Jocelyn

Ericeira, Jul 2024

When I first visited Ericeira Pilates, I was impressed by how bright and clean the studio was. The instructor made sure my sessions were tailored to my personal abilities, and the equipment was modern and well-maintained. I enjoyed the perfect class size, which created a personal yet interactive experience, and appreciated how the sessions were organized so I could progress at my own pace.

Lisbon, Nov 2024

Over the years, I've developed a deep appreciation for the personalized Gyrotonic lessons I have twice a week, tailored just for me. Bernardo’s empathetic nature shines through as he listens and gently works through any problems, making each session a holistic and mentally uplifting experience. His dedication and honesty create a safe space, and I am grateful for how he's helped me rebuild after numerous challenges.

Cascais, Oct 2025

It was my first ever experience doing a reformer class and I found it enjoyable, challenging but in a good way. I really enjoyed the teachers - the instructors were very caring. The environment was incredibly clean, immaculate actually, with a very welcoming, light and airy feel. I’ve only been once so far but I would like to do it again.

Dos and Don’ts as an expat

Key dos and don’ts for finding your ideal Pilates studio

Do’s
Do Prioritize Cleanliness and Hygiene
Choose a Pilates studio that emphasizes cleanliness and hygiene. A spotless environment not only enhances your workout experience but also demonstrates the instructor's commitment to client health and safety.
Do Seek Personalized Training Approaches
Look for instructors who tailor workouts based on your individual needs and fitness levels. Personalized training ensures that exercises are suitable and challenging without risking injury, making your Pilates journey more effective.
Do Consider Class Size for More Attention
Opt for studios that offer small class sizes to ensure more personal attention during your sessions. Smaller groups allow instructors to provide tailored feedback and support, leading to better results in your practice.
Do Choose Instructors with Strong Communication Skills
Select instructors who have excellent communication skills and are attentive to your needs. Effective communication enhances understanding of exercises, ensuring proper form and technique while creating a supportive environment for your growth.
Dont’s
Don't Ignore Hygiene and Cleanliness
Choosing a Pilates studio without verifying its cleanliness standards could lead to concerns about hygiene and safety. Ensure that the studio maintains high standards of cleanliness and provides adequate sanitizing materials to create a safe workout environment.
Don't Underestimate Communication Skills
Selecting a Pilates instructor without considering their communication skills may hinder your understanding of exercises and instructions. Opt for a provider who can clearly articulate movements and offers personalized feedback to enhance your learning experience.
Don't Overcommit to Large Class Sizes
Engaging in Pilates classes with too many participants can limit individual attention and affect the quality of your workout. Look for studios that maintain small class sizes to ensure a more personalized and effective experience.
Don't Rely on Inflexible Scheduling
Working with a Pilates instructor who has rigid scheduling policies may not accommodate your unforeseen circumstances. Choose a provider who offers flexibility in appointment rescheduling to ensure consistent attendance and continued progress.
