About Search for Pilates

My name is Marcia Shapira (on the left) and I am the founder of Search for Pilates.
I am here to tell you why I have created Search for Pilates.
During the time that I have been teaching Pilates in Australia and regularly chatting to people about it, I've realised that there is very little awareness and a general misconception of what the Pilates method is all about.
As a studio owner I realised my biggest marketing challenge was trying to reach people who did not know how Pilates could provide a workout that would have an impact on the way they move and feel daily.
Men and women of all ages and walks of life can benefit from Pilates in a multitude of ways: Sports performance, injury prevention and rehabilitation, pain relief, improved posture and mobility...and the list goes on.
My desire to promote the amazing benefits that result from doing Pilates and to help people connect with the right Pilates instructor led me to develop the Search for Pilates concept.
In 2013, Josephine Holecek ( the lovely lady on the right) partnered with me in the business and together we are working to make Search for Pilates the online home for the largest Pilates teaching network in Australia. We are also working to make Pilates more accessible to everyone.
OUR VALUES
Education, community, professionalism, contribution and innovation.
Why use Search for Pilates to find an instructor?
