Specialization and Experience:
Gabriella began her fitness career in 2009 working as a certified personal trainer in various gyms throughout New York. She suffered a knee injury due to a muscle imbalance/weakness and over use of her leg muscles. She completed her physical therapy sessions but was still looking for a better healing result. Gabriella was encouraged by a fellow trainer to try a Pilates mat class. She immediately fell in love with the practice and was so inspired that she decided to pursue her own instructor training.
Gabriella received her Pilates certification in 2011 at True Pilates Studio in New York. She has been teaching private clients and group classes ever since. Pilates has become Gabriella’s lifelong vocation and she moved to Naples in 2021 to share it with us!
