EricoPilates

Erico is just THE BEST! Classes are so much fun, it hardly feels like I’m working. He’s fantastic at pacing the exercises to challenge without ever making you feel overwhelmed. And, he gets results! Within a couple of months of working with Erico, friends were telling me my body shape had changed, while I felt noticeably stronger and more flexible. And I know half of Chelsea feels the same way. Erico, thank you so much!! Looking forward to our next class Tuesday 💪😊

There should be more than five stars available for people like Erico. There are so many "Pilates" instructors and classes in NYC, but Erico is unique in very many ways. He is, of course, licensed by the Pilates Institute. Yes, he has the machines (and a myriad of other fitness/stretching toys). A former dancer, he is thoroughly knowledgable about every muscle, tendon, and sinew of the human body. But more important, he knows how to work with YOUR body. He will use his knowledge to develop an exercise routine for your body--not a million other bodies that may come his way. He will work with your strengths and improve your weaknesses using his knowledge to do so. His training is highly individual. As if that's not enough, he is a compassionate, caring person (although NOT in the usual obnoxious way), an animal lover, and so much more. He's pretty special. If you are considering Pilates, you will not find a better practitioner of it here,, in his charming, art-filled Chelsea studio. Go!

In NYC, pilates studios are ubiquitos. They seem to be on every block. However, if are you are looking for the best Pilates teacher - you have found him. For the past twenty years I have taken private, one-on-one Pilates sessions at a bunch of different studios in the city. Some were just close to my apt. Some were because of a recommendation from a friend. The one common thread was that they were ALL are very rigid and just plain boring. Erico's studio is great. This guy knows his stuff with a professional dance background. The sessions are actually fun. How novel! I highly recommended him for beginners and advanced students alike. Great studio. Great guy.

I have been taking pilates @ericopilates studio for several years. Erico is a master teacher. His ballet professional background makes him extremely knowledgeable and brings the experience to a higher level. This is not just any pilates session. Besides, the studio is beautiful. A true Gem in Chelsea.

I have been going to Erico for over two years, and he is a phenomenal instructor. He takes the time to work with your schedule and is very dedicated to seeing his clients succeed in their fitness goals!
