Sonia trained with the Pilates Institute and at The Pilates Room and is constantly studying to extend her styles of teaching, regularly varying her classes although always maintaining the Pilates focus on core structure. Her vibrant and outgoing personality and her professional teaching style make her classes dynamic, supportive and motivational.
