Pilates with Fab – My name is Fabrizio (Fab), and I’m a Pilates teacher based in Paisley, Renfrewshire. In my younger years, I was very unfit and overweight until I found the determination and discipline to make exercise a big part of my life. I found a love of weightlifting and running, and gradually, my body changed. I grew to love exercise, and now I couldn’t imagine a week without it. However, I never wanted to make exercise a career until I discovered Pilates! I became hooked on how enjoyable the exercise itself was. The flow, the amazing movements, and feelings it brings out about in the body I hadn’t felt before.
I qualified as a Pilates teacher with Body Control Pilates in London in January 2021 and have loved sharing my enthusiasm for the method with others since then.
I have continued with my education and training in that time, having trained in the Pilates apparatus including the reformer. I have also achieved Body Control Pilates Master Matwork certification.
I love helping people to feel good in their own bodies. Most of us are much more capable than we give ourselves credit for, and with the right teaching can achieve a strong, and free moving body that feels great to live in!
I truly believe that Pilates is incredibly fun to practice, and I hope to make you feel exactly the same when you practice with me.
I look forward to helping you discover your best possible body, whether it’s on the mat in my classes or in my studio.

Or you can purchase the Pilates express package where you get an hour’s introductory private lesson with me, and your first class! This ensures you’ll feel ready and confident for your first class.
Private 1:1 Lessons and Duets 2:1
1:1 lessons allow you to work with me privately to achieve your unique goals. We will work together on a weekly basis using the Pilates system of both matwork and apparatus (equipment) to help you grow stronger, more mobile, & improve your body awareness.

My Reviews
My first experience of Pilates with fabulous Fab!
He is great at teaching both private sessions and classes. His classes are fun, but he makes you work hard at the same time.
Fab is very attentive and nothing is too much trouble which is great for me as being a total newbie I struggled even with the simple moves at first. Fab always takes time to explain patiently.
I highly recommend Pilates with Fab!.
Colin Cat
Fab is a born teacher.
His classes are fun and he also makes you work hard.
Every class is a little different so you get to experience exercises you didn't know existed! And you don't get bored.
Fab is always checking and correcting your posture so you do the exercises correctly. He is friendly and chatty making you feel at ease and relaxed straightaway.
Great classes.

Its been great finding Fab. I wanted to leave a review because he's been incredibly patient with pacing me back to better health with my FIbromyalgia. Varying the difficulty of exercises accordingly. I certainly feel better for seeing him.
He's a warm and enthusiastic teacher who takes time to ask us how we are through the week to. I'm certainly anxious about finding a replacement teacher.

I couldn’t recommend Pilates with Fab enough. As someone who hadn’t had any experience in doing Pilates, and who is also embarrassingly inflexible, Fab was the perfect teacher in easing me into this exciting and forward-thinking approach to getting the most from your body.
His knowledge and passion for the Pilates craft is wonderful - making his sessions a total joy to be part of. He is encouraging, optimistic, and is the breath of fresh air we all need from an instructor.
I can’t wait to book in again!

Having joined Fab’s classes both in person and on zoom, I’ve enjoyed every one. He is a natural in making you feel comfortable (coming from somebody who had never tried Pilates before!) I already feel like I’m learning and building my strength. I’d recommend for anyone who wants to try Pilates or who already loves it!
Lauren Hudson
Fabrizio completed part of his teacher training program under my supervision. I have always been impressed by his eagle eye, natural ability to lead a class and his forever positive attitude. My clients loved him! So much so that I now ask him to cover my classes when I am away. I know he will do a fantastic job and look after my clients including those with injuries and conditions. Highly recommend!
Diane Aben
So glad these classes started up - exactly what I was looking for. Fab is a great teacher and the classes have a lovely feel. Would recommend them to anyone!
Samantha Wilson
Brilliant sessions with Fab which has brought me back to Pilates. I’ve always been after a class which works me but is also relaxed without the pressure and this fits the bill perfectly! Thanks.
