Pilates With Anne

The combined neuroplasticity of our brains and adaptability of our bodies allows us to learn new possibilities of movement no matter what our age or past movement history. The trick is that it just requires the right instruction. At Pilates with Anne we are committed to giving you the best teaching possible to meet your health and wellness goals.

Did you know Pilates with Anne was the first Pilates studio in Petaluma? We opened our doors in 2002 and we haven't looked back. Over the years we have organically expanded and grown while always striving for top quality teachers, equipment and continuing education and instruction. We have taught well over 10,000 hours.

Anne Bishop teaches the connection between the body and the brain through Pilates. She taught anatomy at San Francisco State University and teaches Pilates, Pilates certification, anatomy, biomechanics and posture nationally and internationally. Her teaching is rooted in enhancing student's body awareness.

A private session is taught one-on-one with the teacher and student. Our experienced instructors create a fitness program based on a postural analysis and your fitness needs. The private session allows you to have the full attention of one instructor to meet your personalized goals.
