Deborah Soules, owner of NY Pilates, has been teaching Pilates since December 1996. She was trained by Romana Kryzanowska, a protégé of Joseph Pilates, at the Pilates Studio of New York and has been in private practice full time for 13 years.

Deborah was a professional ballet dancer and actress for 28 years with numerous dance, film and theater credits. Professional dancers, like professional athletes, must have a solid set of core muscles to be successful and avoid injury. Pilates was designed to strengthen the body’s core muscles, providing an excellent foundation for lifts, vertical jumping, lateral speed and endurance. Deborah focuses on working the entire set of core muscles and training them to their highest possible level of fitness. She has taught basketball players, competitive cyclists, runners and numerous performers. Deborah creates a unique workout program specifically designed for each client that provides the best possible results for both the core and other muscles of the body. Deborah has also taught yoga, creative movement and various stretching programs for both teens and adults. She takes a very holistic approach to Pilates and utilizes the original Pilates reformer, the Wunda Chair and mat routines specifically designed to maximize the training benefit for each client, based on their individual needs. Here are what some former clients have said about Deborah’s approach to Pilates:

“Deborah introduced me to Pilates in New York City where we worked together for four years. I cannot say enough good about the benefits that resulted from her work. Deborah helped me physically and mentally. She focused on my posture which needed work. In just a few sessions with Deborah, my body changed in a positive way and I became more focused. Deborah really knows the human body and how to work it and improve it.” Sue R. Former Editor Time Magazine, New York, NY

“(For) five years (Deborah) was my Pilates instructor and a fantastic one at that. She is smart, caring, and very committed to her work (in) Pilates.” Carol R., Formerly The National Board of Review, New York, NY

Pilates is a total body workout that strengthens and stretches at the same time. Improved bilateral alignment and enhanced balance are two definite advantages that Pilates training provides. Plus, Pilates achieves results fast! Clients have reported feeling tremendous benefits from the very first training session. Pilates is a complete workout by itself, or it is an excellent addition to any workout as a tremendous way to improve results of the entire training regimen.

Deborah is pleased to be associated with Trucks Training and her Pilates instruction is an excellent companion training program to the football preparation that Trucks provides.
