Exhale.

Explore It. Expand It. Experience It.

Alajuela, Costa Rica
W/ pura vida retreat & Spa

August 10th - 15th 2025

Join Pilates People for a 6 day long journey - slowly allowing the business of every day life to slip away so we can explore, expand, experience and enjoy a new space together. 

Through our daily movement practice, we'll use our time abroad to open our eyes to new things - allowing the change of scenery and routine to inform our readiness to adventure and surprise ourselves.

Meet Cassandra

Pilates People started as a love note - a way for me to reach out to the world and keep us together while apart. Now, I am so excited to bring us all out into the world, together!
Movement is my true love, and I'm here to share that with you. I believe (and know) that our bodies don't lie. They are the keepers of our stories and it is our job to listen and learn from what they have to say.
Why Pilates for that? It's the only modality I've found that can simultaneously address an injury, look at a person holistically and make you feel the burn all at the same time whether you're at home, in the studio or on the go!
On a personal level, Pilates is the thing that has saved my spine, shoulder and spirit on more than one occasion, so I know it works.
I'm an ex dancer who's fully certified with continuing education specifically for athletes, male-identifying and pre/postnatal bodies, but I'm so happy to work with ALL the bodies and eager to learn from what you and your body have to tell me! 
And I simply cannot wait to share this next adventure with you!
