YES! Of course! We love that first class experience! Make sure you get to the studio 10 minutes early so we can get you introduced to the equipment you will be using that day!

Fundamentals is a great place to start if you’ve never done Pilates before. Or if your only experience with Pilates is more of a Lagree style or HIIT class on a reformer. Real Pilates equipment take a bit to get comfortable with so this can help you become more comfortable.
We require 5 Fundamentals before you take a Mixed Level class. This is mostly because the Mixed level moves at a slightly faster pace and we want you comfortable with the equipment.

Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. We do not require socks, but if you decide to wear them, please be sure they are grip socks. We sell a few different brands. Do not wear lotions as they can cause you to slip on the equipment. Please wait to apply any scented perfumes/colognes until after class is over.

Flexibility is definitely not a requirement. Flexibility is a by product of Pilates. Not because we spend a ton of time stretching but because we are moving through large ranges of motion.

Pilates can be great movement for an injury. If you’ve never done Pilates before and you are experiencing chronic pain or a recent injury I would suggest doing our Private Intro Package to have someone keep an eye on your movements and help you understand your modifications. After that you can definitely jump into a Fundamentals Class. Let our front desk and teacher know so we can put it in your notes so all the teachers can be made aware and adjust exercises for you. Make sure you have been cleared for exercise by a medical professional.

Yes! Pilates is great pre and post natal. Just let your instructor know so we can add it to your profile so other teachers are aware. We may go over some modifications with you before class if you are later in your pregnancy. If you’re not wanting anyone to know that you are pregnant you can always send an email to let us know!

Let us know at least 12 hours in advance if you can't make it to class. Cancellations within that timeframe will only result in the loss of your class.
No-shows? Not cool. There's a $20 fee for those, and you'll also lose your class.
Privates
These require a 24 hour notice of cancellation. Be sure to let our front desk staff know of the cancellation, as our teachers do not handle bookings. This gives us ample time to open up the session for other clients who are waiting for an available session with that instructor.
