I teach Pilates and Yoga virtually via ZOOM/FaceTime. I love helping people develop a strong connection to their body through movement. Pilates Essence is a Classical Pilates Studio in the heart of West Los Angeles.
This is a very unique studio. You will feel like you are a VIP. There are no more than 2 teachers teaching at one time. Private sessions and Semi-Private sessions only taught here. We have top of the line equipment, and teach like the creator himself "Mr. Joseph Pilates". Experience what all the hype of "Classical Pilates/New York Method/ Traditional Pilates" is all about.
Operating as usual
Did you know that I teach group Yoga on Mondays at 8:30 PST? It’s a great class, and a great way to start out your week. DM me if you’d like to take class with me. This Monday is a holiday, so there are no excuses 😉
Pilates is a great way to start off your week! If I had to choose one day out of the week to do Pilates, Monday would be best! It sets the tone for your week. Pilates puts you back into alignment, helps you stand taller, puts you back into your power house (aka your CORE), improves your posture, gives your spine the flexibility to move up and down, side to side, and around. The benefits are endless! Need help?! I got you! DM me to schedule your appointment today! No more waiting. I have 3 available options, in person (Brentwood/Redondo Beach), and ZOOM online. I hope to see you soon!
The key to longevity is stretching. If you want to live a long life, you need to stretch. It’s that simple. sundayselfcare
It’s with Mermaid @patricia.bruno.agentthatcares The W.C. is one of the smallest apparatus to work on. The smaller the apparatus, the more challenging Pilates is. In this pic Patricia is practicing Mermaid 🧜🏼♀️
It’s Pilates is a great way to start your day!
Don’t forget to stretch your quads! We’re quad dominant human beings. The body is smart, and will have you believing your working your core, but you’re really using your quads! Know the difference, but first create the space by stretching them out. If you don’t have access to a ladder barrel, you can lie on the floor with one leg straight, the other bent; and lean back. Don’t know what I mean? Reach out to me, and I’ll teach you. That’s what I’m here for, I’m here to help you!
It’s in the Pilates world, and all I have to say is “I’m so glad!” That’s my cure song on repeat. I have a lot to be glad about, and I’m feeling gratitude for it ALL!

It’s time I post a non March Matness post. Teaser on the Wunda Chair! @nataliedayyc teaser is so grateful. Way to go!👏🏼 Keep up the good work!
The Neck Pull
Thank you everyone who has liked/shared /viewed my March Matness posts. It’s a good feeling to share the work with you. Much LOVE! In this video I am practicing the Double Leg Kick.

The Swan 🦢 Dive
Corkscrew. This young girl has been doing Pilates for over six months now! Her personal practice is on point. She even started teaching her Mom Pilates. How adorable is that?
Open Leg Rocker aka Rocker with Open Legs. I love that the ocean had to touch me. That is nature, unpredictable. #
A hug is medicine to the heart. If you want to be happier, and healthier start hugging more. Science proves that regular hugs with those closest to you, even if brief, can have especially positive effects on your brain and body. Thank you @mggz711 for a great hug 🤗
The Spine Stretch Forward. I love this exercise because you really get a good stretch in your entire spine, and a nice lift in your low abdomen. This is one of the exercises that I learned how to deepen my lower abs.
The Double Leg Stretch on the long box/reformer. I like to have my clients practice the Series of Five aka the Ab Series here. Practicing here gives them a nice challenge.
The Single Leg Stretch. Have I mentioned she’s in her 80’s?! You’re never too old to do/start Pilates. Let her be an inspiration to you! 💫💫💫
The Rolling Back, or as I know it Rolling Like a Ball
The Roll-Over
The Roll Up
It begins with THE HUNDRED
Spend time in sunlight. Vitamin D is often referred to as “the sunshine vitamin” because the sun is one of the best sources of this nutrient.

Tapping into her inner ballerina 🩰 on the Cadillac with ballet stretches @patricia.bruno.agentthatcares Doesn’t she look beautiful, and elongated?! That’s one of the things that I love about BS on the Cadillac. They make you feel two inches taller when you’re done. Way to go Patricia!
