About
Sofia Toscano has made Body Control Pilates the leading brand in the UK. At her studio in Kingston upon Thames, Sofia offers classes for older adults, and prenatal and postnatal individuals, ensuring Pilates is accessible to everyone.
Sofia Toscano Pilates focuses on mindful movement to build strength, flexibility, and body awareness. Sofia, having dealt with lower back pain herself, chose Pilates as a non-surgical solution and is passionate about teaching its benefits.
Her studio provides both one-on-one sessions and group classes on the mat. Sofia’s teaching style is straightforward and functional, emphasising the connection between body and mind. In her sessions, clients enhance their body awareness, core stability, and flexibility through mindful movement.
Sofia prioritises creating a safe, inclusive environment. The studio is a non-competitive space encouraging clients to express their unique movement. She aims for the skills learned on the mat to become part of her clients' daily lives.
Sofia’s credentials as a certified Body Control Pilates teacher are well-respected. Body Control Pilates is recognised for its effective, medically approved method based on eight principles, including relaxation, concentration, and alignment. The method achieves core stability through progressively complex movements.
Both mat and machine-based exercises at Sofia Toscano Pilates suit all fitness levels. Specifically, matwork is beneficial for those with back problems, contributing to Body Control Pilates' status as the leading brand in the UK.
Dedicated to quality instruction, Sofia Toscano Pilates enhances physical wellness and overall well-being. Clients experience the transformative power of Pilates through mindful movement and a focus on body awareness, strength, and flexibility.
