The Canmore Pilates Studio Experience -
Centred Around You
Danielle Findlay Pilates is a classical equipment and mat studio focused on your personal journey to wellness through intentional movement, located in Canmore, Alberta.
A Holistic Transformation
Surrender to the experience. Bring new life to your body with deep, resonating breaths and allow yourself to be guided on a spiritual journey that rewards you with the magic of movement.
Using movement combined with Indigenous healing & energy practices, Danielle takes you beyond any normal fitness routine into a deeper connection with your body, mind and soul.
The Benefits of a Regular Pilates Practice
Classes use Reformer, Tower and Wunda Chair equipment and mats. A combination of exercises increases your circulation and the articulation and decompression of your joints, uniformly develops your muscles, and improves your strength and your body awareness.
Start your journey towards the best version of you

Nice to Meet You
“A regular practice of Pilates can change your life. I’m proof of that. “
After a lifetime of self-destructive and self-sabotage patterns that always had me trying to prove my worth and validate my existence, I felt disconnected. My 30-year corporate career left me always searching for more.
A bigger pay, a better title, more recognition - a path I thought would lead to more fulfillment and happiness, but instead made me more susceptible to obsession, compulsion and feelings of emptiness.
From my first Pilates class, I knew I wanted to teach. I finally felt the connection that I was missing.
I felt an immediate bond and a desire to share. I wanted to delve deeper and explore not only what my body was capable of but learn how I could help others reconnect with their mind, body and spirit to live a healthier, happier life. I wanted to be a cheerleader and supporter, an encourager and motivator.
Mahatma Gandhi said, “You must be the change you want to see in the world,” and I took that literally.
Aside from the physical benefits of Pilates, the movement brought light to my emotional pain and taught me that being vulnerable and facing my feelings of judgement, criticism and shame meant that I no longer had to hide or search for answers. I was free.
Completing my Classical Pilates Teacher certification at Embody School of Pilates and opening this studio has allowed me to connect with you, my community, on the deepest level as you understand, unravel and surrender to your own greatness. Supporting you on your journey is my life’s purpose..
Shine your light,
Danielle
