Christina Pike is the most accidental of entrepreneurs. Educated and trained as a registered nurse, she has long had a passionate curiosity about her own health and fitness – how best to fuel her body and train in order to keep herself fit and well so that she can be the very best wife and mother possible. She has long been an avid runner and a certified barre and reformer Pilates instructor, but when she began offering personal training sessions to a half-dozen clients in January of 2020, she had zero intentions of opening an actual boutique studio. However, when six clients became 66 clients, and two Pilates reformers turned into
a demand for four reformers with a constant waitlist for class times, it was clear– re|form
by Christina Pike had, undeniably, become a business. Today, a year and a half after re|form was conceived, Pike has over 100 clients and a team of 10 instructors with studio locations in Gulfport as well as Bay Saint Louis.
She and her husband Brandon currently live in Gulfport with their Brady Bunch blend of six kids: Malerie (25), Laney (20), Avery (16), Sam (14), Lily (13) and Annabelle (11).
