People of Cabo
Olivia Laurenzana
Founder of Oli Pilates
Olivia Laurenzana’s journey to Los Cabos was guided by a deep craving for growth—both personal and professional. The moment she stepped foot in Cabo, she felt a magnetic pull. The vibrant colors, the harmony of the desert meeting the ocean, and the tranquil energy of the landscape captivated her soul. She remembers that first visit vividly, describing it as love at first sight. "Es la combinación perfecta," she says, a perfect balance of nature that made her feel at home immediately. It wasn’t long before Olivia decided to make Cabo her permanent home, trading the rush of city life for the serene rhythm of magical Baja.
As a certified Pilates Mat and Reformer Instructor, Olivia's passion lies in helping others discover the power of mindful movement. More than just an exercise class, her sessions offer a complete experience—an invitation to connect deeply with one's body, to learn, to love, and to respect it in ways that transcend physical fitness. Through Pilates, she has built a community of individuals committed to improving their lifestyles through movement, sharing not just routines but a holistic approach to wellness.
A typical day for Olivia begins with three Pilates sessions, followed by walks that allow her to soak in the calming energy of the local landscape. She follows a vegan diet, carefully nourishing her body to stay aligned with her values of health and vitality. When asked what advice she’d give to someone looking to live a healthier, happier life, her response is simple yet profound: "Be conscious - want to heal from the inside out. For Olivia, true wellness is found in the small, mindful decisions we make every day. And while her practice revolves around Pilates, her true inspiration comes from the sea.
Watching the waves of the Baja coastline is a daily reminder for her that the world is full of endless possibilities. “Ver el mar te recuerda que existe un mundo de posibilidad y siempre habrá algo que agradecer,” she shares. This sense of gratitude, nurtured by the beauty of nature, informs her work and the way she interacts with her clients.
For Olivia, Cabo isn’t just a place—it’s a living, breathing source of inspiration. The natural beauty, combined with the warmth of its people, makes it the perfect environment for her practice. In every Pilates session, Olivia brings a piece of Cabo’s magic to her clients, encouraging them to honor their bodies and embrace the transformative power of movement. Through her unique blend of Pilates, mindfulness, and community, Olivia is helping shape a healthier, more connected Los Cabos, one conscious breath at a time.
For Olivia, Cabo has been the perfect backdrop to her personal and professional journey. The natural beauty of the region, combined with the supportive, health-conscious community, has empowered her to grow in ways she never imagined. “I have been able to create a community of people who want to improve their quality of life through conscious movement,“ she reflects. Her clients aren’t just there to work out—they are there to transform their lives, and Olivia is the guide who helps them on that journey. Her wellness philosophy is rooted in the belief that healing starts from within.
