Kathi Ells, Arbutus Managing Director

Kathi Ells is a born & raised Victoria and Oak Bay gal. She has been in the fitness industry since the early 80’s and is still very active, teaching several online Pilates, Yoga, and Spin classes per week.

Kathi loves to travel both near and far and when she’s not working or teaching, she spends time with her partner and her sweet pooch, Freska. She has a beautiful son who is currently in Ontario at University and two step-kids who she adores. She loves snow skiing, water sports, hiking and generally keeping active. Sewing, designing, and music are a few of Kathi’s passions and she lives with an attitude of gratitude and positive energy!

As the Arbutus Managing Director, she’s often tucked away in the back office but please don’t hesitate to go back and say hi.
