I go to this AMAZING pilates studio. Not only is the studio gorgeous, the owner, David, is a great instructor. I actually tried pilates classes at the local gym but it's just not up the level I'm used to Los Angeles. This studio is the only place i found here in Lugano where they use the pilates reformer and cadillac.

here's the website.

Ask for David and tell him Cecilia sent you = ) the only thing is they have a long waiting list but if you call during the holidays when a lot of people are away, you might be able to join a class (that's how I got started during the summer....he would send me a message whenver there was a space and eventually I became a regular goer)
