Balance Fitness – Pilates Review. Keep an eye out for the indigo-colored building at St. Clair & Yonge, that’s where you’ll find one of Sassy’s top picks in the GTA! This local gem ticks all the boxes: hyper-professional, impeccably clean, and home to some of the best instructors in the city. The studio has a warm, community feel where clients are known by name and truly looked after.
Whether it’s a mat session or a private lesson, Derek Friday’s approach challenges even the fittest attendees. His expert eye ensures your form and core strength are spot on, making his classes a workout you won’t forget. Sassy highly recommends booking a few private sessions with Derek before tackling any reformer Pilates classes (like Lagree). He’ll assess your form, core stability, and muscle alignment, helping you stay mindful of your body’s needs and limitations.
If you’re serious about Pilates or just want to experience the best in the GTA, Balance Fitness and Derek won’t disappoint.
