OUR STORY
SWAY PILATES WAS FOUNDED IN 2025 BY JADE, AFTER YEARS OF PERSONAL PRACTICE AND A DEEPENING CONNECTION TO THE BENEFITS OF PILATES—BOTH PHYSICAL AND MENTAL.
OVER TIME, JADE REALIZED THAT WHAT SHE VALUED MOST WASN’T JUST THE MOVEMENT, BUT THE ENVIRONMENT IT CREATED—A SPACE FOR SELF-CONFIDENCE, BALANCE, AND GROWTH. SHE ENVISIONED A STUDIO THAT FELT GENUINE, INCLUSIVE, AND COMPLETELY FREE FROM THE STEREOTYPES OF PILATES BEING EXCLUSIVE TO THE WEALTHY OR RESERVED FOR CERTAIN BODY TYPES.
SWAY PILATES WAS CREATED TO BE DIFFERENT—A SAFE SPACE WHERE PEOPLE OF ALL SHAPES, SIZES, BACKGROUNDS, AND EXPERIENCE LEVELS COULD FEEL COMFORTABLE WALKING IN AND STRONGER WALKING OUT. IT'S A PLACE TO MOVE, TO BREATHE, TO CONNECT, AND TO BUILD FRIENDSHIPS—NOT JUST BODIES.
EVERY CLASS AT SWAY IS BUILT AROUND COMMUNITY, ENCOURAGEMENT, AND REAL PEOPLE—NOT PERFECTION. THIS STUDIO EXISTS TO HELP CLIENTS FEEL EMPOWERED IN THEIR OWN SKIN AND TO ENJOY PILATES WITHOUT PRESSURE OR EXPECTATION.
OWNER / INSTRUCTOR
JADE MARRAZZO
MEET JADE, THE FOUNDER OF SWAY PILATES. SHE MOVED TO SWITZERLAND FROM AMERICA IN 2023, WHERE SHE MET AND MARRIED HER INCREDIBLE HUSBAND.
HER JOURNEY WITH LEARNING GERMAN IS AN ONGOING ADVENTURE—PRACTICING AND PROGRESSING EVERY CHANCE SHE GETS.
PHOTOGRAPHY WAS HER FIRST LOVE, BUT OVER TIME, HER PASSION FOR MOVEMENT AND FITNESS GREW JUST AS STRONG. SHE BEGAN WITH WRESTLING, AND WHILE SHE STILL TRAINS IN JIU-JITSU FROM TIME TO TIME, PILATES HAS BECOME HER TRUE FOCUS.
WITH YEARS OF PERSONAL PRACTICE BEHIND HER, JADE IS NOW TAKING THE NEXT STEP—TRANSITIONING INTO TEACHING AND BUILDING A SPACE OF HER OWN. SWAY PILATES IS THE START OF AN EXCITING NEW CHAPTER, AND SHE’S LOOKING FORWARD TO SHARING IT WITH YOU.
