Join Us for Park Pilates: A Summer Movement & Mind-Body Experience! 🌞 Mark your calendars! Starting June 1st, join me once a month this summer for Park Pilates, a morning dedicated to movement, connection, and nourishing your well-being under the sun. This is your chance to enjoy a mindful Pilates practice, focused on strengthening your core and cultivating breath-to-movement awareness. Together, we’ll soak up the sun while grounding into a practice that supports your body, repairs your joints and muscles, and keeps you centered on your mat. Pilates is all about intentional movement that leaves you feeling nourished, energized, and joyful—what better way to celebrate the summer than with your community on a Sunday morning? After our Pilates session, stay and enjoy a delicious, nourishing acai bowl from Mi Dolcé Vida. Tania, the founder, will be serving fresh acai bowls topped with fruit, granola, and other healthy ingredients—perfect for refueling after a great workout.

Choosing to follow my passion for movement and wellness was one of the most empowering decisions I've made, and Pilates holds a special place in my heart. Over the years, this practice has transformed my mind and body, teaching me the true power of self-care, embodiment, and connection. As a certified Pilates instructor, Reiki Master, Yoga, and somatic facilitator, I blend my love for movement with deep mindfulness to guide others toward holistic well-being. Let’s take this journey together—on the mat, in the community, and in life! 💕 After our Pilates session, treat yourself to a refreshing acai bowl, lovingly prepared by Tania, the incredible Latina woman and mother behind Mi Dolcé Vida.

Part of her mission is to support mothers, children, and those in need, donating a portion of her proceeds to local causes. So, join us for movement, connection, and then enjoy a nourishing acai bowl while supporting a beautiful community-focused business. 💖 Come for Pilates, stay for the bowl of love! FAQ: 1.
