"A one-time Olympic hopeful for the Ukranian gymnastics team, Nonna Gleyzer has an innate understand of how to stretch the human body to the limits of its potential. She’s also part of a long lineage of Kabbalistic Rabbis, so she understands some of the more nebulous stuff, too. While she can certainly work you out on a Cadillac (and does so with many of Hollywood’s leading ladies and men), you really go to Nonna for her capacity to immediately identify areas that are unbalanced and out-of-harmony, whether it’s postural or emotional (or both), and then set them right. She is a rare talent. While she has an unassuming studio in West Hollywood, she also occasionally does house calls."

The first time I walked into Nonna’s studio, she took one look at me and asked, "Have you injured your right hip or had surgery on it before?" I was stunned. I had (years prior), but aside from some residual tightness that I barely noticed myself, no one had ever picked up on it—except Nonna. Today, I experience this same level of astute observation and insight in every session with her. What I appreciate most about Nonna’s approach is that it goes far beyond aesthetics. Yes, she will transform your physique—there’s a reason celebrities train with her loyally—but where she truly shines is in restoring balance, solving movement dysfunctions, and making bodies work and feel better than before. My sessions with her often include a mix of manual release work and targeted Pilates exercises using various apparatuses. Every time I leave, I feel lighter, taller, and stronger. If you're committed to a long-term journey and real, lasting results—inside and out—Nonna will take you there. If you're just looking for a quick, trendy workout, there are plenty of other studios. Nonna’s reputation means that getting a spot with her can take some patience (sometimes there's a waitlist) but it’s absolutely worth it. Once you start training with Nonna, you’ll understand why people stay so loyal to her. Thank you, Nonna! xx

Nonna’s knowledge of the body is next level; this is more than Pilates and indescribable in a positive way. Given her background is in osteopathy, Chinese medicine, reflexology, and so much more - she delivers more than exercise - it’s a holistic body strengthening treatment that involves rehabilitating and preventing the most complex injuries. The bonus is that a gorgeous aesthetic is achieved!

Nonna’s training style is brilliant. She’s just as adept at tailoring basic workouts as she is to addressing alignment problems and rehabbing injuries. She makes constant adjustments as she observes and she uses well-honed techniques that heal and strengthen bodies. She has solutions for simple injuries or complex problems and is equally adept at creating impactful daily workouts. She tailors her work to each individual and she cares deeply about what she does. She is truly gifted and inspiring.

I would highly recommend Body by Nonna not only because she's an amazing Pilates instructor, but because she is in tune with what a body would need and capable to find the right kind of exercises for specifically targeted personal goals. I am a caregiver who is able to assist and stand by for safety measures for Nonna's 92+year old client. This is the hour of pure sunshine(Nonna) and inspiration(92+year old). Nonna gives the right kind of exercises that keeps my beautiful lady stay strong and flexible. It's incredible witnessing my lady put both legs up straight by her face without any sign of discomfort. She has a strong core and works hard with Nonna to achieve persistent goals. Nonna is a ray of light that shines in what makes her most happy, and that is by helping others achieve their goals. We look forward with our designated time with her. Thank you for all that you do Nonna. We love you!!

I started seeing Nonna a year after I had my first child. I was a collegiate athlete, and never shied away from a tough workout, but after pregnancy my body completely changed and I was terrified of injury. Nonna is like an architect of the body. Her expertise in correcting alignment and injury creates a strong foundation allowing her to build the body brick by brick. It's such a focused, healthy and 360 approach to exercise. I have seen improvement in my posture, flexibility, tone and strength. Her approach is slow and measured, but the results are remarkably fast and drastic. I love working with Nonna. There is no one like her and I know the work we do together will benefit me for a lifetime.

In merely a few sessions, Nonna has physically healed me from chronic pain and created noticeable shifts in my physique. Nonna is a true intuit and creates immediate trust and reassurance. She uses multiple modalities m that all come together to truly change the way one feels and looks. Through osteopathic realignment work and Chinese acupressure, Nonna has relieved me of pain. Through classical Pilates and deep stretching, she has begun to help me reshape my body. I came to Nonna in dire neck pain. She uncovered the physical alignment issues that were impacting my neck and resolved them nearly immediately. My physique has also started to dramatically shift. Nonna’s eyes are attuned to the every single inch of the body, and through working them, has made all of the difference. I highly recommend Nonna for anyone who wants to heal their body and change their appearance.
