ABOUT KM5

Maranda is a dedicated and passionate aesthetician who has been in the beauty industry for nearly two years. A proud graduate of Douglas J Aveda in Royal Oak, Maranda obtained her professional certification in 2022, and since then, has been on a mission to deliver confidence and relaxation to her clients through her work.  At the heart of her practice lies a deep commitment to sanitation and ensuring comfort—a priority that manifests in each meticulous service she renders. Her passion for aesthetics is deeply personal. 

Maranda's journey into the world of skincare was fueled by her own struggles with dry skin and ingrown hairs, compounded by insecurities stemming from a lack of proper guidance in skincare products and their use. This personal connection to the struggles of skin care drives her empathetic approach and the tailored advice she provides, aiming to prevent others from facing similar challenges. Maranda's goals extend beyond the treatment room. She aspires to instill a sense of confidence, impart knowledge, and create an environment of relaxation for her guests. To her, the ultimate success is witnessing someone embrace their natural beauty and feel at ease in their own skin. In a world where appearances so often inform confidence, Maranda stands out as a beacon of genuine care and professional excellence. She doesn't just transform skin—she transforms lives, one empowered client at a time.

Laura brings both an educator's heart and a practitioner's spirit to her work at KM5. With a background in secondary education and accounting, Laura has always believed in the power of learning and discipline to transform everyday life. 

Her yoga journey began out of necessity during recovery from knee surgery, when she needed a practice that would meet her where she was. What started as rehabilitation became a lifelong commitment, and she has never looked back. Today, Laura teaches yoga and facilitates sound therapy sessions and is a certified Farmhouse Fresh practitioner. She is also completing her certification in reflexology and Pilates, bringing even more depth to her already diverse skill set. 

Outside the studio, she can be found tending her garden, exploring nature with her two dogs, spending time with her 2 adult children and grandkids, or caring for her small flock of chickens.

Helena came to breathwork the way many of us find the things that matter most, through lived experience. After navigating entrepreneurship, single motherhood, and her own healing journey, she witnessed firsthand what becomes possible when we slow down, tune in, and let the breath lead. That connection between breath, the nervous system, and emotional well being became something she could not walk away from.

Today, Helena brings that same curiosity and compassion into every session. She believes healing is deeply individual, and she is committed to creating experiences that feel safe, personal, and grounded in the present moment. Her approach is rooted in authenticity and the simple but powerful truth that people deserve to feel at home in themselves.

Currently pursuing a degree in business management, Helena is building something bigger at the intersection of wellness, creativity, and community. When she is not in the studio, you will find her near the water, deep in a philosophy conversation, or dreaming up her next venture alongside her two boys.

Chantal came to Mat Pilates the way many of the best teachers do: through her own transformation. What started as a personal practice became something she could not keep to herself. The way breath and intentional movement reshaped how she felt in her body, how she stood, how she carried herself, how she felt from the inside out, was too powerful not to share.

Today, Chantal brings that same energy into every class she teaches at KM5. Her approach to Mat Pilates is rooted in the belief that strength is not just physical. When you learn to move with control and breathe with purpose, something deeper shifts. Posture improves. Confidence builds. You start to feel at home in your own body.

Her classes are welcoming to all levels. Whether you are stepping onto the mat for the first time or deepening a practice you have had for years, Chantal meets you where you are and guides you toward feeling strong, supported, and genuinely connected to yourself.

Chantal is currently exploring advanced training in Reformer Pilates, continuing her commitment to growing as a practitioner so she can bring even more depth to her clients.
