Weekend session: 2 group equipment lessons (max 3 people) + 1 free Mat lesson. Designed for those staying in Florence for just a weekend but still want to focus on their physical wellbeing by dedicating 1 hour a day to Pilates. Valid for 2 days from the date of subscription.
The Pilates Atelier in the heart of Florence
The Atelier, located on Lungarno Vespucci, welcomes clients to a unique and striking location, with pink-hued rooms overlooking the beautiful Arno River that coddles Florence. It consists of two large rooms: the first features three innovative BODY & EXERCISE PILATES machines for small-group SCULPT Pilates classes, with a training method developed by Cristiana Desantis. This is the first center in Tuscany to offer this type of training.
The second room features three COMBO machines, which can be modulated into either REFORMERS or CADILLACS depending on the teacher’s preference, in order to maximize variation by rendering the lessons more involving. All machines are BASI Systems.
Large changing rooms, showers, and bathrooms are available to all guests to ensure maximum comfort during their stay.
