Meet Delfina
Hi there, I’m Delfina Goyenechea Resendes. I was born in Argentina, raised in California, and my summers were spent in New York City. These experiences gave me passion for travel, fashion culture, food and good design. A childhood filled with a lot of adventures opened my world to the love of always being on the move and staying as healthy as possible to do so. As a teenager, I began making fresh pressed juices, learned to cook vegan meals and explored every exercise I could to become the best version of myself. Yoga, kickboxing, rollerblading and weightlifting were a big part of my young adult life and I dove deeply into a vegetarian lifestyle.
Architecture runs through my family and after studyng it myself, I discovered that my heart was in fashion and I found my way to Nordstrom where I spent 9 years as a makeup artist then Personal Stylist, as well as a teacher of customer relations and sales to Nordstrom employees. After having my first child it was time to transition to becoming a stay-at-home mom. Two more babies later, my days were spent writing a blog, crafting creative parties, and cultivating a community of supportive moms. Once all three kiddos were in preschool and elementary school it was time to think of my own career once more.
Pilates came into my life after baby #3 and it healed my body from the aches of 3 babies in 3 years, strengthened my core like I never imagined and gave me confidence to thrive in my inner power. The urge to share this with the world was a guide to become a teacher myself. Fortunately, one of the best training programs in the world from the United States Pilates Association is not far from home and where I received my training. Second generation teachers, David Freeman and Brett Howard who were certified by Romana Kryzanowska, led me to a comprehensive education of Pilates as Joseph Pilates intended it to be. My certification included 1000+ hours of training, observation and teaching. In addition, I have attended workshops in New York and Portugal, as well as trained in Spain to solidify my ability to teach in Spanish. I will continue to forever increase my knowledge through traveling the world with Pilates. As an eternal student my personal growth and ability to advance through the method of this intricate system will continue to multiply. My passion for people, love of design, optimum health and well-being have all come together in my career as a Pilates teacher and studio owner. It is an honor to share my knowledge, support my clients to find their deepest strength in movement and welcome the Delray Beach community to our meticulously designed Delfina Pilates Studio.
