About Me
Hi, my name is Mika Midolo. I am a certified Pilates and fitness instructor, a mom and wife
​
My Story
I was an on-air personality for 24 years on CP24, and 2 of Toronto's number 1 morning shows, CP24 Breakfast and City Tv's Breakfast Television, radio stations; Newstalk 1010 and 680 News. I was waking up at 3am, Monday to Friday, and it was taking a toll on me. I needed to keep both my body and mind in balance, and I found the answer in Pilates. Movement has always played an important role in my life, I loved gymnastics, swimming and participating in sports in my younger years and how it made me feel. I have always had a passion for how the human body moves and the potential it has and how it is connected to mind and spirit.
I immersed myself in the various methods of Pilates in 2001, adding weights and props as I progressed. I continued practicing during my pregnancies and postnatal (one was a natural birth and the other a Caesarean) I had endometriosis and pelvic tumour surgeries.
In 2015 I got my PiYo certification, a class combining Pilates and Yoga and started teaching group classes. In 2018 I started training to obtain my certification in the Joseph Pilates method.
​
In May of 2021, after I received my full Pilates certification, I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a form of blood Cancer. I did 6 months of aggressive chemotherapy treatments and 30 days of radiation. Pilates restored my body, flexibility, strength and mental wellbeing and still does. I believe and trust in the Pilates method. Pilates is for everybody and every body.
​
I also love to spend time with my family and friends especially outdoors. I love to read, listen to music, dance, eat and travel. I will do Pilates all over the world. I look forward to moving with you.

Testimonials

"Mika is the best Pilates teacher. I was nervous to try Pilates for the first time, but those fears disappeared when I tried her in person class, a few years ago. She was super patient and she explains everything beautifully, in a way that we all understand. She gives different options to whatever level you are at. She took a break from teaching, and I tried other instructors but they just weren't Mika. I am thankful she is back, I absolutely love it and my small muscles thank her, that is for sure! Come check out her Pilates class, you won't regret it."
Anna R.
"I hit the jackpot with Pilates with Mika, Move with Mika!! It's the best of both worlds... a killer workout that doesn't kill you in the process. Mika has a way of pushing and inspiring you without you even realizing it. I'm so happy to have her class back in my life! Being able to have an amazing hour of Pilates from the comfort of my own home is the icing on the cake!"

My Clients Say
"I recently joined Move with Mika's Beginner Pilates zoom sessions. It's my first-time doing Pilates....I find the class is perfectly paced and Mika provides clear and easy instructions for each move throughout the session. It has been a great introduction and has me eager to learn more. Thanks Mika!"
"Mika is absolutely an amazing caring Instructor. Patiently explains proper forms to avoid injury and modifications for some of us who may need them. I look forward to our evening classes every week no matter how tired I may feel. At the end of the class, I feel rejuvenated and relaxed! I am so grateful to be working with Mika on my journey to continuous well being”
Edda K.
"Mika is a certified Pilates instructor who is very knowledgeable and passionate about Pilates. She takes the health and wellness of her clients very seriously. You can see this in the well thought out classes. I love how passionate Mika is about the health of mind, body and soul. She often passes along tidbits of information to help in these areas."
Elaine B.
"As a newcomer to Pilates I am so happy to have found Mika’s classes. She genuinely cares about each member, taking the time to ask us how we are and what we need to benefit. Mika is a top notch instructor adding a personal touch with her genuine kind and caring nature. I am grateful to be a member in her class."
Sylvia S.
"As a woman in her mid sixties, with three joint replacements, I was prepared to resign myself to my limited movement. It wasn’t until Mika’s classes that she gently brought me out of my self imposed physical prison and helped me to realize my own abilities to move my body. I am so proud to have her as my teacher."
