"Page and Pilates Nosara have completely changed my life for the better.
I had the best experience during my mat Pilates teacher training. Two magical, challenging and rewarding weeks of learning from Page. She is so educated and passionate I could not imagine choosing another place to learn and practice Pilates.
I loved my experience so much I plan to travel back to Nosara next year from Canada to continue my education with Page!"
