Pilates Privé — Local services in Paris

I discovered Pilates Privé Paris in October 2018, on a month-long home exchange in Paris. I've been practicing Pilates weekly since 2005, and did not want to miss my Pilates workouts during our time in Paris. So I Googled “Pilates Paris”. I can't remember why I chose Pilates Privé, but I am sure glad I did!

I had four or five workouts during our time in Paris, and after the first one, I knew I had found someone special. Erin’s knowledge of the body, how it works and especially her skill in communicating that to me was exceptional.

My wife and I love Paris, and now I had one more reason to return. I was looking forward to more workouts with Erin while we were in Paris on another home exchange, but Covid changed all that.

But the good news is: when Erin had to close down her studio because of Covid, she sent an email about doing Pilates workouts via Zoom. I got that email, here in California. That was in April 2020. I signed up for her group workouts, which were at 3:00am California time. My wife thought I was crazy. I am now doing two private workouts every week and doing her group workout on Sundays at 2:00 am. That is how special she is, that I get up every Sunday morning at 1:30am to do her 2:00am Pilates group workout.

PS I can’t wait to get back to Paris and have some in person...

Erin's studio is beautiful, calming, and in an excellent location. Her team of instructors all bring something different to the table, but maintain a high level of quality ; the variety is refreshing. I honestly wasn't that concerned about aesthetics in terms of my own fitness goals. I was more interested in posture and core strength, plus the meditative quality of being so focused for an hour than I could not worry about anything else. Pilates Privé definitely delivers on those fronts, and I am certainly not complaining about the disappearance of my bingo wings in a matter of weeks to boot! ...

My husband and I were so fortunate to have found this Pilates studio during our stay in Paris. We had Erin and Sarah as our instructors and both are excellent. Clara, the adorable "instructor in training" (Erin's sweet pup), also made us feel right at home during our instruction. At Pilates Privé, you can count on getting the best guidance from instructors who are highly skilled, fun and encouraging. I learned a lot from our time with Erin and Sarah that will carry over into my home Pilates practice. Kudos to...
