Subtle Body Pilates™ Therapist

A therapeutic approach to strengthening the mind-body connection

As instructors, we know that Pilates is designed to strengthen the mind-body connection. Yet, in most teacher training programs the depth of that concept is rarely explored.

As a result, many instructors feel stuck when client’s issues go beyond the physical, such as chronic pain, emotional imbalances or stress that shows up in the body.

Without the right tools, it’s hard to guide clients toward lasting change. That’s where Subtle Body Pilates comes in. Our program is designed for instructors who want to use the full power of the mind-body connection to help clients achieve lasting transformation from the inside-out.

For instructors who want to go beyond surface level techniques and create lasting transformation with their clients.

Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Tamara Celeste,

Welcome to my corner of the woods. The Subtle Body Pilates™ method represents my lifetime of personal study and dedication to understanding the mind-body connection and it’s impact on our overall health.

I was called to this work at an early age, having been initiated into the healing arts by the elders in my family who were energy healers and spiritual teachers from birth. I grew up witnessing miraculous healings take place, which solidified my appreciation for the power of mind-body integration for rapid regression and transformation both inside and out.

My passion for this work drives me to share everything I’ve learned; from the mental tools I use to help athletes overcome setbacks, to the ancient wisdom of spiritual traditions, all to create a Pilates method that transforms not just the body, but the entire being.

This unique blend of psychology, energy healing, and spiritual study forms the backbone of the Subtle Body Pilates™ teacher training program. A program designed to help you become the teacher who can guide clients toward lasting, holistic, whole body health.
