About Me
Hi, my name is Mika Midolo. I am a certified Pilates and fitness instructor, mom and wife
​
My Story
I was an on-air personality for 24 years on CP24, and two 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 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 connection 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 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.

"I attended Mika’s retreat last year (2024) and it was an amazing experience!
Mika welcomed me into her home and made the stay so enjoyable. The weekend was packed with many fun events including a warm welcome and snacks, long group walk, wonderful dinner and breakfast, amazing pilates classes and very relaxing meditation class.
I am looking forward to the 2025 retreat and to see what Mika has planned for us!"
Tracey G.
I attended Mika’s retreat in 2024 and I have to say it was a transformative experience that combined health, wellness and fitness. Mika is so warm and friendly, always radiating a natural positive energy throughout the two days I spent with her. I felt like my stay was meticulously organized down to the smallest detail, all the way down to the delicious and healthy meals. Also, the thoughtful farewell surprise Mika so graciously gave each of us as we parted for our journey home, feeling renewed and with an improved sense of self."

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!"
Lianne B.
Almost two years ago, I found out about Mika’s pilates classes through social media. Thought I would give it a try as it seemed like a great idea to be able to attend classes remotely and still get the feel of being in a group setting and meeting new people. I’m am so happy I did this! Mika is amazing! She is knowledgeable, funny and such a warm and caring person. I feel like I am part of a family every Monday and Wednesday night and the classes certainly help me strengthen my muscles and core. Mika changes up the routine regularly so it never gets boring! I am hooked on Pilates by Mika!!!
Tracey G.
Mika’s Pilates classes are exceptional! She is an amazing instructor. She always communicates clearly and she is so enthusiastic, positive and encouraging. The workouts are great…I love the mind-body connection, the focus on breathing and the challenge of the variety of movements. At the end of each class I calm and focused, as well as strong and well stretched out. I love that I can attend her classes on line. I am so glad I started taking her classes and would highly recommend them to anyone interested in a fun and well rounded workout.
Sylvia G.
At the conclusion of every session with Mika, she hopes that I feel lighter, longer and stronger… and I do. I’ve been with Mika for the better part of three years and my overall mind and body have improved as a result. Mika is a professional and passionate Pilates coach, and leads each session with knowledge and care. Regardless of one’s physical makeup , age or ability, Mika brings out the best in each of her students. I recommend her highly and look forward to continuing this journey of strength, length and lightness.
Ann S.
I can't say enough good things about this Pilates class! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, calm, and uplifting. The studio is clean, well-equipped, and has a peaceful vibe that immediately puts you in the right mindset. The real highlight, though, is the instructor. Every class feels like a full-body reset. I've noticed a huge improvement in my core strength, posture, and flexibility since I started. Plus, the focus on mindful movement has been great for my mental well-being, too. I highly recommend Move with Mika Pilates!

Mika creates an inclusive atmosphere and always provides alternate options for beginner students. She is attentive and ensures proper Pilates poses are being used, keen on ensuring students learn and do not injure themselves. I always look forward to the in-studio sessions, they are for physical and mental health."

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."
