Pilates Instructor • Wellness Retreat Leader • Founder of Vai Fitness
Meet Silvia Giamanco

Movement has been at the heart of my life for over two decades. As a passionate Pilates instructor and retreat organizer, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people feel stronger, more connected, and truly at home in their bodies.
I founded Vai Fitness, a boutique Pilates studio built on the belief that personalized, mindful movement has the power to transform lives. My approach is rooted in technique, body awareness, and compassion supporting each client, whether they’re just beginning their journey or rebuilding after injury, to move with confidence and joy.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of individuals from all walks of life, and what inspires me most is witnessing their growth not just physically, but emotionally and mentally.
My deep love for wellness and travel naturally led me to create Pilates and wellness retreats immersive experiences designed to nourish the body, quiet the mind, and reawaken the spirit. These retreats are more than just a getaway; they are an opportunity to reconnect with yourself through movement, nature, and meaningful community.
Whether I’m teaching in the studio or guiding a group in the mountains or by the sea, my mission remains the same: to create a safe, inspiring space where people can move well, feel well, and live fully.
