Sandy Shimoda is the owner of Vintage Pilates ~ a business that returns to Joe Pilates’ original method of exercise as it was taught to Jay Grimes.
Sandy has been teaching movement for 45 years and earned her initial certification from Romana Krzynowska. She was lucky to be a private client and collaborator with Jay Grimes for 20 years, giving her a unique opportunity to refine her craft. Sandy never tires of seeing clients move and feel better, helping teachers to understand Joe’s work more completely, and guiding studio owners toward success in their businesses. Sandy has contributed to the development of the Contrology line at Balanced Body, appeared in videos for Classical Pilates and Gaiam, and has been featured in Pilates Style, Pilatesglossy, VoyageLA, Pilatesology and The Pilates Link. You can work with her Online, at her Pop-Up studio in Honolulu, or when she guest teaches at studios around the world.
