Pilates FAQ
How many classes per week should I take?
To get the best results, attending 2-3 classes per week is recommended. Many students report that two times per week is when they really started to feel and see dramatic changes in their body. Once a week can be a good place to start and/or use Pilates as cross training for other forms of fitness.
What should I wear to class?
Wear comfortable clothes that you can move freely in, nothing restrictive. For safety and cleanliness, we require sticky socks be worn. You can bring your own or we do have some you can purchase.
If you need to wear shoes and/or orthotics because of a physical or medical issue please wear clean indoor athletic shoes only. We keep our studio floor and equipment clean and we do not want outside dirt or contaminants.
Do I need to make a reservation or can I just “drop in”?
A reservation is required for all our Reformer classes.
What group class should I start with as a beginner?
All levels are welcome to start with any of our classes.
If I am new to the studio do I need to do anything special for my first class?
Yes, please arrive at least 5-10 minutes early to your first class and make sure to introduce yourself to the instructor when you arrive.

If I have a special condition like Osteoporosis, Pregnancy, Scoliosis, or Back pain can I do Pilates
Yes, Pilates is often recommended for people with special conditions like osteoporosis, pregnancy, scoliosis or back pain however, it is important to speak to an instructor first to determine which classes are suitable for your condition. Specific modifications are required for each condition so we will likely recommend that you first start with private training sessions so we can go over the modifications required to keep you safe.
Our expert instructors are specifically trained to work with you and your individual needs to make a safe, effective and informed exercise program.
