Kaleena Hurlburt was drawn to the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® while dancing professionally because of the elegant manner with which it strengthens, mobilizes, and conditions the body. Since 2009, Kaleena has studied with Master Trainers, Nora Heiber, Alcia Head, Elizabeth Dawson, and Domini Anne. The foundation of her studies have been with Master Trainer and studio owner of San Francisco GYROTONIC®, Debra Rose where she began her teaching career in 2012. At San Francisco GYROTONIC®, Kaleena worked extensively with aspiring professional dancers in both the Alonzo King LINES Ballet Training Program and Alonzo King LINES Ballet BFA at Dominican University. Originally from Seaside, she is happy to be back on the Peninsula with her husband and two young children, and honored to be a member of the Mindful Movement Studio team!
In addition to her work teaching, Kaleena is a certified Birth and Post Partum Doula, and Certified Childbirth Educator. Doula packages include Pre and Post Natal Applications of The Gyrotonic® Method.
