Help! I've never done Pilates before... how do I start?
Welcome! When I first tried Pilates, I felt muscles I never knew existed and relieved back pain I had been dealing with for many years. I'm excited for you to give it a try!
​
The best option would be a Private Session to get a fully personalized experience, but since our class sizes are so small, you can join one of our Reformer Classes if you prefer. Just let the instructor know it's your first time!
​
Take a look at the questions below like "What should I wear?", and then you are ready for your first Pilates session!
How many people will be in my reformer class?
We only have 4 spots in our classes.
We believe that Pilates is most effective with focused, individualized attention, so we limit our class size to make sure we can best support you in your Pilates journey.
Do you have other Pilates equipment?
Yes! For our private sessions, we include the Ped-a-Pull and Ladder Barrel. We will also be adding more equipment soon!
​
We also use a variety of accessories in all of our sessions, including the Magic Circle, ankle/wrist weights, and resistance bands.
What should I wear?
Leggings and a form-fitting top are best for our instructors to give the most helpful feedback, but you should wear what you are most comfortable exercising in.
​
We also require grip socks for safety and hygiene.
Why do you require grip socks?
Grip socks are required to keep everyone safe!
-
The grip helps keep you in place on the equipment (normal socks are slippery)
-
The socks help keep the equipment clean. We always wipe down all used equipment after every session, but some parts of the equipment are a fabric material, which can't be cleaned as effectively between sessions.
How do I get to the studio?
If you navigate to our address, you'll get to a parking lot for The Healing Touch Chiropractic. You are in the right place!
​
You can park in that parking lot and then when you enter the front door, once you can't keep walking forward, go left.
Then, you'll go up the stairs that will be on your left. You made it!
