San Diego Pilates

Experience is a critical element of an exceptional Pilates Instructor. Marshall Eklund earned his first fitness certification over 20 years ago. All of our trainers are required to have significant experience before stepping onto our training floor. Marshall Eklund PILATES San Diego boasts a team of trainers that has been helping our diverse clientele for many years. New staff is selected from our year-long STOTT PILATES™ Training Program based on their experience and demonstrated expertise. After hundreds of classroom and teaching hours, new trainers complete an extensive post graduate program under the watchful eyes of our Master Pilates Instructor Trainers.

In addition to the rigorous STOTT PILATES Training Program, our instructors participate in extensive ongoing post graduate education. Our instructors are the best in fitness in San Diego. They have a passion for knowledge and continually seek additional education in Pilates, applied anatomy, kinesiology, therapeutic methods and complementary disciplines. Marshall holds a Master Degree with an emphasis in Biomechanics. This background and knowledge was key in his choosing to partner with the scientifically based STOTT PILATES.

We are proud to be the STOTT PILATES Instructor Training facility for San Diego County. STOTT PILATES is considered by many to be the gold standard of Pilates Certification Programs. STOTT PILATES focus on applied anatomy, biomechanics and program design far exceeds programs that focus on choreography and repertoire alone. To earn the title of STOTT PILATES Certified Instructor, a student must complete extensive class and workshop time and pass a challenging written and practical examination.

The Marshall Eklund PILATES Studio in central San Diego is an incredible, beautiful and spacious facility. We are located at 1807 Robinson Ave, Suite 202 (2nd floor), San Diego, CA 92103. This convenient location is at the corner of Park and Robinson Avenues, right in the heart of the metro area. There is ample parking in our lot.

Great care has been taken to design a studio that is functionally perfect as well as esthetically pleasing and comfortable, (unlike a Pilates gym experience). A notable feature of our design is space. Breaking from the industry standard, plentiful space is allocated for the sake of comfort and movement even during peak studio hours.

We have a complete collection of STOTT PILATES equipment including six Reformers, four Cadillacs, two Split-Pedal Stability Chairs™, plus numerous Barrels and other small equipment.

As we approach our tenth year in business we continue to stay true to our original mission to provide the best possible Pilates training in San Diego for the best possible value. We offer a variety of programs and options to meet your needs and desires.

Considering our trainer’s level of experience and expertise, our sessions offer exceptional value. We always aim to keep a small class size for our semi-private sessions. When you are considering semi-private training, the number of clients in a class is extremely important for safety and training effectiveness.
