For the past 14 years I have looked forward to my 9 am Pilates class at Palm Desert Pilates with Patti. She has taught us how to move safely and strengthen our core. My husband is an orthopedic surgeon and has attended her classes. He marvels at her ability to understand physiology and movement. Her studio is immaculate and a zen place of comfort, and most of all I could not exist without this studio.

Patti provides an environment for learning and experiencing growth in technique, strength and flexibility. She encourages us with her words, treats all of us with respect and is kind and caring. Because we learn in such a positive way we have a studio filled with friendship and a desire to help each grow not just in our Pilates abilities but in our lives. I leave Patti's class with my body stronger, my mind better and best of all, my heart filled with joy!

No better place than Palm Desert Pilates in Indian Wells. Small classes assure that Patti can be attentive to everyone and their individual needs. Having Reformers, Cadillacs and Chairs allow for choice and multitudes of ways to strengthen your body. Warm-up and stretching change daily so as to get to different parts of the body. There is truly no one better in the valley than Patti for excellence in Pilates training.

I have been going to Palm Desert Pilates for 3 plus years. Patti, the owner and instructor was a ballet dancer and has enormous experience dealing with students injuries. In my personal opinion, she teaches how to practice Pilates the right way. Not some new hip way, but the classic knowledge of the way Joseph Pilates had created to rehabilitate and strengthen the body. I have been doing Pilates for 20 plus years from LA to NY. She is excellent at working with older clients who want to keep their body young. I highly recommend this studio.

I was searching for a true Pilates studio with quality instructors who utilized all the equipment developed by Joseph Pilates. I found all of it at Palm Desert Pilates. Patti Saunders, the owner studied with many Master Pilates instructors. She adheres to the foundational principles that have benefitted millions. Her group classes include stretching, strengthening and lengthening-a balanced, full body workout. I also have attended several of her Instructor Training classes, and her instruction is top notch. She thoroughly explains and demonstrates the Pilates principles. Pilates helps me do everything better even hitting my golf ball farther!
