Liv Urquhart is a passionate educator, movement specialist, and the founder of The Body Balance Studio, dedicated to making movement literacy more accessible across Canada. With over nine years in the wellness industry, Liv blends science-backed expertise with a holistic approach, empowering individuals to move with confidence, strength, and intention.

She holds an Honours Bachelor’s Degree in Human Kinetics, an Advanced Diploma in Massage Therapy, and multiple certifications in Mat Pilates, Lagree, Functional Movement Screening (FMS), Yoga (200hr YTT), and Holistic Nutrition. Liv’s teaching style combines traditional Pilates principles with contemporary movement science, ensuring every class is both accessible and transformative—whether you’re deepening your personal practice or stepping into a leadership role as an instructor.

At the heart of Liv’s work is a bigger mission: to improve movement literacy and create more opportunities for mindful movement in communities across the country. Through her 100-hour Mat Pilates Certification, she’s training the next generation of instructors—helping them bring Pilates to both urban centers and remote areas, where movement education is needed most.

The more instructors she supports, the more people gain access to the life-changing benefits of movement and fitness. This ripple effect inspires communities to take ownership of their health, combat sedentary lifestyles, and ultimately reduce chronic disease rates across Canada.

Pilates is more than just movement—it’s a tool for transformation. Olivia’s mission is to help individuals build strength, restore balance, and create lasting change—one movement at a time.
