Hollywood's 30 Best Beauty Secrets

Pilates Professionals 14) WHO: Kim LeeTITLE: Pilates Pioneer
WHAT: Perhaps the person most responsible for Hollywood current Pilates craze (which is done on a "reformer" machine and is based on the exercise method invented by Joseph Pilates in the early 1900s), Lee has been working with bold-faced names for the past 32 years.
CELEBRITY CLIENTELE: Madonna, Denise Richards, Debi Mazar, Janet Jackson
CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT: He's got Madonna's respect: She trains with him religiously and calls him "Mr. Lee."
SECRET WEAPON: "I give clients what they want -- if they tell me they want thinner thighs or a flatter tummy, I will tailor the work around that," Lee says. "Everyone tries to do that but it's my years of experience that make me able to."
BUT CAN YOU GET IN? No, but Lee works out of the stunning Roxbury Pilates Spa facility, which has plenty of other trainers and classes.

15) WHO: Mari Winsor

TITLE: Pilates Princess
WHAT: An effervescent infomercial queen, Winsor not only manages three Pilates studios (which employ 30 trainers altogether) but she's also written four books on the topic.
CELEBRITY CLIENTELE: Vanessa Williams, Brandy, Minnie Driver, Melanie Griffith, Elizabeth Berkeley, Jamie Lee Curtis, Courtney Thorne-Smith, Samuel L. Jackson, Daisy Fuentes
CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT: "Melanie [Griffith] has told me that I've changed her life," Winsor reveals.
SECRET WEAPON: After a debilitating motorcycle accident 10 years ago, Winsor healed herself quickly using Pilates. "I understand muscles because I have good knowledge of injuries," she says, then adds diplomatically, "Plus, I know how to handle difficult people."
BUT CAN YOU GET IN? She works with new clients once, then refers them to one of her trainers (her decade-long client list prevents her from really taking on anyone new). And hey, you can always order one of her best-selling videos.
