Pilates FAQs
-
All of our Reformer Pilates classes are open to all levels, but we do recommend having some prior experience on the Reformer before joining a group class. A private session is a great way to build confidence and familiarity, and we’d be happy to schedule one with you!

Mat Pilates is done on the floor using your body weight for resistance, often incorporating props like weights, bands, balls, and blocks to enhance the workout. Reformer Pilates uses a spring-based machine (the Reformer) to provide adjustable resistance and support, allowing for a wider range of exercises and intensity levels. Other props can be incorporated into Reformer classes as well.
-
Hot Pilates is a 45-minute heated mat class (95–99 degrees) that combines core-focused Pilates movements with the benefits of heat for flexibility, endurance, and sweat.

Reformer Jump is an intermediate-to-advanced option combining low-impact cardio and Pilates strength on the jump board. It’s great for clients looking to elevate their practice.

While we welcome walk-ins for Mat Pilates and Hot Pilates, we encourage you to sign up in advance to secure your spot and help our instructors plan accordingly. Advance sign-up is required for Reformer classes, as we only have 5 Reformers and want to ensure there's space for you. That said, if you're already here and there's an open spot—feel free to jump in!
