FoamRollerDeepStretch-26.jpg

This class is not a Pilates class, but is a great class that we like to offer as a supplement to Pilates and other workouts for tight and sore people!

We teach you how to do a full body foam roller and then use props like tennis balls, dowels, and straps for self-massage and stretching. For the duration of class we stretch deep into your hips, hamstrings, calves, quads, pecs, shoulders, chest, and more. Also, we eat chocolate.

The class is offered every other week. We have different focuses in class like neck, shoulder, low back, and hip release.

Our Mixed Level Pilates Mat classes accommodate a variety of levels. Beginners without major injuries are allowed into this class, however, we recommend that everyone take at least one private lesson before coming to mat class if you are new to Pilates mat. We make sure everyone is getting a workout at a level that is appropriate for them. Typically this is an intermediate class with options to make things more or less advanced depending on your level. We use props like magic circles, dowels, weights, the wall, and straps to enhance the workout and keep it fun. 


PILATES CLASS THEME DETAILS:

We recommend that everyone take at least one private lesson to determine placement into mat class.

Classical Mat with Props:

This Classical Pilates mat targets the Powerhouse (abs, upper legs, hips, and bottom), using exercise weights and magic circles to access different muscles and deepen your core. Exercises will be broken down so that they will suit your body, for a workout to challenge your flexibility, strength, and control. Mats and exercise weights are provided.

Modifications will be made for injuries and various levels of ability so that everyone has a challenge within the same exercise.

Arms, Abs, Ass! Mat class:

Staying true to Classical Pilates, this class focuses on upper body strength, lots of core strength, and some booty building exercises! This class flows with a good rhythm, sometimes using props to help get the most benefits of Pilates. Get ready to sweat and burn! Mats and exercise weights are provided.

Modifications will be made for injuries and various levels of ability so that everyone has a challenge within the same exercise.

Reformer on the Mat:

The reformer is a quintessential piece of Pilates equipment. With four springs and a carriage that moves beneath you, you get a total body workout with spring resistance. See http://pilates-gratz.com/reformer.html for photos and a video of the reformer in action! Many of these exercises can be done on the mat for an extra challenge. This mat class will focus on reformer exercises. If you'd like to work on the real reformer, private sessions are available. Come see what it's all about!

Mat on the Wall:

This is a classical class using the wall as your prop! The wall supports you and gives you great feedback for some exercises, and further challenges you in others! This class is a great way to learn how to make use of your mat workout at home, and when traveling. A perfect compliment to your vacation, this mat class would be ideal in a hotel room!

Magic Circle Special:

Learn the real in-depth benefits of the Magic Circle..the original "thigh-master" invented by Joseph Pilates...this amazing tool can be used in the entire mat class to strengthen arms, inner thighs, outer thighs, bottom, upper back, and more to get the most out of your Pilates workout!

Modifications will be made for injuries and various levels of ability so that everyone has a challenge within the same exercise.

Beginner Mat Classes

Our monthly library classes are a great place for beginners to get a feel for Pilates!

The Beginner Mat class is designed for clients to learn the fundamentals of the Pilates Mat sequence. We will break down various exercises and help you get a strong foundation for mat, equipment, and at-home workouts. We'll target your core, arms, legs, and bottom. Experienced Pilates students are also welcome, for those who want to slow down and get back to the basics of Pilates in order to strengthen their practice!
