French Riviera Wellness

French Riviera Wellness, home of Studio SŪD, is a small-group movement studio on Judson Road in north Longview. The studio describes itself as an intimate space bringing a bit of the South of France to East Texas, with classical Pilates at the center of the programming and a teaching staff the studio says has more than 20 years of experience. Class offerings listed on the studio site include Pilates matwork and Pilates reformer, the GYROKINESIS method, barre, yoga, the Garuda method, Prana Mat and TRX suspension training, plus private one-on-one, duet and trio sessions and GYROTONIC training on apparatus. There is an open-studio option for members and a fitness and performance track for people working toward athletic goals. Retreats and workshops show up on the calendar through the year. The studio also runs a Pilates Certification Online affiliate program for aspiring teachers, in partnership with the Pilates Studio of Los Angeles and Performing Arts Physical Therapy. Classes and privates are booked online, and new clients register through the studio site before their first visit.
