MEET LEE 👋
We’re excited to welcome Lee Stanford to the grit + tonic teaching team!
After years of competitive martial arts—and the injuries that came with it—Lee discovered Pilates as a way to rebuild strength and restore balance. That experience sparked his passion for intelligent, low-impact resistance training.
Expect thoughtful coaching, purposeful movement, and plenty of opportunities to build resilient strength.
Lee is teaching this weekend and Tuesday evenings. Come move with him! ✨
Reserve your reformer through the link in bio.

Why does Arianne Bautista Marsh - the founder of grit + tonic 💕reformer Pilates?
—
I’ve taught movement for more than two decades and I’ve done it all. (Seriously - step aerobics to Zumba to tai chi). Reformer Pilates has become one of the most valuable tools I’ve found for building strength, improving posture/flexibility + helping me feel better all over.😍
I really wish I had started reformer 30 years ago!
—
What I love most is that it’s not about how hard you can push/suffer/sweat or about doing the same thing week after week 😵‍💫, ̇lates challenges your stabilizing muscles, deep core - in every direction from head to toes.
It’s about how efficiently you can move your body for the long haul.🤍
—
Have you noticed a change in your body since adding reformer workouts into your life? If you haven’t added reformer to your wellness routine - why?🤍 Hope I get to see you soon. 💋

This is the LAST WEEK to take a class from Cameran Hurst — sign up now!
—
Although we are excited for her new adventure, we are sad to see her go. Cameran will be attending a 10 month pre-professional dance program in Massachusetts to train with the top choreographers in the U.S. It will prepare her for both commercial and concert dance career paths and offers private auditions for job opportunities and talent agencies.

Cameran, we will miss you at the studio, but look forward to having you back when you are in town!👨🏼‍🐰‍👨🏿🤍⚡️
