Today we’d like to introduce you to Luciana Davis.
Hi Luciana, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I’m Luciana, originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Fitness has always been part of my life, but discovering Pilates completely shifted my perspective and it strengthened both my body and my mind, and gave me a clear sense of purpose. During Covid, when everything felt uncertain, I sat down and started writing a business plan. I didn’t know when or if the opportunity would come, but I knew I had to be ready. When the chance finally arrived, I was prepared to step into it. Today, I’m proud to see that vision grow into a thriving studio. My journey is proof that hard work, resilience, and belief in yourself truly pay off.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road. Building something from the ground up never is. There were challenges, long hours, and plenty of uncertainty along the way. But I was lucky to have a husband who’s been my rock through it all his support helped me stay focused and push through the tough moments. The journey has been hard, but incredibly rewarding. Every challenge taught me something valuable, and it’s a constant reminder that hard work and perseverance truly pay off.
We’ve been impressed with Studio 7 Pilates , but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Studio 7 Pilates was built on the belief that movement has the power to change everything—your strength, your mindset, your confidence, and the way you show up in life. We specialize in contemporary Pilates with a focus on strength, precision, and intelligent movement. Every class is designed to challenge both body and mind, helping clients feel strong, capable, and connected.
What truly sets us apart is our passion for helping others. Whether someone is stepping onto a reformer for the first time or has been practicing for years, we meet each person where they are and guide them toward their next level. Our instructors are highly trained, encouraging, and deeply committed to helping clients achieve lasting results.
Studio 7 isn’t just a place to work out; it’s a space to grow, to build confidence, and to rediscover what your body is capable of. I’m most proud that we’ve built an authentic brand that stands for hard work, consistency, and real transformation. At Studio 7, we help people of all levels move better, feel stronger, and live with purpose.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
For me, success is about creating something that matters. It’s not just about numbers or recognition, it’s about building something with purpose and passion, even when the path isn’t easy.
As a woman entrepreneur, success means having the courage to start, the discipline to keep going, and the resilience to grow through every challenge. It’s being able to look around and see the people you’ve inspired, the community you’ve built, and the impact you’ve made.
True success is waking up proud of what you’re building and knowing you’re doing it your way…with integrity, heart, and perseverance.
