One on One Nutrition and Wellness Coaching

Nutrition plays a key role in our health journey. Many of us forget the importance of having a healthy and balanced lifestyle in order to make the best and healthiest choices specific to ourselves.

I work one-on-one with my clients enabling them to make healthier food and exercise choices. We can eat all the vegetables in the world, but if we are unhappy and stressed in our life, the body will never give us the results we desire. I believe that the body gives us all the signs we need to map out our ideal life; we just need to learn to listen.

Retreat Features:

Pilates & Fitness classes with Paola

Paola’s classes are designed to offer two distinctive experiences; one to energize and motivate you in the morning, and another to restore and calm your body and mind in the evening. Start your day with a heart-pumping Cardio Pilates session, and end it with a restorative class that tones and strengthens your body. Throughout the five-day program, Paola’s Pilates classes will help you to tone, lengthen, and strengthen your muscles, while also providing the right motivation to get back into shape, both mentally and physically. You will have the opportunity to train in the middle of nature, in the beautiful pavilion of the castle, where you’ll feel refreshed and recharged.

Indulge in ultimate relaxation at Acquadegna Spa. Inspired by Roman Thermal Baths, the SPA proposes the THERMARIUM (33°C) – hydro-massage pool 30 sq.m. with neck shower and chaise longue – and the so-called “Roman Baths” composed by TEPIDARIUM (37°C), CALIDARIUM (44°C), and the cold falls of FRIGIDARIUM (12°C).

The menu curated by Paola and the chef is truly a highlight of the retreat. They use only local, fresh produce from Umbria, carefully selected to provide nourishing and delicious meals.

I met Paola almost 2 years in a Pilates Studio in London, where she was teaching Pilates. Her classes were amazing and I could really see changes in my figure. During lockdown I joined Shapes so I can do Paola’s workouts from the comfort of my home. I started the health coaching with Paola in June, after a period of emotional eating and unhealthy food choices, in order to change my habits towards healthy living. My top goals were to practice mindful eating, improve my confidence and awareness and have a strong and lean body figure. Through her guidance, advice, continuous support and encouragement I have been able to find freedom, comfort and enjoyment in eating healthy, whole foods,without feeling guilty about having the occasional treat. Paola’s holistic approach to health and wellness has helped me become more energetic and flourish in all aspects of my life. She is also gave me great suggestion about things that I can add in my diet in order to have more variety in my meals and healthy recipes. Following the 80/20 nutrition is a way of living for me and I feel confident I will maintain the changes that I’ve achieved so far. Working with Paola has been life changing for me!

Having come out of a relationship I felt that I was slightly ‘lost’ in terms of where I was going with both my career and personal life, hence why I got in touch with Paola having always felt very inspired after her Pilates classes. In the three month period that I have been working with her, she has empowered me with such a positive outlook on all aspects of my life and I feel re-aligned as a result. I can’t recommend her and her approach more highly.

I met Paola about a year ago. I met her at a time when my lifestyle was not healthy resulting in being overweight, out of shape which did not make me feel good about myself. We started doing private sessions as I had a serious dislike to gyms and public training spaces. She was very astute  in recognising this and was able to make the sessions exciting and variable and I kept going back. Deep down I did not think I will see results but I kept going back because I felt wonderful after each session. I would walk out tall and felt much better within.

Paola is very compassionate and non judgmental and I started opening up to her. Her ability to listen without judgement is amazing. I trusted her and seeing her helped me immensely in letting go of the emotional luggage which I was holding onto which was sabotaging my progress.

After 3 months ago I started  seeing Paola in her capacity as a health coach and this is when I noticed a complete shift in my attitude to a healthier lifestyle.

Just like magic it all started to make sense and I started seeing a new me both physically as well as emotionally.

Paola has been my rock and I would not hesitate to recommend her as a Pilates trainer as well as a health coach–

I have met Paola about a year ago and started her Health/well being/nutrition program for 6 months. Paola is amazing in her way of coaching someone. She has a very strong psychological understanding of someone needs. She gives great advices and is there with you for every step of the program. She really helped me a lot in getting back my confidence and strength. I then started to follow every morning her Pilates classes online. There is a great variety of different classes and the weekly program is perfect.

I can only say that it is chance to be coached by her!

Paola’s approach to nutrition is so kind and positive and is truly centred on wellbeing. The little mindfulness exercises, positive nutrition and Pilates have made me feel so calm, revitalised and toned
