Larissa Davies, B.S. Kinesiology

Classical Pilates Instructor, Yin & Restorative Yoga Teacher, Retreat Host

 

Hello and welcome! Thank you for your interest in learning more about my offerings. My name is Larissa, Instructor and Owner of Flora Grace Pilates & Yoga.

​

Mind/Body/Soul Movement has been an indelible part of my life for over two decades. My movement background is strongly rooted in its potential for healing, both inwardly and outwardly; I appreciate an elegant approach, emphasizing graceful fluidity and teaching clients to trust their inner intuition while keeping them safe throughout the exercises.

I opened my studio in December of 2022 at which point I decided to deepen my knowledge of Pilates. Having a background in Kinesiology and physical therapy, along with a profoundly spiritual need for inspiration, I found Inelia Garcia of The Pilates Studio Brasil and decided to train with her. I enrolled in Inelia's Contrology Program in New York City & São Paulo, Brazil, a program designed for certified Pilates teachers seeking a deeper level of understanding of the Pilates method. 

​

To help my clients train as consistently as possible, I began offering virtual sessions when they couldn't make it to the studio in person. Over the past year virtual sessions have become increasingly popular with my students, which has led me to expand this offering to the general public. ​Virtual sessions are an amazing way to stay on track when life gets busy. It gives clients an opportunity to build a beautiful home studio space, which I am also available to assist with! 

​

My Tuscan retreats are an extension of my values. I love to seek out peaceful inspiration and diverse cultural experiences enveloped in warmth and beauty. Of all the places around the world to host a retreat, Valdirose is one of its kind - comfortably elegant and timelessly inviting.
