I combine Joseph Pilates' original method with my 30 years of practical teaching experience(30,000 teaching hours). I emphasize developing a stunning and age-defying physique, a natural result that occurs amongst all of my students. My unique and complete technique creates superior body alignment,posture and muscular definition. The program is designed to provide the systematic and progressive improvement of the total person.
With her strong background in dance (and resultant injuries of her very own), Elizabeth Fowler is an excellent body worker. She knows physiology, has felt those aches and pains, and intuitively knows how to strengthen those areas that might need mending or tending to.
An expert on communicating the hows and whys and whatfors in clear and straightforward language, it's no surprise that she and Grace Studio are so successful. Elizabeth loves what she does and gets as much pleasure from her work as she gives.
With a strength of character that is, some may say, a bit unusual for L.A., Elizabeth has a passionate, infectious appreciation for life. A trusted practitioner of the body, she is wealthy in knowledge and gifted in knowing how to share that knowledge and her expertise.
Yet the gift that Elizabeth really shares is much more than a sound physical framework upon which to build or grow a strong, healthy body: she also feeds the soul.
You see, I've known Elizabeth, on and off for more than 10+ years, through ups and downs (literally and figuratively!), and in stages from tip-top to tip-TAP (with a cane) following a total hip replacement. By listening to my body's signals during rehabilitation, and being perceptive to the signs, she made me feel safe and secure and confident, not awkward and clumsy and anxious (which believe me, I was at first!).
In a way, Elizabeth was just as important to my rehab as the incredible Dr. Matta was in replacing my hip. I might not have been at my physical best self, but she brought out my best self -- and continues to do so to this day.
You, too, can trust her. Whatever goals you may have -- to be more flexible, or to gain strength or maybe just to be social -- call on Elizabeth to bring out the best in your body ... and in YOU!
OH; a tip: Elizabeth Fowler may be on the shorter side, but once you meet her you'll never shorten her name to Liz. She's a true Elizabeth in both name and demeanor: classically trained in more ways than one (she studies ballet, after all), she's charming and charmed; interesting and interested; upstanding and true. And rarely, if ever, blue.

The pilates experience with Elizabeth is like being on an expertly-guided journey that navigates your body's potential for strength. Her vigilant attention and nuanced understanding of anatomy allows for the most subtle and articulate corrections that hone right in on how you can exploit the exercise for the most fabulous results. It never fails that I walk away feeling leaner, more powerful, and more connected to my body.

Hello body, remember me? Elizabeth Fowler’s Pilates instruction is nothing short of an awakening of my body. I am honing everything from my toes up. Her instruction is informative, detailed, pointed, and funny. She calls upon me to call upon my best in every move. I have been lost in the crowd elsewhere, but with Elizabeth, I get what I need in every workout. I am stronger and longer. She is my favorite teacher ever!!!!
