Meet David Minicucci

David Minicucci, a seasoned Classical Pilates instructor with 15 years of experience, is also a NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) Personal Trainer. In addition to his expertise in Pilates, David holds multiple certifications, including CES (Corrective Exercise Specialist), SFS (Senior Fitness Specialist), and PN1 (Precision Nutrition Certification). As a licensed massage therapist in California and Hawaii, he specializes in various techniques such as Sports Massage, Swedish massage, and Deep Tissue.

David's journey into Pilates began with certification under Frank Zito at Elevation Fitness, followed by intensive training with Mari Winsor at Winsor Pilates. His unique experience includes working closely with Mari during her battle with ALS, providing valuable insights into both Pilates instruction and massage therapy. Further honing his skills, David worked under Saul Choza at Winsor Choza Pilates for five years, where Saul and Mari encouraged him to pursue Romana's Pilates International certification.

David's dedication to mastering his craft led him to study with Pilates masters Trish Garland, Cynthia Lochard, Michael Levy, and Mosses Urbano.

In 2020, he realized his dream by opening Minicucci Pilates, and has been at his current location since 2023. , David finds immense joy in teaching and sharing the knowledge he's gained. He takes pride in helping people move and feel better in their bodies, creating a positive and transformative experience at Breakthrough Pilates. With his expansive expertise, and passion for teaching, David ensures Breakthrough Pilates offers a comprehensive approach to fitness and wellness.

I've been doing personal Pilates classes with David for about 5 months and have seen such a huge improvement in my fitness, strength and flexibility as well as in my mental health. I love that there are elements in the routine that we practice most sessions with increasing difficulty, but that he also keeps things fresh and interesting across the various apparatuses.
David has a great attention to detail and makes sure my form is perfect. He's very hands on in a great way because he also does massages and helps get the maximum benefit out of stretches. No Pilates instructor I've ever had even comes close.
Plus cute dogs and he has a sense of humor that leaves me in stitches each time. Overall wonderful experience and always a highlight of my week.

I travel to LA for work a lot and I’ve finally found my Pilates home in WeHo!
A great chill space that’s cozy and not about the hype. I did private sessions with David and he's an incredible teacher. Every educator is different and I learned so much from him. I initially booked for one session and wound up booking more while in town. Cant wait to come back to see him next month when I’m in town.

I enjoy going to Breakthrough Pilates for CLASSICAL pilates classes. The studio is very clean, with a calming and modern aesthetic. Two cute dogs come with the "package", I love petting them before and after the class.
The equipments are from the brand "Gratz Pilates", which are top-notch and sturdy. I love how the classes are always varied, ensuring that each session challenges me in new ways while keeping me engaged.
What I appreciate most is the personal attention and adjustments David gives, ensuring that everyone is working safely and effectively.
