Thanks to our cousin, my sister and I finally tried a free personal training session with Silvia at Vai Fitness. We thought we wouldn't have time and that it just wouldn't happen because of cost and time, etc.. Well let me tell you, after meeting Silvia and half way into our free trial workout session, I was giving my sister the look.. the look of "we have to find a way to make this work and come here" and coincidentally so was my sister. We are in our 4th week of personal training with Silvia and we love it. We also take her Pilates & HIIT classes in addition to the personal training we do. Silvia is an awesome & caring trainer, she takes the time to customize our workouts each time and our nutrition plan and checks in with us almost daily to keep us accountable. She is helping us understand sustainability and the importance of nutrition and fitness and teaching us how to balance it all out everyday. Silvia & her team are so knowledgeable in fitness and nutrition. They teach you the proper techniques when doing a workout and help you engage specific body parts, muscles, your core, etc.. After 3 weeks of training with Silvia, I was able to conquer the backside of Cowles Mountain without stopping, maintaining my breathing, and making it to the top in my fastest time ever... I couldn't recommend Silvia and her team at Vai Fitness enough. Vai Fitness was the best health choice my sister and I made.

Hi! This is going to be my second month doing Group Training at Vai Fitness with the amazing Silvia and Jana, Can't recommend then enough, since I lost 40 pounds I was looking to tone my body and get muscle strength. Well, every day I'm getting stronger so proud of myself and so grateful to Vai Fitness for helping me have a better life and feel so welcome, you all are like my CA family. #bestgymsandiego Hola Este será mi segundo mes haciendo entrenamiento grupal en Vai Fitness con la increíble Silvia y Jana. Recomiendo este Gym 100%. Desde que perdí 40 libras, estaba buscando tonificar mi cuerpo y ganar fuerza muscular. Bueno, cada día me estoy volviendo más fuerte, así que estoy orgulloso de mí misma y muy agradecido a Vai Fitness por ayudarme a tener una vida mejor y sentirse tan bienvenida, todos ustedes son como mi familia de CA.

I have been going to Vai for several years and there is no better place to train, hands down. The class sizes are small so everyone gets a lot of personal attention and correction. I have been in the best shape of my life working out at Vai due to the high quality instructors and I enjoy every single workout as the owner, Silvia, has worked hard to make Vai not only a fitness studio but also a place I have found an amazing community and great friendships. In addition to Silvia, I absolutely love Melissa classes and highly recommend. She delivers a challenging workout and is also very nice and easy to talk to. Try out Vai and I am sure you’ll love it! The studio often offers specials for new clients so check it out.

I have been taking both Pilates mat & reformer classes with Silvia at Vai Fitness for about 8 years and definitely can say the benefits are real: improved flexibility, joint mobility and muscle elasticity better strength & balance. Silvia is extremely attentive to her clients and will work with you to achieve your goals and is very flexible with the workouts. One of the things I like most about her classes is that she does a great job at keeping things fun and interesting by changing up the classes all the time. She has a lot of knowledge of nutrition and all types of training including body transformation & specialty training such as for triathlons or marathons. I highly recommend Vai Fitness.

Awesome place to either do Pilates on the reformer or Springboard and get some Personal Training with weights. Knowledgeable and freindly staff who motivate you to get into shape. The owner Silvia is a true gem along with her other trainers they make you feel welcome and relaxed. She is very experienced in both areas of Pilates and Personal Training there's not a question she can't help you with and guide you along the way to achieve you fitness goals. Love working out here always have a helpful hand there and enjoyable time while I'm sweating .

This studio is such a gem! Vai is intimate and equipped with everything you could ask for to meet your health and fitness needs. I took a reformer class with Silvia which was catered to each student's skill level and goals. Smaller classes mean more focus on each student's form and allows for more hands on adjustments. I'm definitely coming back to try the other equipment and classes they offer...there really is something for everyone! This is studio is exactly what the neighborhood needed - charming, welcoming, and a great sense of community!

My life has changed since I was introduced to SILVIA GIAMANCO. I am 81 years old and have a genetic desease. After the Covid I had to be so confined that I lost my muscles. 7 months ago Silvia was highly recommended to me and I work out pilates 3 times a week. I feel so great. It is hard to believe. I had many Pilates teachers but her 25 years of experience and her desire to help you to get better is immeasurable. She is so knowledgeable about every part of the body that JOSEPH PILATES would have been so proud of her.

I was hesitant to start pilates in my mid 60s but fortunately i found Vai Fitness. Silvia and all of the instructors have knowledge to make sure you are not injured. Every class is challenging and fun and improvement is fairly quick. My strength, flexibility and core all have improves. You get individualization, even when group classes were available. Now with semi private and private you are safe and imprvement is even faster. This is the place to go whether you want mat or reformer pilates,

I have been going to this studio for the past 4 years and cannot say enough good things about it. My body has been completely transformed. It's a chill, family environment. Not stuffy like many other studios I have been to. You cannot beat the workouts with Silvia (the owner), Karama and Melissa. Also, just got back from a Vai pilates retreat on the Amalfi Coast of Italy! Ate pasta for days and came back thinner from all the working out :)

For Mat Pilates (and Reformer) this is the best! Our trainer, Silvia, has years of experience and solid background, so the classes are structured to meet each student's need, for muscle toning and strength, as well as rehabilitation. Posture improvement and balance are added benefits. The atmosphere is welcoming and encouraging, for beginners as well as long-term students. Having such a studio downtown, with easy parking, is a real asset.

I've been working with Silvia for 2 months now and the results are phenomenal! The best part about working with her is her positive, upbeat attitude that motivates you to keep going. Silvia truly cares about her clients and it shows. I highly recommend her! She offers a free fitness assessment to all new clients, do yourself a favor and take advantage of the free offer!!!

I can not recommend Vai fitness enough!! I lived a block away from them last year and took group classes with Silvia and Jana 4 times a week. The classes were small , challenging and so much fun! Unfortunately, I had to move out of the area. Hoping to move back next year and join them again. The best fitness studio in San Diego! ❤

I attend Vai fitness 3 days a week for their Pilates reformer classes. I absolutely love it. I've trained with both Pilates instructors Silvia and Katherine, and they are both fantastic. They're very attentive, experienced and motivating. The classes are intimate and always different. I'm never bored, the hour session flys by.

I’m beginner and I started taking pilates reformer classes once a week with Silvia a few months ago, I can’t be more happy with the attitude, personalized attention and cleanliness of the studio . I highly recommend the studio and all the classes that are offered, you will love it !!

Silvia is phenomenal! Her and her trainers do a fantastic job working with everyone on their goals. Their pilates classes are fun and great.
