own musculoskeletal rehabilitation experience, her passion for Exercise Physiology and Pilates flourished. Kristy draws on her knowledge and experience to manage her own health and fitness goals. She enjoys participating in many charity events whether it be running a half marathon or an ocean swim event.

Kristy also enjoys yoga, swimming, running and photography. She’s also quite creative, dabbling in art and creating delicious desserts!

You’ll find me in my spare time: Taking photographs while out on a nature hike or lazing around the beach with my gorgeous dog. I am also a lover of coffee and enjoy cafe hopping with my family and friends.

My philosophy on Exercise Physiology: Movement is medicine. Creating mindful movements to connect within your body establishes an optimal foundation for daily living.

Favourite place on the Sunshine Coast: Any one of our beautiful Sunshine Coast beaches and waterfalls.

“Focus on your 'why' and enjoy moving your body!" - Kristy Kneen, Exercise Physiologist.
