owner + founder
NCPT, comprehensive pilates teacher + perinatal corrective exercise specialist
Caroline believes good teaching begins with paying attention. Her approach to Pilates is thoughtful, specific + deeply rooted in helping people better understand their own bodies. Rather than chasing intensity or perfection, she teaches clients to notice, ask questions + build a practice that gives them more options in how they move.
Her path into teaching began back in 2013 with a desire to better understand movement during pregnancy + the perinatal period. What she found was a larger gap in the fitness world: too many people were being told what to do with their bodies without being given the education, context or care to understand why.
That became the foundation for Ritual Body Pilates.
Caroline opened Ritual in 2020 to create the kind of movement space she wanted to exist. Small, welcoming + deeply considered, with excellent teaching at the center of it. A place where movement isn't about performing, keeping up or fitting into a particular idea of what a Pilates body should look like.
Her teaching is detailed + curious, with an emphasis on organization, control + understanding the intention behind the work. She believes the smallest changes can often create the biggest shifts, and that a few well-organized repetitions are more valuable than doing more for the sake of doing more.
Above all, Caroline wants clients to leave with something that belongs to them: a better understanding of their body, greater confidence in their movement + more freedom in what they believe they're capable of.

gina auletta
comprehensive pilates teacher
Gina’s relationship with movement took on new meaning after experiencing a spinal cord injury from breaking her back. As she recovered, understanding her body became increasingly important, and Pilates gave her a way to explore not only how she moved, but why.
Through the method, Gina found a deeper connection between movement, breath + intention and began to feel stronger and more confident in her body. That experience sparked a desire to learn more, eventually leading her from student to teacher.
Gina brings that perspective into the way she works with others. Her teaching is grounded in helping clients build strength, develop greater body awareness + feel more connected to their movement. She believes that understanding what you’re doing can change the way you experience your body, and she loves helping clients discover that for themselves.
She continues to deepen her own practice + education and is grateful to now share the method that played such an important role in her own relationship with movement.
Maya filio
comprehensive pilates teacher
maya found pilates during a difficult season of her life, and it quickly became something she could return to, no matter the season. over the years, pilates has carried her through different versions of her body + even a kidney transplant, giving her a place to reconnect with herself along the way.
that experience shaped the kind of teacher she wanted to become. maya believes movement can be both challenging + reassuring, and that everyone deserves to walk into a studio feeling like they belong there, regardless of what they’re carrying with them.
her teaching is meticulous, curious + encouraging. she loves helping clients explore what they’re capable of while creating space to listen to their bodies, make choices + challenge themselves when it feels right.
above all, maya wants the people she teaches to leave with the same feeling pilates gave her: you + your body belong here.
