Welcome.

“The Pilates Method of Body Conditioning is complete coordination of body, mind and spirit.” ~ Joseph Pilates

Hi, I’m Deb… otherwise known as Deborah Boyd. I offer private and semi-private Classical Pilates lessons using the reformer, tower, wunda chair, spine corrector and mat in my bright home studio located in historic Steveston Village, Richmond, BC. I also teach an in-person group mat class on Saturday mornings at the Steveston HUB and a virtual mat class held via Zoom on Monday at 5:30pm. Please visit my offerings for more details.

I became a certified Pilates instructor because I was profoundly affected by my own experience with Pilates. Having trained in the Classical method of Joseph Pilates (under the guidance of the esteemed Emmie Li), I am a passionate believer in the power and effectiveness of the system. I truly believe everyone needs Pilates and anyone at any age will benefit from it. If you’re looking to improve your posture, strengthen your core, correct muscle imbalances, rehabilitate after an injury or improve your overall fitness – Classical Pilates could be the key for you to meet your personal goals.

A balanced and integrated body is necessary for movement mastery. If you live with aches, pains, injuries or are just feeling tight, that's a sign that you are out of alignment somewhere in your body or in the way you move. Pilates trains your body as an integrated whole and corrects these imbalances with the result being that you feel strong, mobile and energized. 

No matter what is important to you, Pilates will help you do it better, with more energy and ease. Whether it’s just feeling better in your body on a daily basis, playing better golf or tennis or even running faster, I can help you achieve your goals.

I really do believe Classical Pilates can help you live your best life.
