PILATES
Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness. Our interpretation of physical fitness is the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily, and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.- Joseph Pilates

Tower Class
Tower classes combine the resistance of the springs and bars of the tower with the precise movement of the mat work to create a fluid, intelligent workout. With a maximum of 5 students per class, a tower class is an economical way to experience pilates on the equipment in an energizing group setting.
Semi-Private Pilates Session
Semi-Private sessions offer the same individualized training as our private sessions, but in a small group setting of 3-4 students. Semi-Private sessions are the most economical way to experience a full PIlates Apparatus experience. Clients must complete a minimum of 3 Private Sessions before entering a Semi-Private Session.
Private Pilates Session
Private Sessions are an ideal way to begin a Pilates Path with a focus on your individual needs and goals. A minimum of 2 private sessions are required before a student can join a semi-private session. Private sessions are also ideal for students with special needs, students recovering from injuries, or students in pursuit of advanced athletic training.
