Welcome to Pilates of Pasadena (P/oP)
Established in 2015 and Voted “Pasadena’s #1” Pilates studio since opening our doors.
P/oP remains one of the few traditional Pilates studios in the area whose focus is on the original teachings of Joseph Pilates. Our goals are longevity, functionality and overall wellness for our clients. Whether you are an athlete, someone looking to cross train, or a baby boomer seeking to stay healthy, Pilates can help you achieve your objectives.
We offer all the Pilates apparatus: the reformer, cadillac/table, wunda chair, barrels, spine correctors - each designed to work the core and muscle groups uniquely.
Our instructors have all completed a Pilates comprehensive course from the leading educational institutions - BASI, Stott, Polestar and Balanced Body. Learn more about P/oP and our instructors’ stories here.
As a result of our years of experience, and continuing education, our instructors are familiar with, and can work, with a variety of underlying conditions like osteoporosis, scoliosis, pre- and post- op joint replacement, post physical therapy, back issues, and more.
The best thing about our environment is we truly are a family at P/oP. Our clients and instructors have collectively and organically formed a warm and diverse community.
“Over the years I’ve seen so many friendships formed at P/oP, which always warms my heart, ” said Maria Jimenez-Tierney, founder of Pilates of Pasadena.

While keeping with traditional teaching, Pilates of Pasadena utilizes contemporary accessories when needed: balls, bands, and weights, to list just a few.
Oov: The Oov is a specialized foam device created by Daniel Vladeta to mimic the spine’s natural movement while promoting spinal health and stability. It facilitates core activation, spinal lengthening and improved balance.
P/oP has hosted Oov training in the past, and is the only studio in Pasadena with instructors who are trained in the Oov method. It’s not unusual to have an hour class in Pilates while simultaneously using the Oov.
We do not blast music in dark rooms.
We offer personalized attention to clients, whether in a private session or in a group class.
Additionally, Physical Therapy sessions as well as Sports Massage Therapy, are available.
SOUND BATH
Our latest offering is a relaxing monthly Sound Bath by Lara. Offered every third Saturday of the month 6:00pm. Bring a blanket and prepare to relax and allow the stress of life to melt away with the meditative sounds of singing crystal bowls.
