About Practice Living Softly
Practice Living Softly is a collective deriving from three core principles: the act of taking care of ourselves, the desire to take care of others, and the need to create Third Spaces for everybody to come together.
Taking care of ourselves shows itself in so many different ways.

Our story
Cura Pilates and Sonder Pilates are the representation of that first pillar and the beginning of our collective—Pilates studios that have been the home of our personal self-care journey and that we hope will be your home as well.

More of our story, ready to unfold.
01Our philosophy+
Cura Personalis is a Latin phrase meaning, “to care for the whole person.” This, combined with the actualization of the concept of sonder—which is defined as “the sudden awareness that every person around you has their own history, fears, aspirations, and deep meaningful lives”—has been the driving force behind our entire collective. We want to create the experiences, results, and spaces that envelop these principles without any sacrifice by going above and beyond in everything that we offer.
02Care in practice+
Use this space to describe how thoughtful instruction, personal attention, and welcoming studios shape the way your collective cares for people.
03Where we are growing+
We are expanding throughout the Greater Phoenix landscape, from Surprise to Gilbert! We want to bring price and location accessible private 1-on-1 Pilates to as much of Arizona as we can.
