Private Pilates Sessions
A private Pilates session is the ideal way to start Pilates. The session is tailored to your individual needs (health limitations, dancer/sport performance, injury rehabilitation, stress management) and results can be seen rapidly from the personal attention to detail.

In this Duet session, two clients work together on the equipment (Reformer, Tower, and Chair classes are all available as a semi-private). The session is also tailored to benefit both of the clients’ specific goals, but allows each client to take a more personal responsibility of their own workout and share the experience and cost with a friend or partner.
