Frequently Asked Questions

---

We suggest clients new to our studio begin with the Introductory Pilates Package of 3 private sessions.  Your first three private sessions allows you to exercise at your own pace and gain experience using the Pilates equipment.  Plus, you'll get a better idea of the number of sessions per week you'd like to attend and whether you like private sessions or group classes. 

Joining with a friend?  Two persons can start Pilates together immediately without buying the Introductory Package, or both persons can start with the Introductory Package. 

Note: Beginners will need to complete at least 1 private session first and have approval before joining group classes..

To experience the best results we suggest taking 2 to 3 Pilates sessions per week.  Any combination of private sessions and group classes are encouraged. 

All sessions and classes are 50 minutes.

Absolutely. In fact most new clients begin Pilates because they have injuries, are recovering from back pain or an illness, are sedentary and out of shape.  The best thing about our Pilates programs, is we are able to modify Pilates for each client.  Our private and small group classes are ideal for persons who are out of shape and anyone who needs rehabilitative Pilates. 

Yes, we have a lot of clients with low bone density (osteopenia, and osteoporosis) and they are successfully building bone every 2 years after they retake their bone density tests and their scores improve! Your Pilates program has to be very specifically modified so that you avoid many of the very common Pilates exercises that include flexion, side bending movement that can cause risk of fractures.  We will have you start with a few private sessions first to show you the right way to do Pilates with osteoporosis.
