Mavericks of Movement brings together Classical Pilates, yoga, and movement education to help you move well and feel strong in everyday life. Based in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, I approach movement with curiosity, connection, and the belief that it should be accessible to everyone.

Whether you’re a beginner, an athlete, a mom, kūpuna, or finding your way back to movement, you deserve to feel welcome. Through thoughtful teaching and practical resources, I’m here to help you understand your body and build a practice that supports the life you want to live.

Take Class!

My name is Sophia, and I am a comprehensively certified Classical Pilates instructor, 200-hour certified yoga teacher, and kinesiology student at UH Mānoa. Before settling in Honolulu, I trained and danced ballet professionally in California, Texas, and Germany. My teaching brings together dance's somatic intentions and the science of movement to help you build lasting strength, understand your body, and move with confidence.

Nice to meet you!

TAKE CLASS!

  • Amazing class! A full body workout that challenged the muscles and left me feeling strong. Sophia takes the time to explain each exercise and corrects thoroughly as needed, offering support, guidance, and modifications when necessary. — Ellis B.

  • Sophia is a wizard!! Worked on my lats and shoulders and all the shoulder tension disappeared! — Julie T.

  • My first time taking a Pilates class so I was a little nervous but Sophia was such a great instructor. Put me at ease. Was able to complete the entire class. Looking forward to my next session! — Kanoe H.

  • Sophia has both studied as an apprentice and worked as a certified Pilates instructor at The Studio Marin, LLC. Throughout her time, Sophia has shown exceptional skills in working with people, her studies and mentoring her peers. Sophia always shows up with a positive and encouraging demeanor. She consistently puts in the extra time to learn more to improve her own knowledge and skills and never hesitates to put in more time to help others find their strengths too. — Sarah H
