HILARY HOFFMAN
Background:
After a decade in finance, I craved a workout that combined efficiency, results, and approachability—without compromising any one for the other—and created The Soto Method as the ultimate solution to my own problem.

Mindset
“Holding on for just one more second, whether in a plank or squat, serves as a powerful physical reminder of your agency. It becomes a tangible feeling that you can carry into your life and rekindle when you need it most.”
Mindset
"Movement is a reminder of what you’re already made of; it’s about showing up and finding that 1% more, together."
Mindset
"I'm grateful that my job allows me to help people feel good about themselves and their bodies through movement. While I may bring my sunshine personality to every class, I promise to deliver a spicy, well programmed full-body burn—and be your biggest cheerleader along the way!"
Mindset
"Every challenge is a chance to grow. Your outlook is everything!"
Mindset
"The truth is that hard things don’t get easier; you just get stronger by taking on the challenge."
Mindset
"Exercise isn’t just about discipline; it’s a celebration of what our bodies can achieve. In even just 20 seconds at Soto, you’ll challenge yourself while having fun, and carry that sense of lightness and energy into the rest of your day."
Mindset
"It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.' - Muhammad Ali"
Mindset
"Movement is medicine, a privilege, and a powerful reminder that you can do hard things while showing up to pour into yourself."
Mindset
"Magic happens when you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when you're done. When you tell yourself to stay in the fight just a little longer, you gain strength and most importantly, confidence when you see just how much you're capable of."
Mindset
"You don’t become strong by avoiding failure. You become strong by facing it, learning from it, and showing up again. Progress is built one comeback at a time.”
Mindset
"If you want something, you have to go and get it. No one can do the work for you. So be selfish with your time, take advantage of the chance to impress yourself and prove to yourself what you're capable of."
Mindset
"Showing up for yourself is the hardest part. The energy you create will carry with you throughout the rest of your day."
Mindset
"Let's celebrate everything your body allows you to do. Every step, every pulse, every breath is a reminder that your body is strong, capable, and worth celebrating."
Mindset
"Genuine positivity and knowledge is everything! I continue to be a cheerleader for this mindset inside and outside of the studio to give students the key to unlocking their potential."
Mindset
"I’ve always loved what happens when you put good people, good music, and a challenge in the same room. You show up for yourself, but everyone brings something to the room and everyone leaves with a little more because of it."
Mindset
"It’s you vs. you on the mat. Show up, challenge yourself, and focus on getting 1% better every day."
Mindset
"The ability to move freely is a gift, and caring for your body—the temple that carries you through life—is something to be deeply valued. Every movement is an opportunity to challenge your body, practice gratitude, and celebrate all that it is capable of!"
Mindset
"Fitness offers an invaluable opportunity to "fail" and keep moving forward. Leaning into the discomfort of growth opens the door to limitless potential. Never forget that getting even 1% better each day leads to massive improvement, and showing up for yourself is already a WIN."
