Think of classes as small group personal training. Working in small groups allows the teacher to provide the individual attention and praise necessary to do mind-body exercises correctly while having time to guide the class through the day’s workout with a fluid pace.
Pilates Mat Class
GYROKINESIS® Class
GYROKINESIS® is the floor and stool version of GYROTONIC®. The class uses a sturdy stool and a floor mat. Traditionally there is a short format and long format but I enjoy giving you a different creative class each time. more recent and copletely different discipline than Pilates. GYROKINESIS® exercises are particularly amazing at exercising the spine and allowing it to stretch and strengthen in a very safe way. GYROKINESIS® is an intense but playful workout that will offer great strength while making you feel flexible, elongated and invigorated!Franklin Method® Class
Pilates Reformer
In this class we use a classical Pilates machine called the Reformer. Its identifying characteristic is the moving “carriage.” The carriage is a moving platform within the equipment’s frame. It creates a truly uncommon exercise experience: a moving floor. Don’t let that scare you. The most common comment we hear is how the movement of the carriage is calming and an ironic contrast to the fact that you’re sweating! This is an amazing piece of equipment that teaches excellent control and stability.
Pilates Wall Tower
In this class we use a machine called the Wall Tower. The Wall Tower’s design allows you to work each side of your body independently, rather than your weak side relying on your strong side. Because you are working on the floor we incorporate the Pilates mat-work and other props such as the stability ball, magic circle, foam rollers, and BOSU, just to name a few. With all of these props to play with the Wall Tower classes are playful, diverse, great at correcting muscle imbalances, and a fantastic workout!
Pilates Reformer/Tower Combo
This class uses a combination of the Reformer and the Wall Tower. This class is the best of both worlds, combining the stabilizing benefits of the Reformer with the imbalance correcting benefits of the Wall Tower. Our clients rave about the combo classes stating that incorporating the different equipment in the same class keeps their workout fresh and challenging. The combination class is a great way to enhance your Pilates workout and is a perfect choice for anyone who can only attend once per week.
