Pilates By Sylvia Studio

METHOD

Sylvia’s intense, no-nonsense regimen continuously challenges clients while focusing on proper form and alignment. With widely varied exercises rather than a set routine, she ensures that her classes remain interesting and her clients motivated and engaged.

APPROACH

Sylvia’s approach to teaching is based on modern Pilates. Unlike classical Pilates, which adheres closely to the methodologies Joseph Pilates devised in the early 20th century, the BASI school of Pilates builds on top of his teachings, leveraging contemporary research in physical therapy and biomechanics.
