I’m Kelly Williams, the owner of Restorative Fitness and a corrective exercise specialist. For over 12 years, I have been dedicated to helping individuals restore posture, flexibility, balance, and healthy joint movement.

​

I specialize in corrective exercise because it delivers measurable, life-changing results. Witnessing clients transform into energized, confident individuals with renewed physical and mental resilience is deeply rewarding. However, my journey into the fitness industry began not with a passion for exercise, but over two decades ago in graduate school, while I was pursuing a different career path.

​

The rigorous demands of graduate school motivated me to prioritize a healthy lifestyle. To balance my schedule and justify time away from studying, I became a certified group fitness instructor. What began as a practical decision quickly evolved into a passion as I discovered a love for teaching fitness. Collecting group fitness certifications became a fulfilling endeavor.

​

After completing graduate school, I continued teaching fitness classes at local colleges while navigating the job market. One day, a student approached me after class to share that attending my sessions had helped her overcome a diabetes diagnosis. This moment was transformative. It became clear that fitness was more than a hobby; it was a powerful tool for changing lives.

​

Inspired, I shifted my focus entirely and became a certified personal trainer. This marked the beginning of my commitment to improving lives through fitness. Within six years, I advanced to an associate director position at a corporate wellness company. While this role appeared to be the culmination of my career goals, it lacked the fulfillment I sought.

​

Despite my dedication, many of my fitness clients struggled to achieve their goals, which left both them and me frustrated. Determined to provide better outcomes, I delved deeper into fitness education. This journey led me to corrective exercise—a methodology designed to address physical limitations, reduce pain, and improve overall mobility and quality of life.

​

Corrective exercise became the cornerstone of my practice. It empowered me to align my expertise with my mission: helping people feel better, move better, and live better. Establishing Restorative Fitness allowed me to focus exclusively on delivering impactful, client-centered care.

Every day, I am motivated by the opportunity to guide individuals toward a more active, pain-free, and fulfilling life. Restorative Fitness is not just a business—it is a platform for meaningful change, and I am proud to lead it with purpose and expertise.
