The Hooked on Pilates® (HOP) Story
Hi! I'm Martina, a physical therapist, Pilates instructor, massage therapist, anatomy nerd & entrepreneur...which I guess...makes me a Jill of all health & wellness trades!:) My mission is getting more people doing Pilates! However, Pilates equipment can be big & expensive. As a practical problem solver, I created the Minimax & Handibands which makes Pilates more adaptable, portable & accessible. Both patented products can be used together or separately of each other AND with or without traditional Pilates equipment. Safety, quality & versatility are important to me - as is helping people on their fitness journey. Focused mindful exercise does the mind, body & spirit good! This is especially true for people who feel out of control because of injury, illness, pregnancy or inactivity. Discover the Pilates difference and achieve your top form!
