Violet (Weng) Hei Kong

Violet came to the United States in 2018 to pursue a degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering in Georgia Tech. She discovered Pilates in 2020 during the pandemic and worked with an extraordinary instructor in Asia, where Violet learned about anatomy, movement and the body’s capabilities. During this time, Violet was able to debunk many health myths and acquired a new perspective and respect for her body.  Pilates continued to be a path to unwinding and decompression for her. When she moved to the Bay Area, she discovered Urban Body San Jose! She is currently pursuing her Power Pilates Comprehensive Program under Svea McMath. Violet’s goal as an instructor is to help people learn and feel good about their body, just as her first instructor did for her!
