Pilates and Barre Class Descriptions



Pilates Equipment Classes

Experience the full repertoire of Pilates Equipment – the Pilates reformer, tower, and Wunda Chair in an accessible environment. Our equipment classes are sorted by level of experience with the system of Pilates. We recommend newcomers to the equipment take a private lesson with one of our full certified Pilates instructors or join one of our Pilates 101 class series to get the best foundation of the Pilates Principles. The Pilates Equipment classes provide an excellent resistance workout. Expect a fun, core-centered class that will tone, lengthen, and improve your range of motion.

Recommended classes: Beginner Pilates Equipment, Intermediate Pilates Equipment, All Levels Pilates Equipment.

Pilates Mat Classes

Work your legs, stomach, and back from the Pilates mat. Through a series of floor exercises and props the Pilates mat workout will build and sculpt as well as stretch the body. Additional benefits of the Pilates mat work are improved posture and spinal health. Our Pilates mat classes are sorted by level of experience with the system of Pilates. We recommend attending a beginner class or scheduling a private lesson to learn the terminology and technique cues.

Recommended classes: All Levels or Int/Advanced Mat Pilates, Pilates Mat Fusion

Pilates Cardio Classes

These classes bridge the Pilates equipment repertoire with a cardio workout. Depending on the class, you'll use either the jump board attachment on the Pilates reformer or a rebounder (mini-trampoline) to raise your heart rate as well as tone the legs! Some classes use a circuit of stations and intervals to keep the blood pumping and the pace high.

Recommended classes: Cardio Pilates, Pilates Rebound

Barre Classes

Barre is a low-impact, barefoot class that brings elements of Pilates, Yoga, and Ballet resistance training into one workout. Regular attendance adds strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility to your entire body. Expect to use props like light dumbbells, bands, Pilates rings, and more.
