Student Recommendations

• Martha A. March 23, 2011

  "Celia is the best Pilates instructor in South Florida! She is a devotee of the classical style. In the three years I have been her student, I have grown tremendously in my practice. She is very patient and encouraging."

• Loui F. March 31, 2011

  "Celia is not just classically trained but she is a certified physical therapist. After having had years of work related pain, her training, guidance and knowledge has transformed my physical wellbeing. She is the best and I highly recommend her. You will get more in one private session than ten group sessions. "

• Loui F. March 31, 2011

  "I just wrote a review for Celia and made an error. I incorrectly noted that Celia is a physical therapist. She is a Certified Trager Practitioner. Please exuse my error!"

• Yvonne S. March 31, 2011

  "I highly recommend Celia Maluf as a Pilates instructor. She is an effective, dedicated professional who has extensive knowledge of Classical Pilates and many years of training experience. During the last 3+ years that I have been enrolled in her classes, I have gained flexibility, a better posture, strenghtened my core muscles and overall improved my physical condition. Celia has taught us that once you learn Pilates "you live Pilates" and for that reason I know that I will need her to be my instructor for many years to come. Thanks Celia for helping me feel younger every day!!"

  "I've been taking Pilates with Celia at Deering for around 3 years. She is an excellent instructor and very mindful of making sure that you do everything properly so that you don't hurt yourself. The class has taught me tons about how to carry my body and really helped me train for my ever first 1/2 ING half marathon this year."

  "Celia Maluf is an excellent Pilates instructor and Traeger practitioner. She knows every inch of the human body. Celia is a perfectionist; through POSITIVE encouragement she brings out the best performance from her students. She is committed to her work and her students. She is kind, energetic and enthusiastic. Celia is TOPS!!"

• Diane P. April 1, 2011

  "Attention to detail and knowledge of human physiology add to Celia's Pilates group classes making them some of the best I've taken (including universities and other large metropolitan areas). Her depth of experience is not often found in Miami, so we are lucky to have her in our community. She also is very encouraging and this is an instructor quality that is essential for a student in class after a long day at work!"

• Gina M. April 3, 2011

  "Celia's passion and love for Pilates shows through her instruction. She pays close attention to detail which is very hard to find. She is also very encouraging and great to work with. She is definitely the best instructor I have ever worked with and I highly recommend her!!! "

  "Celia has got to be one of Joseph Pilates's little angels!! She is such an amazing Pilates instructor and so passionate about teaching the way it was intended to be taught! She is very detail oriented and a perfectionist...so if you want to get optimal results and see dramatic improvements in your posture, strength, and mobility...take Pulates with Celia!! She is definitely cream of the crop and very dedicated to helping people get the body they always wanted! That's not all though...to add the icing to the cake, Celia also has magic hands and a golden heart, which adds to her healing potential! She is very intuitive and loving and helps take pain away while at the same time relaxing the muscles, through the Trager approach! What a gift to know Celia and be her Pilates client and Trafer client! I can't say enough wonderful things about Celia! See for yourself!! Michele"

  "To work with Celia Maluf is to change your life! I have been a devoted student of Celia's for four years, and I live an active, normal life again because of her dedication to helping me overcome my physical problems! She combines her classically trained pilates skills with her knowledge of the body as a massage therapist to create a personalized total body workout that is outstanding! Celia is a kind, generous, extremely bright woman with a heart and hands of gold! What a gift to have her in my life! Linda C."

• Regina D. April 12, 2011

  "Celia is a great Pilates instructor, she's energetic, full of enthusiasm and a highly qualified professional. She has a profound knowledge of human body and one very important thing is that she loves what she does."

• Inger D. April 12, 2011

  "I began Pilates at Deering Estate approx one year ago and love it. I was diagnosed with "osteopenia" and just running/jogging is not enough, I had read that Pilates is excellent for combating "osteopenia". Celia Maluf is an excellent teacher and an inspiration, at first I was very discouraged, I had no muscle control in my neck, I can now do the "100" without a problem, that is progress! Also I would like to mention a knee problem that took me to a physical therapist and it did not help but my pilates took care of that! "

• maria D. April 18, 2011

  "I have been taking Pilates with Celia Maluf for over a year. She is an excellent teacher and as a student I always feel that she is watching and interested in everything I am doing to make sure I am doing things correctly. She is inspiring, energetic, and I can tell she loves what she does. I personally have experienced great improvement with my neck and back problems."
