PILATES IN PARADISE

Our highly trained staff with extensive qualifications allow us to offer personal training, stretch therapy, silver sneakers, water aerobics, Parkinson’s specialties, and yoga. We always have cancellations and openings!
PLEASE!!! If you have requests, LET US KNOW! We are ever evolving to meet the needs of our amazing clients!
The BEST way to communicate with us is through the studio business cell phone line (305) 942-0808. Email works too! info@pilatesinparadise.net. I will personally take good care of you! And of course, your concierge, Rupert, can always help you book with us!
Looking forward to seeing you!
