About Us
Our story, our philosophy, and the person who makes Talasofilia Pilates special.
Our Story
Talasofilia Pilates was born out of María Laura’s passion for Pilates and her dedication to helping others feel their best. With over five years of experience, María started her journey in Mazatlán before moving to Puerto Escondido with a dream of creating a space that blends the timeless principles of Pilates with a modern, welcoming approach. What started as a small studio with just one reformer has blossomed into a vibrant community of clients who truly believe in the power of mindful movement.
Today, Talasofilia Pilates is proud to be one of the top boutique Pilates studios in Puerto Escondido, known for its expert instruction and warm, inviting atmosphere. Our mission is simple: to offer a space where everyone, no matter their age or ability, can explore the benefits of Pilates and deepen the connection between mind and body. Whether you’re new to Pilates or have been practicing for years, we’re here to support you on your journey to better health and wellness!
Our Philosophy
At Talasofilia Pilates, we believe that Pilates is more than just exercise—it's a pathway to a balanced, mindful life. Our approach is guided by these core principles:
Mindful Movement
We emphasize the connection between mind and body, encouraging awareness of every movement and breath.
Personalized Approach
We recognize that every body is unique, and we tailor our instruction to meet individual needs and goals.
Quality Over Quantity

Maria Laura Osuna
Founder & Lead Instructor
Maria first experienced Pilates in her hometown of Mazatlán. After dancing throughout her childhood, she stopped at age 16 and began searching for a new way to stay active—but nothing resonated with her until she discovered Pilates. She fell in love with the practice when she started noticing real changes in her daily life, such as improved flexibility, strength, and overall well-being. After completing her comprehensive certification, she started her teaching journey at the very studio where she had first discovered Pilates.
Maria believes that Pilates is for everybody and every body. Her teaching style emphasizes proper alignment, breath, and the mind-body connection, helping clients develop a deeper awareness of their movement patterns and potential.
