So much. Whether you train with me in the studio or online, the goal is the same: to help you build total body strength, improve your posture, and develop a deeper connection to how your body moves.
In private and semi-private Reformer sessions, we focus on controlled strength, stability, and alignment. You’ll strengthen your deep stabilizing muscles like your core and glutes, while also building power in your larger muscle groups. Each session is structured with intention, so you’re progressing safely and effectively.
If you’re training online, you’ll still experience anatomically informed programming designed to support mobility, balance, and long-term strength.
You’ll also improve flexibility through focused mobility work for the spine, shoulders, and hips — not just stretching, but intelligent movement that supports your daily life.
Most importantly, you’ll feel the difference. Stronger. More aligned. More confident in your body.
Pilates here is not about exhausting yourself. It’s about moving better, feeling capable, and building strength that carries into everything you do.
Try a session and experience it for yourself.

Here’s the deal. Pilates is a low-impact workout, which means you can do it intentionally and consistently without putting excessive stress on your body. Now does that mean you should do Pilates every single day? I would love for you to, but I get it. Time, access, schedule. It’s real life.
So how many days a week should you do Pilates?
Ideally, you’re looking at two to four times a week. That’s where you start to see real strength, posture, and core stability changes. This can be a mix of in-studio reformer sessions and at-home mat practice, which is why having both options available makes it sustainable long term.

Joseph Pilates created Pilates, a method of exercise that combines physical and mental training. And he didn’t call it Pilates, he actually called it Contrology but that’s a whole other story. And he brought it to the US in the 20s. He left us in the 70s. But he was just a brilliant kind of crazy man.

Pilates is appropriate for people of any age or fitness level. Pilates' unique approach to fitness allows any level, from a beginner to an athlete, to set their goals and work on their individual needs.

No! It was created by Joseph Pilates, a man for men. Because, guess what you guys? Back in the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s they did not think women should be working out. That’s a whole other thing. Trust me, it makes me roll my eyes too. So here’s the deal. Pilates is for everybody.
