I’m happy to announce we have a new teacher at Pho I’m happy to announce we have a new teacher at Phoenix… Meet Marea Bianchini!

Marea and I used to teach together at Winsor Pilates! Her sessions are focused on strength, control, and intelligent movement. With over 25 years of experience in classical Pilates, she brings a deep understanding of the body and a thoughtful, individualized approach to each client. Marea studied with Romana Kryzanowska, Joseph Pilates’ primary protégé, and has also taught alongside Mari Winsor in Los Angeles.

A former ballet dancer, she combines precision, athleticism, and careful attention to alignment to help clients move with greater strength, stability, and confidence. Her work supports a wide range of bodies—from athletes and active adults to those seeking long-term strength and resilience.

Marea is available Monday through Thursday afternoon/evenings. Book at phoenixclassicalpilates.com/appointments/

If some workouts feel amazing and others feel impossible… that’s not laziness. It’s your internal clock.

Your circadian rhythm affects your sleep, energy, and performance. Some people thrive in morning classes. Others feel strongest later in the day.

The goal isn’t “earlier is better.” It’s finding your rhythm.

👇 Are you more of a morning or evening mover?
Lucky for you, we offer classes, privates and semi-privates at Phoenix in the mornings, afternoons and evenings to work with your schedule and circadian rhythms.
