Welcome to GLOW — Gina's Lifestyle Of Wellness — my private Pilates studio in Ridgewood, NJ. Big group classes are everywhere right now, and they have their place. But a group of 10 to 15 — sometimes even 20 — all doing the same movement can't see what your body actually needs. One-on-one, I can.
Every session is built around you — your alignment, your pelvic floor, your breath, and the way you actually walk and carry weight through the day. When it's just the two of us, I can read your form in real time, correct it in the moment, and adjust for the body in front of me, so every movement works for you instead of against you. My work is rooted in Pilates — alignment, control, and precision — and built outward to include Callanetics, strength training, and functional movement. Sessions are available in studio or virtually via Zoom or FaceTime, and mindfulness and dietary and lifestyle coaching are included in every program at no extra cost.
Available in-person and via Zoom or FaceTime, in 60-, 45-, or 30-minute formats. Every fitness session incorporates essential dietary guidance. Feel free to connect for a complimentary 30-minute demo.
Slow is also a pace.

After decades of teaching movement, I've learned to read a body the way most people read a page — where it's holding, where it's compensating, and what it's ready for. I watch how you move, then meet you there: lengthening what's tight, waking up what's asleep, and building strength on a foundation that's actually aligned. No two sessions look the same, because no two bodies — or days — are the same.
I teach private and semi-private sessions in studio and virtually via Zoom. Over the years I've distilled a lifetime of movement into three signature programs — each one meeting the body at a different place:
Classical and contemporary Pilates across the full apparatus and mat: Reformer, Cadillac Tower, Ladder and Arc Barrels, the Stability Chair, and floor work. Decades of teaching distilled into alignment, control, and precision, tuned to your body.
Everything in GLOW Body Pilates, expanded. Equipment and mat woven together with Ballet Barre, Callanetics, and Yamuna Body Rolling for strength, alignment, and whole-body integration.
A strength-driven evolution of Pilates that builds lean muscle and bone density for the long arc, so you stay strong, capable, and independent as the decades add up. Explore the program →
Mindfulness, dietary, and lifestyle coaching are woven into every program at no additional cost.
You never have to know which one you need — I read the body in front of me, and in the end, we all get there strong.
