“I love this studio. It’s bright and airy. Clarissa is wonderful to work with. She helped me to avoid surgery for years, and once surgery became inevitable she has helped me regain function in my shoulder that I wasn’t getting from physiotherapy. She knows so much about the body. She pays attention to every detail and all the details make the difference. As a Pilates teacher myself, I feel so lucky to have Clarissa teaching me”

“The studio is great, super cozy with a welcoming atmosphere. I had the pleasure to have classes with a few of the instructors and all of them are incredibly knowledgeable, always taking into consideration my level of comfort during the exercises and constantly providing feedback on movements and how to make the most of the classes.”

”I have only been working with Clarissa since October 2022 and I have been amazed at the changes she has brought about in my flexibility and core strength!! As someone who finds excuses not to exercise, Clarissa keeps me motivated, not only by her skill and expertise, but also by the seemingly unlimited variety of approaches and activities. As an "older" woman, I really appreciate her knowledge, her persistence and her personality!! It's such an old cliché, but she is making a positive and welcome difference to my overall health!"

“I’ve been fortunate to work with Lindsay in the capacity of both Osteopathy and Pilates instructor. Her knowledge of how to incorporate both practices to help build strength, provide balance in the body and prevent injury is exceptional.
Her athletic background is so useful in providing guidance on how to meet any athletic goal!”

”I can’t say enough about the impact Pilates with Fernanda at the Studio Rio has had on my recovery and overall fitness. After a severe hamstring injury from skateboarding, I spent a year trying every treatment possible without full recovery. Starting Pilates here was a game-changer. My injured leg has gotten progressively stronger, and I feel more balanced and in control. The core exercises and body-awareness movement taught here have not only helped me return to skateboarding but have also taken my mobility and endurance to the next level. Highly recommend this studio for anyone serious about recovery and improving their physical performance!”

“Excellent Pilates studio! All the instructors whose classes I have attended so far have been phenomenal. Each instructor is very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend."

“Clarissa is an amazing movement instructor! She always knows what is happening in my body and always helps me feeling better after just one session. I have also become a lot stronger after being Clarissa's client for a year. I have so much love and respect for her as an instructor and as a person. Clarissa is the best and I recommend her to everyone!! This studio is beautiful, clean and cozy. I love the vibe here!"
