Month #1 of 2016 is in the books. Where do you stand on those many resolutions you set at the beginning of this new year? Come February, I always have to remind myself to reevaluate how successful I’ve been at accomplishing the goals I set for myself for the new year. Maybe your resolution was […]
It’s common to get super busy with work and family life. And for most of us, one of the first things to cut out of a jam packed schedule is working out. When I’m pinched for time but unwilling to abandon my workout, I walk the Coit Tower Steps or Greenwich Steps.* Here are my […]
Hey, how do you like my blackeye? You should see the other guy! Just kidding. I actually crashed my bike hitting a patch of gravel halfway through a ride in Marin. All and all, I was lucky. Now I’m very sore and have this shiner as a badge of honor. Pilates teachers hurt themselves from […]

The newest addition to our team, we love the unique energy and expertise that Magda brings […]
