Pilates Brunch Club Book Club is a space for women to slow down, connect, and grow together through meaningful conversation. Each gathering is centered around a thoughtfully selected book by a female author, paired with a curated, intimate experience that blends reflection, community, and a shared meal.

We created this book club to go deeper than surface-level connection. It is a place to explore personal growth, hear different perspectives, and feel seen in a room of women who are also doing the work. Every detail is intentional, from the setting to the conversation prompts, so that each woman leaves feeling both grounded and inspired.

At its core, this exists to bring women together in a way that feels real. A portion of every gathering supports survivors of domestic violence, allowing each event to not only impact those in the room, but also women who need it most. It is connection with purpose, and growth that extends beyond the table.

"I had such a fun time at Pilates Brunch Club’s Summer Book Club and loved both of the events I went to. We read The Let Them Theory and It Ends With Us, and I loved how each event was themed with so many cute, thoughtful details that tied everything together. From the beautiful curated drinks and dinner to the trivia and prizes, everything felt so special and well planned. It was also so nice getting to talk with people and meet new friends in such a fun, positive atmosphere. Victoria puts so much heart and effort into creating these events, and it really shows. I also love that proceeds are donated to Haven, a local women’s shelter. I seriously cannot wait for the next one!"

"Last season I attended all three book club events hosted by Victoria at The Matriarch at Hotel Bayit, and each one was thoughtfully curated around the book’s theme. The details were intentional, the food was always fresh, healthy, and delicious, and the overall atmosphere felt welcoming and inspiring.
Each book selection encouraged meaningful conversation, supported by thought-provoking questions and fun, themed activities with prizes. The group itself brought a variety of perspectives that made the discussions even richer.
Overall, the PBC book club was absolutely worth it—it left me excited to keep reading and genuinely looking forward to next season."

"I loved being part of the book club. Not only did we read empowering works, but the discussion that Victoria lead was always dynamic and inspiring. The entire event from the decor, amazing food, fun swag, and real talk that transpired, was one of my favorite evenings last summer and I cannot wait for this year’s book season to be announced."

"I can’t say enough great things about Victoria’s Pilates Brunch Club book club. Every detail felt intentional, elevated, and thoughtfully curated. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the food was incredible, and each book came to life through meaningful themes and conversations."

The season ended with a beautiful sound bath, and what made it even more special was the purpose—raising funds to support survivors of domestic abuse.

More than a book club, it was a truly special experience rooted in connection, intention, and giving back. I’m so grateful to have been part of it."
