Charis Koh is a passionate advocate for the transformative power of movement and making connections. Over the past 14 years, she has worked as a dance coach and choreographer, and though the process discovered Pilates and GYROTONIC, and began using these practices to help individuals improve their relationship with their bodies and enhance physical health.

Charis has been doing one-on-one work with clients to aid in injury recovery, overcome physical limitations, and achieve greater freedom of movement for the last 12 years. Her deep interest in these processes led her to study various disciplines, including psychology, physiology, neurobiology, various coaching and training frameworks. However, Charis’s true joy lies in being connected to life, learning what matters, and understanding the interconnectedness of the human experience. She believes in crossing thresholds and building bridges, this interconnectedness is crucial as it unifies and resolves what needs to be resolved, and helps what is lost to be found and honours what needs to live on.

Charis believes in a whole-person approach to movement and healing, emphasizing choice and precise timing. She values authenticity and explores the relationships between disciplines to find simple solutions to complex issues, bridging science and art, practice and being.

Currently, Charis channels her experiences through her platform, Hello Body. As she enters a new phase, she aims to guide and mentor aspiring Movement and Pilates teachers, sharing her knowledge and acting as a sounding board and cheerleader to help uncover each person's unique wisdom and gifts in their work.

Charis also seeks to share insights about the body, somatics, and embodiment with coaches, educators, teachers, wellness facilitators, and anyone curious about these topics. The bottom-up, body-oriented approach deepens connections to the self and others, fostering empathy and love for one another. Charis’s ultimate goal is to build a supportive network that empowers individuals and bridges disciplines, making a positive impact on the world.
