Private Sessions– Privates are the most versatile and worthwhile way to study Pilates at any level. Beginners find the one on one attention of privates essential to mastering the very precise movements found in the Pilates method. Private appointments are the fastest way to progress in Pilates. Our certified Pilates trainers work one-on-one with you on the studio’s full range of equipment, including the Reformer, Cadillac, chair and ladder barrel, etc. Your trainer always adjusts the intensity and dynamics of your workout to your appropriate level. Even if you plan to take group classes it is highly recommended that you start out with a few privates, and take refresher privates as you can.

Semi-Private Sessions– Semi-private sessions are shared private sessions. Your workout is independent of the other person sharing your same instructor. These sessions are an economical way to have a private session.

Duets– Duets are the next best thing to private instruction. As the name implies, two people are doing the same thing in a private session. Appointments for duets are arranged on your schedule and follow a private session format. Often friends make this kind of arrangement, but we may be able to set you up with a duet partner. It is best to do duets with someone close to your own level. Duets are usually seen as a shared private, and is an excellent way to defer the cost of a private session.

Trios– Trios consist of three people. You create your own trio of workout partners, and choose the time of your workout session.

Open Gym– “You are on your own in the spirit of the way Joe Pilates ran his studio.” This time frame is set-aside for those who can work out on their own.
