Maria is fantastic and really cares about helping you improve, regardless of where you’re starting from. I have known Danny and Maria for many years and they are genuinely wonderful people. I think anyone could really benefit from taking classes at this studio. It’s a family run business that will help you get great results. Also, how cool is the Begin Chair that Maria invented? I can’t wait to own one! PS. Did you see them on the news? They have a lot of class offerings for ALL ages!

I have been working with Maria to start with the basics for developing and using core muscles. This is my first time trying pilates, and Maria has made it enjoyable and effective. She is mindful of my individual limitations and can clearly instruct/explain movements and the body’s mechanics. It’s a relaxed, friendly, and professional environment.

Great spot for the Sabin/Irvington neighborhood! They have a bunch of different classes at various times to accommodate anyone. I love Danny’s Tuesday and Thursday night yin yoga class at 6:30. It’s perfect for after work to stretch and relax :)

We are very fortunate indeed to have Begin Pilates and Maria here in West Marin! Maria is delightful and so knowledgeable. I feel very safe with her because she has deep experience, and a perspective which allows her to monitor everyone in the class and to adjust the exercises for each of us according to our individual needs. Plus, it is fun, and the hour flies by. I am so much stronger now, have better balance, and am able to do things easily that were struggles in the past year. Highly recommended!

Maria’s Pilates has been the turning point for me in my healing process. I have severe scoliosis, fractures in spine and I can honestly say that Maria’s process and teaching methods have made a complete turnaround for me. She is unique in her process especially because of her amazing and unusual ability to understand the whole body and how it works. During the whole time I am working with her, she is ever watchful for any deviation that might not be the right way to work through the exercises. In all the different paths that I have taken both through my HMO and other physical therapy sessions, I can honestly say that I have never had such a successful experience and progress towards health. We are very lucky to have her in our community with her unique intelligence, expertise and compassionate attitude.
