Big Bear Pilates

I consider myself a pretty serious student of Pilates. I have my own Reformer, Cadillac and Ladder Barrel. I have probably taken at least 300 private or semi-​private classes. I have been to many studios and have worked with many teachers. I love Big Bear Pilates and Siri D. First of all Big Bear Pilates is the best studio I have ever worked in. Bright, open, and with a terrific selection of top quality equipment.
Siri D deserves credit for having the cleanest studio I have ever seen.. I love it!
Siri is a terrific teacher. She is very knowledgeable about Pilates. Something that I find very unique about her is that she has an instinct for how hard to push you in a workout. My biggest objection to other teachers has been that their workouts were either too easy or too hard. Siri pays attention, and pushes you as hard as you need to go at that moment, as opposed to running you through a generic series of exercises.
A great Pilates Studio!

I have only been to about 8 pilates classes but I am addicted. I have a regular place in San Diego but since we have a home in Big Bear I wanted to find a true traditionally trained reformer pilates teacher here. Siri Galliano is amazing. She takes her time in ensuring good form, correct exercises for goals and adapts to needs of participants. She is amazing and an asset to Big Bear. I have added her to my contact on my iphone and plan to schedule sessions with her every time we come up.
Downsides: Her studio is small so it would be hard to bring guests but I expect that to change and her equipment is good but not top of line. She is definitely a truist so expect that.
All the rest if upside and if you like Pilates, you will truly enjoy your time with Siri.
