Kendra Gowdy
Registered Physiotherapist

Kendra Gowdy is a Registered Physiotherapist and dance teacher with a passion for working with children and dancers. She works with children of all ages, from infants to teens, and enjoys partnering with families to support each child's development, movement, and individual goals. 

Kendra holds a Bachelor of Health Science in Kinesiology with Honours from Ontario Tech University and a Master of Physical Therapy from the University of Toronto. Having grown up immersed in the dance industry, she trained in a variety of styles, including tap, jazz, ballet, acrobatics, pointe, lyrical, and contemporary. Her experiences as both a dancer and dance teacher sparked her interest in healthcare and inspired her to help bridge the gap in resources and support available to dancers.

Kendra's clinical interests include paediatric physiotherapy and dance rehabilitation. She enjoys supporting children through developmental milestones, building foundational movement skills, and helping dancers develop the strength, coordination, and mobility needed to meet the demands of their sport. She uses a combination of play-based activities and purposeful movement strategies to create individualized treatment plans that are engaging, functional, and tailored to each client's goals.

Kendra strives to create a welcoming, supportive environment where children, families, and dancers feel comfortable and encouraged to challenge themselves. Her approach emphasizes open communication, creativity, and a whole-body perspective, helping every client build confidence, celebrate progress, and feel successful along the way.
