Early life
Prout began her acting career at the age of ten after being cast in a commercial opposite NHL superstar Wayne Gretzky. Speaking about her desire to start acting, Kirsten recalled that it was the only way she thought she could turn being a Disney Princess into a career.[citation needed]

An avid martial artist, Kirsten received a Black Belt in Taekwondo at the age of 13. That year, she was cast in Elektra, and performed her own stunts in the film.
After completing high school and the final season of Kyle XY, Prout attended McGill University, where she majored in English literature. In an interview with The Province, then 18-year-old Prout said of attending university:
"I grew up on sets where I was treated like I was 25... In university you're in classes with incredibly intelligent people. You realize you're not an expert on everything.
