FEATURED IN:
Hi, I'm Christa Gurka.
When I opened my first Pilates studio in 2008, I didn’t plan on becoming a business coach for other Pilates studio owners, PTs, and wellness professionals. Heck- I didn’t even think I could break $300,000 in revenue. I just loved helping people move better, and I knew I didn’t want to work for someone else forever.
But a few years in, I found myself in the same place many health + wellness business owners end up — exhausted, overworked, and wondering why I thought this would give me money, freedom, and impact. I was worn OUT.
At the time, I was a mom of two young boys. My husband traveled for work, and I was managing a growing team while opening a second Pilates studio. From the outside, it looked like success, but behind the scenes, I was crashing out.
My team could feel it, our profit margins were showing it — and I was about to snap from the stress of it all. This period was probably the worst of my life, but it forced me to face the truth: I couldn’t keep operating the business like this.
"I think this coaching has been the most personal I’ve had. The advice you give is specific to each person's goals. It gives me trust that I know exactly what I need to be working on."

I made a decision in 2018: I would build my business so it could run without me.
That decision changed everything. I literally called it: Operation Christa gets hit by a bus
I systemized, delegated, and restructured everything from hiring to scheduling to finances. As a result, Pilates in the Grove grew into a multi-location, seven-figure business that generated well over $1 million a year…
…and in 2025, I sold my business and walked away with seven figures in my personal bank account.
