Private classes are a great way to receive personalized attention, work toward specific goals, or get comfortable before joining group classes.

Reformer Pilates FAQs
Q: Do I need experience to try Reformer Pilates? A: Not at all. We offer beginner-friendly classes that guide you through the equipment and exercises.
Q: What is a Reformer machine? A: The Reformer is a Pilates apparatus that uses springs and pulleys to create resistance. It’s great for building core strength, flexibility, and total body control.
Q: Are grippy socks required? A: Yes. For hygiene and safety, grippy socks are required for all Reformer classes. We also sell them at the studio.
Q: Can I do Reformer Pilates if I have an injury? A: Many injuries can be safely accommodated. Please consult your physician first, and let the instructor know before class starts.
Mat Pilates FAQs
Q: How is Mat Pilates different from Reformer Pilates? A: Mat Pilates uses body weight and small props (like balls or bands), while Reformer Pilates uses a machine for added resistance and support.
Q: Is Mat Pilates effective without equipment? A: Absolutely! Mat Pilates builds strength, balance, and flexibility using your body’s own resistance.
Q: Can I take Mat Pilates if I’m pregnant? A: Yes, with modifications. We recommend speaking with your doctor first and joining our prenatal-friendly classes when available.
