The focus of the  work at The Shape Shop Pilates & Fitness is to embrace the quality of movement,
Joseph H. Pilates developed this method over 60 years ago and it has grown and evolved today to become one of the single most valuable methods for increasing the structural integrity of the human body.

The exercises, the discipline and the commitment to precise and specific movement are all part of this extraordinary practice.

The integration of Mind and Body is so important that it takes truly a one on one experience with a teacher and educated eye to guide a person through the  specific movements.

The Shape Shop is an integration of Pilates and Fitness. Sue Aglietti Huntley has been the owner and operator and motivator for over 30 years.
The original Shape Shop was located in Santa Paula California just between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara and was opened in 1982, during the most influential period of the Fitness Craze.
Everyone from every walk of life was Jumping up and Down as fast as they could to face paced music to lose weight and lifting heavy weights to sculpt their bodies...
For 25 years this club was known for the innovation that Sue brought to her small laboratory for examination.
High Impact, Low Impact, Step Reebok, Slide Reebok, Sculpt & Tone, Kick Boxing, Yoga, just to name a few!
Never ever hearing the words Pilates until the early 90’s
From that early Fitness Era the professionals have begun to see the ramifications as the Pilates market increases with clients wanting to be free of pain and become more flexible..  
We now have a method that can extraordinarily strengthen, tone, reform,  lengthen and enlighten any one of any age... and provide us with sound movements that will transfer into our daily functional activities as well as enhance even the most accomplished Athlete in their  own chosen sport.
