I may be employed here, but I chose to practice Pilates here with our amazing co-owners, senior instructors Nicole and Keion--both graduates of the prestigious master teacher program, The Work.
If you want the real deal when it comes to Pilates, there is nowhere better and no one better than the two of them. Their philosophy is less talking, more hands-on cueing, which they learned from their mentor, first-generation teacher Jay Grimes (who still teaches teachers at Strong Body Pilates every Tuesday!). This is authentic Pilates the way Joe Pilates intended, and these ladies are passing it down with their expert knowledge and care.
I have frequented pretty much every classical studio in the greater LA area, and it doesn't get better than this! While I work at several different studios around town, I only study here, from Keion and Nicole or from other graduates and/or teachers of The Work. The fact that this is the only place where I want to continue my education and deepen my practice speaks volumes. Be like me: make Nicole and Keion your teachers today. Your (strong) body will thank you!
