This was an ideal place for me to take Pilates in SP (don't think they speak much English so don't…read moreget your hopes up as I never bothered to try). The facilities are impeccably clean. The instructors are all very well trained and friendly. The classes are challenging, fun and suited to your level. They always bring different tools and new exercises into the mix to keep it interesting, and the studio is never overly crowded so that you feel like you are being rushed off of a machine but rather spacious, light and airy. It's not cheap, but it's worth the great service level. Admin are friendly and responsive as well.

The teacher is the key here. Marcela Baratella is one of the best Pilates teachers in São Paulo…read more Her focus and knowledge is astonishing. I've tried to do in different places but none got near.

Definitely not your mom's yoga classes!…read more 1. Cute studio very close to Vila Madalena's heart, it's in VM but not in the heart of it, which makes it even better, for parking, not overly noisy. Actually no noise at all during classes. 2. Temperature is kept at 40C/104F at most times, making me more bendy. Since I love the heat, I didn't have any discomfort, have brought friends here that were not used to, they first felt it was rough but after one or two sessions they enjoyed the temperature. 3. Teachers are awesome! Have taken classes from Amanda, Alexandra, Stephanie in English, and Andrea which IMHO is awesome, intense classes and good attention to detail. 4. Parking situation is easy on most times, Saturdays since there is a street farmers market, it can be tough, but no fret! There are a parking lot right across the street which charges R$8 per time and not per hour! 5. Lockers in the bathroom! Bring your own lock and a towel since they have nice shower boxes! 6. Fridge is packed with goodness: fresh cut fruit bowls, a variety of kombutcha flavours, cold water bottles. Also, there is drinking water on tap! Why not 5 stars then? I wish teachers would communicate better in how to land in to some positions, walk through each step carefully, be more detailed oriented, tell us the benefits of each asana, point out options instead of correcting poses for injured people. Also expand their variety of classes, would love to see more vinyasa classes. But overall, this is a great studio and much better than high end gym's in town. Plus they have a R$ 99 introductory plan for 20 consecutive days! Can't beat that in SP!

Absolutely love this studio. I practice vinyasa daily in California and haven't found a studio that…read moreI feel so comfortable in since traveling! Great daily classes. Lots of Birman and other mixes that they've come up with themselves. Really great staff and accommodating to me seeing as I don't speak Portuguese.
