You can come as often as you like, and to any of our conveniently scheduled classes (even more coming this fall!).

All of our instructors have extensive and specialized training, which means classes are carefully planned and carried, but you can always come to a class with a special request that will be met. Our groups are small to ensure lots of personal attention and a more intimate setting.

What our clients are saying...

"I just wanted to write and tell you how thankful I was that I went to prenatal Pilate's and yoga on a regular basis during my pregnancy.

My baby was sunny side up which caused some difficulties especially during transition. I had to be very active during labor and the midwife had me changing positions very often in an attempt to get the baby to turn. I was stuck at 8cm for 2 hours and the midwife had to manually complete my dilation in the end. The baby also "got stuck" while pushing and multiple positions had to be used to allow him to be born. His heart rate kept dropping and they were threatening to take me upstairs for a c section, they even brought a gurnie to my room. In the end I was was able to deliver him naturally.

I know that I would have ended up with a c section if I was not in good physical shape. I used every muscle in my body during the labor and I was so happy for all the squats and core work that we did in class. Also the exercises on holding painful positions for a minute were extremely helpful to me mentally. Every time I had a contraction, I kept thinking about how in class I was able to hold the position longer than I thought possible and that it would eventually end.

Please tell the girls in your class to keep it up even when they are tired or don't feel well. They will be thankful in the end. Also, my stomach went down in size dramatically faster than many women I have seen. I still have some weight and inches to loose, but I know the core exercises helped with that. I can't wait to be able to work out again to finish off the rest." - Ashlie Y
