Class Description

Privates

A private lesson is a one-on-one session with an instructor. The 50-55 minute lesson is the ideal way to learn pilates. Each body has many different needs based on goals, injuries, strengths or weaknesses. A private lesson will give your body a tailored program with the combination of mat work and apparatus work (equipment). Your program changes as needed. You may have heard the quote "in ten sessions you will feel better, in twenty sessions you will look better, and in 30 sessions you will have a whole new body." This quote, from Joseph Pilates, was based on doing the 30 sessions as privates, three times per week, for ten consecutive weeks and is widely used in the pilates world because it can be true. The important thing to remember is what it means. Most people cannot dedicate ten consecutive weeks and may not be able to afford what 30 private lessons cost in that amount of time. This is why it usually takes longer than ten weeks or 30 sessions to have a "whole new body". Privates lessons are prepaid and scheduled by appointment only.

Semi-Privates

A semi-private lesson is a session with up to three clients to one instructor. The 50-55 minute lesson is a great lower cost alternative to a private lesson. You should be healthy and okay on your own for a few minutes at a time. You are required to know your own program and must be semi-approved before going into this type of lesson. Although most of the time you will do your own program, the instructor may choose to keep everyone together for change of routine. New exercises may be taught, but generally are taught in private lessons. Also, if you only take semi-privates and/or mat classes regularly, it is important to take an occasional private lesson. This will monitor your progress, fine tune exercises, add new ones, or modify your program if needed. Semis are ideal for those that enjoy to work out in a group setting. Semis privates are prepaid and scheduled by appointment only.

Mat Class Series

The mat classes are held as a 4 week series. You will pay for the series of four, not each class. The content is an intermediate class but also taught to the majority of the class. These classes are for a healthy body that may need standard modifications for exercises. Just like a drop in class would be, the class will have up to 10 people and a minimum of 3 to start each series Mat Class Schedule Link
