Meet Adella 💛

Hi, I’m Adella. I’m the founder of About Pilates Studio and a fully certified STOTT PILATES® Instructor.

My Pilates journey began as a client. What started as a workout quickly became something much more. Pilates transformed the way I moved, reduced pain, built confidence, and completely changed my relationship with my body. Today, it’s not just my profession. It’s a part of my everyday life.

At About Pilates Studio, I focus primarily on one-on-one private sessions because I believe healing, strength, and confidence grow best through personalized program. Every session is tailored to your body, not a class plan.

I specialize in, Pilates for Injuries & Special Populations, creating safe, and Prenatal & Postnatal Pilates, Athletic Conditioning - personalized programs that help every client move with confidence. I’m also certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED to provide an extra level of care and safety.

At About Pilates, my goal isn’t simply to teach exercises. I want every client to feel seen, supported, and empowered. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, preparing for motherhood, improving athletic performance, or simply looking to move without pain, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

When I’m not in the studio, you’ll usually find me hiking, biking, or enjoying the outdoors with my family and our dog. I also love sharing Pilates education and inspiration online so more people can experience the benefits of mindful movement.

Because I truly believe:
Pilates isn’t just exercise. It’s an investment in the way you live your life. 🤍
