Kind of a Big Feelings Instructor
Welcome!
I’m Maria, certified pilates, barre, cycling, group fitness teacher and personal trainer that has been teaching for almost 15 years.
While I love all types of fitness, pilates and and barre class is what really fuels my soul as love to combine movement and music to create functional movement to help me outside and inside the studio.
I offer inclusive classes, private mat and reformer pilates sessions, and special events in West Bend, WI and the surrounding Washington County area.
I currently teach at Club Pilates Mequon and Club Pilates Whitefish Bay, and I also serve nearby communities like Cedarburg, Jackson, Hartford, Germantown, and Kewaskum.
I specialize in accessible, emotionally-attuned movement. Whether you’re joining me for a one-on-one Pilates session, a group mat class, or a pop-up event, every class I teach is rooted in presence, musicality, and kindness. We breathe, we feel, we move; and yes, I sometimes lose count, but I never lose the rhythm of what matters.
I love creating experienced tailored with options so every body feels seen and supported.
I’m also the founder of @themovementshop—a size-inclusive, Pilates-inspired store offering gifts and accessories that celebrate movement, joy, and self-regulation. It’s a little cheeky, a lot heart, and rooted in the same values I bring to class: presence, permission, and play.
If you’re looking for Pilates in Washington Co, WI or surrounding town and you want more than just a workout you’re in the right place.
We’ll move through it together.
