Pilates Fit & More Studio
Get to know us!
Since 2015, Pilates Fit & More Studio, Inc. has been a sanctuary for mindful movement, strength, and balance in Cebu. What began as a vision among friends—dedicated Pilates practitioners since 1999—has grown into the city’s premier destination for authentic, equipment-based Pilates. By bringing world-class Pilates equipment to Cebu, we opened the doors for the community to experience the transformative benefits of the method.
At Pilates Fit Cebu, our Movement Specialists are not only teachers, but passionate guides committed to helping each client move with confidence and grace. Certified through Pilates on Fifth of Pilates Academy International (PAI) and members of the Pilates Method Alliance (PMA), our instructors uphold the highest international standards in Mat and Reformer Pilates.
Our expertise extends beyond the fundamentals. With advanced training in the Cadillac, Chair, and Barrel, as well as specialized certifications in Pre & Post Natal Pilates and Pilates for Scoliosis, we design programs tailored to every body’s unique needs. One of our instructors is further certified in Rehab Pilates, allowing us to provide safe and restorative pathways for those recovering from injury or seeking therapeutic movement.
At Pilates Fit, we believe Pilates is more than just exercise—it’s a lifestyle of mindful movement, balance, and vitality. Step into our studio and discover a place where your body is strengthened, your mind is centered, and your well-being is our highest priority.
