I can’t believe how far I’ve come in a few months. Kristin was referred to me by my PT to help recover from an injury and work through disordered eating. I’d seen another dietitian but she didn’t “get” what it means to be a dancer. Kristin was able to meet me where I was at and help me to fuel not only my ballet classes, but my cross-training. She has never been like the food police, she has just taught me how to make the best food decisions for me. My recovery was great, I’m dancing better than ever, and I love that I know how to make the right food choices for myself. It has taken a load of stress off me just knowing that I know how to make good food choices and the proof is in my performance. —Taylor, pre-professional dancer
After [Kristin] spoke to UBT, I started incorporating recovery and recovery foods into my plan. Omg! I can’t believe the difference it made. I am more defined and I am dancing stronger than ever. Thank you!!– Diana, Professional Dancer
I wanted to work with a trusted dietitian because I have heard of the benefits of a healthy diet not only in my sport but in my life as well. The benefits from working with Kristin were better performance in my sport, I’ve been more alert, had less brain fog and felt great overall. I didn’t really know what to expect going into it, I was just hoping to have a better performance in my sport. Not only did I run faster (I run Cross Country and track) but my school life was easier and more enjoyable. I would recommend Kristin not only to anyone who would like to take their game to the next level but also to those who want to feel better and to be more productive. –Ryan C., Air Force Academy Cadet
After just one meeting with Kristin, I saw a difference. She made a couple of easy suggestions that I could do right away. The difference was a noticeable change in my stamina and energy. As a yoga instructor, it’s made a world of difference. Thank you, Kristin!!! — Mao, Yoga Instructor
My daughter went to a seminar Kristin gave on nutrition for dancers. Since then, her eating habits have improved and I am thrilled! Not only that, she uses the bento Kristin recommended and now puts together her own healthy lunches. — Tanya, Ballet Mom
We discovered Kristin at The Ballet Alliance this year! We are so proud to see our dancers followed through with the mindful, wholesome, and fun suggestions from an expert dietitian nutritionist. — Marin Ballet
I was hesitant to work with a dietitian because I thought it meant having lots of rules. It was only because my doctor recommended Kristin so highly that I even scheduled that initial call and I’m so glad I did. My eating disorder and anxiety are so much better and my dancing is stronger than ever. She never was like the food police, but more like a loving coach who helped me meet my goals. It really changed my life for the better. —Anna, Dancer
I was referred to Kristin by another health care provider who treats me for hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Kristin helped me to figure out what was working for me, what wasn’t, and how to fix it. Within a couple of months, I felt better than I had in years. Kristin was able to pinpoint that HOW I was eating was impacting my health as much as WHAT I was eating. Her insights made all the difference. — Rachelle, Client
Kristin taught my husband and I more about my condition in one session than in all my other medical visits combined. She was able to help me understand what was going on with my body and how the food I wasn’t eating was part of the problem. My doctor had told me to get rid of a lot of foods and I was down to eating about 5 foods regularly. Kristin helped me to bring back more foods into my life. That helped my body to get more nourishment and it helped me to feel more normal. It helped my physical health and mental health. I’m a work in progress, but it was a huge step in feeling more normal. — Rebecca, Client
[My daughter] gained a lot of weight over quarantine, which I attributed to stress, snacking, and having more junk food in the house. My goal was to have Kristin teach [my daughter] about intuitive eating. Kristin reviewed all her medical and nutrition history and saw a medical condition that was probably the source of the weight gain, not just mindless eating. She used a therapeutic diet to help get the medical condition under control. [My daughter] lost the weight and cleared up a couple other symptoms from her medical issue all in one. They continued to work together on intuitive eating and healthy eating for her needs and she’s thriving. Parents, if you’re looking for someone to help your child, I highly recommend Kristin.– Janette, Mother of a Client
My best friend worked with Kristin to help with her ballet training. After I saw how well it worked for her, I wanted to work with her, too. My goal was to lose weight. I had been struggling for a couple years and had tried dieting without much success. Well, I lost weight the first time and then gained it back and was on a never-ending roller coaster of weight loss and gain. Kristin helped me to make connections to what was really behind many of my food choices. She also helped me to finally get off the dieting roller coaster. My clothes fit so much better and I feel confident in my food choices. I have a lot more energy during class and my teachers are happy with how my dancing is progressing. I can enjoy dancing again without being totally distracted by what my body looks like in the mirror. — Emma, Client
