What makes us great…….

Our pilates program has been going strong for the past five years! We offer mat and Reformer machine classes for all ages and levels of ability. We also offer “Dancers Pilates”, a conditioning class specific to dancers needs. Our studio has a “Reformer Room” with 3 state-of-the-art Stott Reformer Machines. We have all the equipment necessary for a dynamic mat class: extra long foam mats, fitness circles, arc barrels for lumbar support, poles and 9-lb body bars, as well as 3 beautiful mirrored studios! Our instructors are all certified through extensive training programs, offering the best instruction in town.

Small Groups

All of our level 1 (Beginners) mat classes meet in small groups of up to 4 people in order to provide more individualized attention. Please call the studio to make an appointment with an instructor. Level 1 prices: 6 classes for $105 (tax is included).


Reformer By Appointment

Reformer classes are done by appointment only. Please call the studio for prices, or to schedule a lesson (available as a private lesson, or in groups of 2 or 3). Anyone interested in the Reformer is advised to take mat classes in order to develop a basic understanding of pilates body alignment, breathing, and coordination.

 

What is it?

A body conditioning program developed over 70 years ago by a man named Joseph Pilates. The focus is on deep muscle strength, specifically in the abdominals, joints, and back.

Within an hour-long class, over 20 exercises will be executed through fluid movements and deep breathing patterns, resulting in a full body workout.

Most exercises are done either seated or lying down, and are kind to the joints. Mat classes offer deep abdominal strength as well as weight-bearing work.

Reformer machine classes offer resistance training, and can make more work for the abdominals and extremities

Overall Benefits

Chronic back/joint pain relief, better posture, increased flexibility, increased abdominal and intrinsic muscle strength, muscle lengthening, and an overall leaner look

Who Should Do It?

Anyone looking for a balanced conditioning regimen. Any age, gender, physique can benefit from pilates. It can be used as a form of rehabilitation, as well as cross training in order to compliment other exercises. Even the most physically fit can benefit from pilates. Certified instructors are trained to modify the exercises in order to accomodate people with physical disabilities and special situations, such as arthritis, scoliosis, fibromayalgia, pregnancy, etc.
