I'm so glad I found Pilates Santé! I started with a physical therapy evaluation, then progressed to one-on-one Pilates sessions before joining their small group classes (limited to just four people). The staff is warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. Every instructor I've worked with has been knowledgeable, attentive, and skilled at providing specific, actionable feedback in a supportive and encouraging way. In just four months, my back feels years younger. I highly recommend Pilates Santé to anyone looking for expert instruction in a caring, personalized environment. read more

Sadly, my body is showing signs of wear and tear and I am fighting it tooth and nail which brought me here. A good friend highly recommended Therese who is a PT here. I had my first session today and she was great. She is clearly a master of her craft and helped me come up with a program to address my pain. I have been to a lot of PTs in the past and tried a lot of different programs and I am very impressed and hopeful that this will resolve my issue permanently. read more

See all

I've had such a great experience at Pilates Sante. Everyone there is super kind, welcoming, and supportive. I've learned a lot about body awareness and how to move properly, and I'm also working on improving my posture while building strength in a way that feels safe and effective. The studio is always clean, comfortable, and has a really calm, inviting vibe. It's been an awesome place to get stronger and learn more about how my body moves, and I can honestly say that I enjoy my time there! It's the first physical therapy I've gotten that I actually look forward to. I highly recommend Pilates Sante! read more

This is an absolutely wonderful place for the type of strength and training I needed. I was referred by my existing PT for continuing care of multiple issues after we discovered that I was able to make a lot of progress using the pilates reformer. I've previously done various forms of yoga and had always been a little curious about pilates. From my very first appointment it was clear this place is staffed by caring knowledgeable people who are dedicated to meeting you where you are at in order to hit your movement goals. I was very nervous that I'd suddenly find myself in a class lost and pushing my way through, the opposite is true. I've had sessions with their PT and have moved gradually into private lessons. Each step along the way I am gently guided to what I need to do. I've really enjoyed getting to meet all the skilled instructors and staff and I'm really looking forward to my next lesson. read more

I have been a client of Pilates Sante for nearly 3 years. When I started PT and Pilates at the studio, I was in very bad shape. I had seven different injuries throughout my body and was having difficulty walking. Their thoughtful care plus my consistent attendance at class has helped me build the strength and body awareness I need to lead my daily life without pain. I am now even able to push my body further to hike, bike, snowshoe, and river raft. I am so thankful and pleased. The warm and welcoming atmosphere in the studio has led me to view Pilates Sante as my healing place. Thank you, Ariel, and all the excellent instructors I've seen over the years! read more

Transformative Care and True Healing at Pilates Sante It's been four months since I began my physical therapy journey at Pilates Sante, and I can honestly say it has been a life-changing experience. I've been dealing with severe lower back pain and L5-S1 malformations for years, and have tried countless traditional PT approaches -- but they always felt like a chore. I'd dread going, rarely followed the home programs, and never felt truly seen. That all changed when I found Pilates Sante. From my very first interaction with Christina, the warm and attentive office manager, I felt welcomed and genuinely cared for. Working with Ariel and Therese over the past few months has been nothing short of incredible. They are deeply knowledgeable, compassionate, and fully invested in their clients' progress. This is the first time I've ever consistently followed a home program, and actually looked forward to my weekly appointments. Ariel's approach is both gentle and empowering -- she listens, adjusts, encourages, and never loses sight of the long-term goal. Even though my healing journey is slow, the progress is real: * My posture is improving * My abs are getting stronger * And best of all, my pain levels have decreased significantly I'm truly grateful to Ariel and her amazing team for creating a space where people like me feel supported, hopeful, and seen. This isn't just physical therapy -- it's a place of healing, growth, and genuine care. Thank you, Pilates Sante, for changing how I feel in my body -- and about my body. read more

I started here after hearing many rave reviews and struggling with ongoing running injuries. After my consultation, I did a few private classes but was suggested to switch the group class format. I am so glad I did- not only is it more affordable but I feel I still get an equivalent amount of individualized instruction. I have been in the Sunday group class with Isabel, who is incredible. Highly recommend! read more

Love Isabel and Christina!! They are so accommodating and were very open to availability based on my schedule which was huge, especially with that Bay Area traffic. You can tell they really care about preventing injury, reducing chronic pain, and setting you up right so that you have the right tools to strengthen your core. Thank you and I intend to continue my sessions here!! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about this pilates studio, so much so that I hesitate to write this glowing review. The instructors are each thoughtful and precise in their own way. The PT expertise is a huge plus (I came to Pilates Sante following a pretty debilitating injury and have regained full mobility). It's a double edged sword that it's such a small studio, the upside being that the level of attention is superb. Highly recommend (but don't tell too many people). read more

Highly recommend Pilate Santes! My instructor, Isabel, was incredibly skilled, attentive, and genuinely caring. I have some weaker areas, and she modified the exercises so I wouldn't over-strain my body. She checked in with me throughout the session and made me feel supported the entire time. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and wants them to succeed. Definitely coming back! read more

I had such a great experience at Pilates Santé this morning! Our instructor, Isabel, was absolutely amazing. Incredibly attentive, clear, and detailed with her cues. I walked out of class understanding my form so much better. The energy in the studio is immaculate. I really appreciate how intimate the space is; it makes the class feel personal, supportive, and intentional. You can tell the instructors truly care about proper form, safety, and alignment. I also love that they have private rooms for one-on-one sessions if you want even more individualized attention. Overall, such a welcoming and professional studio. I'm already excited to come back! read more

What a wonderful combination of Pilates and Physical Therapy. All the therapists and instructors are excellent: professional and attentive. I'm recovering from a total knee replacement, and everyone who has worked with me knows exactly what and how to guide me through every routine. Not to mention how clean and efficient, and friendly the studio is. Whenever I walk in I'm greeted by name, as if I'm a long lost and much missed member of the family. It's a wonderful healing environment. read more

I'm so impressed by the quality of the staff at Pilates Sante. I needed physical therapy for my pelvic floor/sacroiliac and I came here. I got excellent physical therapy--near life changing. And then graduated to private Pilates sessions and finally group lessons. This is a great group and I highly recommend it. And note: I've tried Pilates before at other places and then just constantly got injured. Here I'm constantly getting stronger:) read more

I love Pilates Sante for my physical therapy. Each practitioner has given me unique support to help in my healing. Therese is so detailed and specific that we find exercises that target exactly my issue. Christine is so fun and helps work me in all the activities I've learned from the PTs. Ariel has pushed my strength to new levels. This was just the support I need to push my healing forward. Not to mention Christina and the others at the front desk are very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend. read more

Amazing session with Therese! She was professional, diligent and very precise with her guidance to get me to my goals. Thank you!

It's so great to attend a small class with a highly skilled highly attuned instructor. I feel safe and encouraged and my needs are always heard. read more

I have been going to Pilates Sante for about a year. I saw Ariel and Mia for a few private PT sessions. They both have been so helpful and my condition has improved so much under their care. I feel great after each session. I do the exercises daily at home. I have learned so much about what my body needs. I have been doing the group classes for about 6 months and I really like the workout. I highly recommend Pilates Sante. read more

I honestly don't know how to properly convey how blessed I am to have found Pilates Sante. Working with Ariel has been life changing. Literally. I had been to many different PTs and therapies over the years and it is INSANE how much progress I have made in such a short time. Ariel is so well versed in the body and is so thorough in her assessments and during our sessions. Not only am I healing and getting stronger and more stabilized, but I have developed a better mind/body connection, better posture, better form, and a better understanding of how my body should be working to prevent another injury. Outside of all this expertise that she and her PT have (all of these ladies are super smart and amazing), her office staff and instructors have blown my mind. They are kind, professional, extremely knowledgeable, watchful (they pay close attention during sessions and adjust your form as needed), just seriously a wonderful group. Take the trust leap and come here, I guarantee you will not regret it. read more

Ariel is talented, perceptive and a gifted physical therapist using Pilates in her treatment. She set me on a path of recovery that I continue today in private sessions with Catherine. My experiences at Pilates Sante have been professional and effective---and fun! read more

I've gone to Pilates Santé for over 10 years. I started with PT due to back problems and moved to the Pilates group classes. I've received so much benefit from Pilates that I've convinced other family members to go as well. Pilates Sante instructors have been excellent. They add variety, are able to tell you what changes to make to have an exercise be more (or less) challenging. They watch your form to prevent injuries. Scheduling and payments are easy and the office staff is friendly and efficient. Overall I've had an outstanding experience with everyone here and that's why I keep going back. read more

I am doing a combination of Physical Therapy and Pilates for my back. The instructors analyze your issues and come up with a program to do in the studio and at home. They really show a personal interest in each client. I have been very satisfied with the quality of my care. The office is efficiently run. The environment is welcoming and clean. I would highly recommend Pilates Sante. read more

Amazing! I went to Pilates Effect down the street and almost gave up on Pilates. They pretended to be very nice and welcoming, but after a few sessions I was in pain and I was blamed for the problem Pilates Sante helped me tremendously!!! They were nice on day 1 and very welcoming. Even better they kept being nice and helpful. I am now pain free and stronger then ever. read more

I've been at the Studio for over 4 years, and I couldn't be happier! The attitude is professional, supportive, personalized, Attentive, and friendly. The entire facility is spotlessly clean, and the instructors are highly credentialed.if you have an "issue" or injury, there are physical therapists there also. It's a wonderful place to be! Suzi read more

Excellent instructors with in-depth knowledge of the body. I think this is the best Pilates studio I have ever joined. Alma B read more

After seeing a PT for almost a year, my back pain and numbness in my right leg (from ballroom dance injury) was still persistent. Within a month, Ariel and her team was able to improve my symptoms. I have a lot less pain, more mobility, and I was able to compete in dance floor last week for the first time without any discomfort. Ariel's insight into human body is amazing. She also have a keen eye from former dancer's perspective. Traci's trio reformer class is a huge bonus. I have been taking her class twice a week and I am feeling stronger each day. The core work is a must to improve spine health. I am so glad that I went back to this studio. Highly recommend her team! read more

Rehabilitating myself at Pilates Sante was life changing for my health! After 2 spine surgeries and Kaiser providing zero rehabilitation, I was forced to find somewhere on my own. Pilates Sante far exceeded my expectations. Gabby and Marcia are extremely knowledgeable and adjusted my sessions to completely meet the needs of my body. I can now say I'm stronger and healthier than ever and it's largely due to the expert help I received at Pilates Sante. I highly recommend Pilates Sante, especially if you're needing rehabilitation post surgery or due to injury. read more

My husband and I have been clients at Pilates Sante for many years and have had sessions with physical therapists to rehab from various surgeries. We have benefited from each instructor we have had. Traci has been our pilates instructor for the past 4 months and we have continued to be impressed with her knowledge. She always knows how do adjust a workout and address what our limitations might be for a particular session. She has a gentle and calming manner of instruction and shares a wealth of knowledge. We look forward to her class every week. read more

I've been a regular client at Pilates Santé for at least four years. My chiropractor recommended Ariel because of low-grade chronic pain due to a back injury. After her evaluation, I started rehabilitative pilates with instructors and I rarely experience pain. My core is so much stronger than it's ever been - I even learned to surf a few months ago. We work on balance, strength, mobility, and more. I had an ankle injury two years ago and we not only rehabbed it, but we modified my pilates routine to be sure I didn't lose strength and mobility. I've seen most of the instructors there and done online courses and would highly recommend Ariel and the team. In addition to their professional skill, they're also nice and fun people! read more

Everyone at Pilates Sante has been such a delight to work with. I feel like I'm getting the guidance, support, and expertise that I've needed to heal and rehabilitate my body after a bad ski accident. Everyone is patient, kind, and knowledgeable, and I feel like I'm in good hands. Not only that, I'm seeing results and feeling stronger after only 1 month. Thank you, Thank you PS team! read more

Pilates Sante Physical Therapy has been my saving grace after a traumatizing neck/head injury. I came in scared, emotional, and in pain. As a parent of three kids, one with a disability that requires physical assistance, I was utterly devastated. Ariel and the other excellent PTs helped me put myself back together, taught me the importance of my home exercises (I was stubborn about this one), and provided me a safe place to process. I can't say enough good things about this studio. The one-on-one care has been pivotal in my healing as a person with hypermobility (hEDS) recovering from a debilitating injury. I am so incredibly grateful to the Pilates Sante team. read more

Ariel and her team are AMAZING, especially for prenatal and postpartum care! They helped me bring my diastasis back together from my first two births, while being pregnant with my third. I felt like my core muscles got "iron man" training leading up to my third birth. I felt the strongest of my three pregnancies and had my easiest and smoothest delivery yet (at home)!  Now just as I've re-started my normal intensive dance classes, they have been cancelled due to the "shelter in home" mandate for COVID-19 so... I just had an awesome virtual Pilates session with Ariel by Zoom video and it totally kicked my butt (in the best of ways)! If you want to stay in shape and maintain core strength (even while at home), I highly recommend Pilates Sante! read more

Pilates Sante ... it just FEELS good, feels right. i've worked with Ariel for physical therapy, and Renata for Pilates. They consult with one another to make sure that I'm getting the right exercises and movement to strengthen my body. I'm surprised at how well I feel after only a few weeks. read more

Pilates Sante is a warm and inviting place full of very friendly and highly knowledgable staff. I started with PT for a back injury and found that building strength and learning new ways to move also helped dramatically with the chronic pain and weakness I experience due to lupus. As I grow stronger my instructor Renata challenges me with all kinds of new exercises and ways to use the equipment. I learn something new every week! The studio is not crowded when I'm there and the instructors are all highly trained and professional. Overall, I've grown in strength and I can do activities comfortably now that I couldn't do before. read more

I found this studio after the pandemic since I was looking for a studio that respected the COVID-19 protocols and I found this amazing place. I needed special attention after twisting both my ankles in 2020 and then twisting and breaking my right foot 6 months later. The instructors are incredible - Renata is phenomenal, Christine and Traci are amazing too. They care about form, how you breath and are so happy and love what they do. They truly care for us and are so knowledgeable. The studio is spotless clean and it's easy to schedule online. I am very happy I am working with them! read more

I have been going to Pilates Sante for treatment for chronic back pain for more than two years. The owner, Ariel, is a physical therapist and Pilates instructor. The staff includes other physical therapists, assistant physical therapists, and pilates instructors with experience in yoga, personal training, barre, dancing, and other disciplines. The facilities are clean, and appointments are on time. The office help is friendly and accommodating. Because there are several instructors, you can work with different instructors to find one that fits your needs and matches your personality. Individual and group lessons are available in person and by video. I recommend Pilates Sante for general fitness and rehabilitation. read more

I love Pilates Sante! I have been going there since 2019 and they have been there to help me get stronger and recover from back injuries, hip injuries and shoulder injuries. All along the way they have provided support and encouragement in a safe, clean and professional environment. I am able to go from PT services to Pilates instructors and alternate between the two. They share notes and always make sure I am working safely and within the constraints of my physical limitations. All of the instructors are amazing and I am confident that whoever I will see will take good care of me. They have also helped my daughters who are dancers through their injuries and got them back to dancing quickly and stronger than before. read more

I love everyone at Pilates Sante! They've been a huge help with my rehabilitation & I learned so much from them. Ariel & Therese are amazing & very patient with me, especially with my recurring flare. I also love seeing Shaina's smile, even under her mask. She is just so sweet! Thank you all for everything you've done for me! read more

This is where I send my patients for neuromuscular rehabilitation and training after I have done the manual therapy and basic home ex needed to start their healing journey. It takes a village to be better and mind-body connection through movement and strengthening is where you see long lasting results. Pilates Sante is not only good for the injured person but for true learning of proper Pilates form which is necessary to not become that injured athlete. Ariel, PT offers evaluations for rehabiliation and or muscle imbalance. She is then able to help you decide what your goals are and how to achieve them with her talented and PT trained staff.

Pilates Sante was recommended by my PT. 6 months ago, I crash landed on a rock while paragliding solo. I ended up with 5 fractures including my spine. Ariel, Christina, and Gabby from Pilates Sante team have been helping me getting back to my hobbies which include land and aerial acrobatics. It has been 2 months since I have been working with this team and I am amazed at the results. I went back to acro yoga for the first time in 6 months and it feels that my muscle control is better than even before accident. They are all so motivating and fun to work with. I am so glad that my PT told me about them. read more

Pilates Sante is one of the best things I've found in Los Gatos since moving here 6 years ago. The therapists are the best in the business! They are truly experts in their field. When I thought I couldn't get any better, Ariel encouraged me to have hope and to think differently. She was right! I am getting better, and I'm closer to living without pain. The thing I love the most about this business is the way the therapists truly and sincerely CARE about their patients. I have never felt rushed or like my concerns or questions didn't matter. They are supportive, thorough, and genuinely kind people. I would highly recommend Pilates Sante! read more
