We're in a Journey to Self-Love and Empowering Movement

Our story grew from a deep passion for Pilates and body-affirming movement, shaped by 2.5 years of co-owning a studio and witnessing the ways movement can empower, connect, and transform. What began with a Pilates certification grew into a love for Pilates, barre and yoga, inspiring a vision for a space where movement feels welcoming, and personal.

​

Rooted in Belmont Cragin, one of Chicago’s vibrant Latino communities, Amor Pilates was created with intention: to make wellness feel more inclusive, especially for women of color who may not always feel represented or comfortable in predominantly white fitness spaces. We believe everyone deserves to feel seen, supported, and celebrated in their movement journey, regardless of their experience, background, or where they are starting from.

​

The name Amor is at the heart of everything we do. It represents our love for community, our love for movement, and our belief in the importance of self-love. At Amor Pilates, there is no expectation to show up as anyone other than yourself. We meet you where you are, encourage you to move in ways that feel good, and create space for you to grow stronger — physically, mentally, and beyond.

​

More than a studio, Amor Pilates is a community built on connection, belonging, and the belief that caring for yourself is something to celebrate.

​

Come as you are. Move with intention. Lead with amor.
