About Me

Kim Munoz of Nola Pilates and Natalie Averill of SCULPT are both from New Orleans and have been collectively teaching Pilates and fitness for over 15 years. Their paths crossed in 2009 when Natalie sought a better way to work out her body after years of running and high-intensity workouts, and Kim became her Pilates instructor. It was a professional relationship that would grow into a mentorship, friendship, and now travel partner. After 13 years of building and owning one of the largest Pilates studios in New Orleans, Nola Pilates, Kim would pass this business on to one of her leading instructors, with Natalie purchasing and taking the helm in 2019, renaming the studio SCULPT New Orleans. Natalie has continued to lead the market in class offerings and top-notch instruction. She has continued to build on what Kim started and has added TRX, HIIT, and Yoga to the Pilates community. They both strive to lift others in mind, body, and spirit but also show them what their bodies and minds are capable of through movement. And now, after doing this in a studio environment for all these years, it’s time to take it on the road to some of the most exotic places in the world. They hope you will join them on these wellness adventures as they desire to build a solid community that loves to travel and experience life alongside them. When they are not teaching, running businesses, and traveling, they are at home with family and friends in New Orleans, enjoying music, food, and fun. Natalie is married with two young children, one boy, and one girl, and Kim is an empty nester with all three boys now on their own. They cannot wait for you to join them!
