New to Pilates or outside that range? You're welcome here. If you value small classes and personalized attention, you'll fit right in.
New to Pilates or our studio
To get the most out of your Pilates practice, new students are encouraged to begin with at least two Private Sessions or three Pilates Foundations classes. These introductory sessions focus on proper form, alignment, and technique, while also teaching you how to use the Pilates equipment safely and confidently—giving you a strong foundation to move effectively and get the most from every workout.
Private Sessions
Private sessions offer a fully personalized Pilates experience designed around your body, goals and movement history. In a one-on-one setting, you’ll learn the foundational principles of Pilates—proper alignment, breath, control, and efficient movement—while being safely guided through all of the studio apparatus, including the Reformer, Cadillac, Chair, and Barrels.
Whether you’re new to Pilates, returning after time away, or working around an injury, private sessions provide the focused attention and thoughtful progression needed for lasting results.
Pilates Foundations
The Pilates Foundations class is for anyone who is new to Pilates or wants to move at a slower pace through the beginner exercises with a focus on the fundamentals including detailed explanations on proper body positioning. It may be appropriate for those with injuries, those who are new to this type of movement or those who want to gain a deeper connection to the basic principles of Pilates. See the class schedule for current offerings.
*To support your safety and progress, instructors may recommend private sessions if additional individualized instruction is needed before continuing with group classes.
