Parwez Hamidi

Instructor
After graduating from Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Academy in San Francisco in 2004, Parwez honed his abilities at a variety of fine dining restaurants in San Francisco and Newport Beach. Parwez's life took a new turn when he joined the Navy in 2014 as a Gas Turbine Mechanic, but his service was cut short after 7 years due to an automobile accident that resulted in cervical disc herniations, a torn rotator cuff, and labrum. Following shoulder surgery and a careful decision to avoid a cervical discectomy, Parwez discovered Pilates. This was vital in his healing process. What began as a way to rebuild his strength and mobility quickly turned into a passion for Pilates. This experience inspired Parwez to choose a different path and begin studying to become a Pilates instructor, and he is now dedicated to helping others attain strength and balance through this practice.
