Learn Pilates on the reformer, cadillac, chair and/or mat. It's therapeutic, it's a challenging workout, and a journey into a new way of moving. Our Pilates trainers work successfully with people with osteoporosis, back and neck pain, knee pain, spondylolisthesis and general muscle weakness.

The fastest and most effective way to learn Pilates and start getting results is to start with private sessions. If you have back pain, osteoporosis or other disorders, Pilates private sessions highly recommended over group classes. Your trainer will steer you clear of exercises that could exacerbate your condition, and focus on exercises to help you reduce pain and gain mobility.

Reformer Classes
We offer different types of reformer classes. Some require 20-40 private lessons to learn the exercises before joining the class. We also offer beginning reformer classes for people new to reformer. We offer beginning, intermediate and advanced level classes, open and closed groups.

Private sessions offer the best results and the quickest learning. Work with your own Pilates Trainer on the Reformer, Chair, Cadillac and Mat. After an initial evaluation to establish your goals, your trainer will begin working with you on your specific needs. You'll feel the difference after your first appointment. We recommend duets if privates are not in your budget. To get the most out of duets, we recommend you choose a partner close to your ability.

After 10 sessions you feel the difference.

After 20 sessions you see the difference.

After 30 sessions you have a new body.

The Classical Pilates Method is based on a full, integrated system of equipment - the Pilates Mat exercises are just one part of the entire Pilates technique. By adding equipment (reformers, cadillac and Pilates chair and barrel), you experience a more authentic, quality experience. The equipment works better and faster to change your body, as the springs on the equipment provide support and resistance, enhancing your core connection in a way that is difficult to do on the Mat alone. The equipment allows you to shape, tone, lengthen and align quite differently than the Mat. Additional advanced core work is available on equipment for the more accomplished practitioner. Last but not least, working on the equipment is fun!

Whether you take Mat classes alone or a combination of Pilates equipment and Mat, a mix of workout options is essential to getting the best results.

Reformer classes are not open to the public (you cannot drop in or "try it"). Closed reformer classes are by invitation only, based on proficiency level to match the level of the group. Open reformer classes require participants to have a minimum of 20 private sessions and recommendation from your trainer. Appropriate placement of students in classes assures you of the best possible reformer class experience. Let us know if you have prior reformer experience. We will direct you to the level right for you. Clients with injuries or special needs may not be able to take part in group reformer classes. Talk with your trainer.
