Brooke Siler began her Pilates training in 1994 under Joseph Pilates’ protégée, Romana Kryzanowska, where she spent a decade studying under Romana’s masterful tutelage before opening her award-winning Manhattan studio, re:AB Pilates, in 1997. Brooke was quickly embraced by Hollywood’s A-list, from Madonna to Dustin Hoffman, and her reputation as one of the leading voices in Pilates was firmly established.
However, Brooke is probably best known for penning the New York Times best-seller The Pilates Body, which has become the top-selling Pilates book of all time. In 2025, the revised and expanded second edition of The Pilates Body was released, reaffirming her influence and expertise. Brooke’s other titles include Your Ultimate Pilates Body Challenge and The Women’s Health Big Book of Pilates. In 2021, she also launched her passion-product, The Tensatoner™, a fitness teaching tool inspired by two of Joe Pilates’ lost apparatus.
Since moving to the UK in 2015, Brooke has continued to teach classes, courses, and conferences worldwide. She has remained at the forefront of the Pilates community for over 30 years because she continues to be fiercely passionate, purposeful, and authentic in both her person and her work.
