Beatrice has been practicing Pilates for over 15 years. Her journey began with at-home videos which quickly turned into private sessions in Contemporary Pilates. For over a decade, Beatrice practiced Contemporary Pilates and then discovered the difference of the Classical Pilates Method.
“I was shocked, impressed and so happy with the changes in my body after switching to the Classical Method. After practicing Contemporary Pilates for so many years I didn’t think there would be much change, however, my strength, posture, and alignment have improved along with my waistline, LOL”. Turning her passion into a lifestyle, Beatrice has completed her comprehensive teacher training program via the Equinox Institute and mentored by Dervola Hamill.
“Pilates is a wonderful corrective form of exercise and I want to help others realize the potential within themselves”.

What Our Clients Say
“I’ve been going to Spark for more than 2 years now. I’ve tried many pilates studios around the world (Asia and North America) and Spark with Dervola and Halyna definitely tops my list! I was able to learn a deeper and more holistic form of pilates, the classical method, which I didn’t have the chance to during the 10 years prior practicing “pilates”. Going to them on a weekly basis helped relieve my brain fog, migraines, inflammation, back pain, other long covid symptoms and postural misalignments. It was the main relief I had after exhausting multiple avenues. If I were to pick a massage session or a pilates with Spark for feeling good, no question hands down Spark. I am grateful they exist! They are both skilled architects of functional and therapeutic bodyworks :) highly recommend!”
— From Sandy T.
“I’ve had an incredible experience at this Pilates studio! Dervola, my one-on-one teacher, is fantastic!! Her guidance has significantly strengthened me, even through injuries! The other teachers I’ve worked with are equally skilled and passionate. The studio is very welcoming atmosphere that puts you in the perfect Zen state for a great workout. Highly recommend!”
— From Aaron O.
“I just took my first ever pilates class and I would say I couldn’t have taken it from anyone better than Dervola the owner herself. She is very educated about the history of pilates and is very passionate about teaching her clients the philosophy of pilates and how to apply it to your everyday life. She was super friendly and warm, and made getting into the art super fun and interesting! I totally recommend coming here whether your a newbie like me or a pilates warrior.”
— From Sarah B.
