Other Frequently Asked Questions
to help you get started:
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothing. You do not need shoes during your session.
• Women: Spandex shorts, capris, or pants, fitted t-shirts, and workout tank tops
• Men: T-Shirts, workout shorts (long or short - some choose to wear bike shorts underneath), or comfortable pants
*Instructors look for abdominal initiation as well as hand and ankle placement. It's helpful when you wear close-fitting clothing that does not have long sleeves or long pants covering wrists and ankles.
How many times a week should I schedule a
Pilates or GYROTONIC® session?
The key to success in any exercise program is commitment. We recommend 2 to 3 times a week when you are first starting out. All new clients are required to initially take private sessions. We offer an Introductory Package of 5 private sessions for $235.
How soon will I see results?
Every ‘body' is unique. According to Joseph Pilates, "In 10 sessions, you'll feel a difference, in 20 sessions, you'll see the difference, and in 30 sessions you'll have a different body. Real and lasting changes will happen over time, but more importantly, you'll leave every session or class feeling rejuvenated and energized.
What if I'm out of shape?
Not to worry. Pilates and GYROTONIC® are for everyone. Our instructors will design a workout specifically suited to your fitness level and experience. Pilates and GYROTONIC® are challenging and requires commitment, but you will start to feel better after your very first session.
What's the difference between working out in the studio vs. working out at home using videos?
In the studio, you receive personalized instruction and immediate feedback so that you experience better results. Our instructors teach you correct and safe body placement for each exercise. Understanding this placement can be difficult when you're watching TV and doing the exercise at the same time.
I've taken Pilates sessions from other studios before. Do I still need
to take a Private Session to start?
It depends on how you would like to begin. To best assess where to place you, discuss your fitness level, goals and previous Pilates experience with our certified instructors. If you are interested in entering a Mat Class, check our Current Class Schedule and sign-up on our website, under "Schedule".
