Not Mat Pilates!

Not to be confused with the standard $10 mat class at your local gym, these classes are held with highly knowledgeable certified instructors on the top of the line equipment costing up to $8000 for 1 piece.

Pilates was designed and developed by Joseph on EQUIPMENT he designed, mat pilates was an afterthought as a cheaper alternative but is nowhere near as effective or specific. To compare the two is not realistic, the apparatus give the instructor endless variations and allows them to tailor any workout to the clients needs, limitations and goals!

Monon Walking

This class is only offered through the warmer months of the year. It is an hour and a half long, spending half of the class on the Monon trail while the other half is spent doing pilates on the springboard at the east location. The Monon trail will include speed walking, jogging, running, sprints, or sometimes even plyometric exercises. It will depend on the level of the students in this class to what goes on out on the Monon. This is a great option if you are looking to add some cardio and intensify your pilates workout!

It is intense as it is an hour and a half class. The summer days do get hot, so make sure you drink plenty of water before and after your class. Also make sure to wear the appropriate attire and shoes to be able to run on the trail. Hydration is important for all of our classes, but especially this one! And of course don't forget your sun block!

Springboard 

Springboard classes are a great option for people who love mat classes and also who love using the pilates apparatus. This class incorporates floor moves while using the resistance of springs to either assist you if you're a beginner and not very strong, or to challenge you if you have been doing pilates for awhile or are very strong. It is for those with an established exercise routine and those still trying to develop one. The springs provide a "closed chain connection" which allows you to better isolate muscle groups and to feel the deeper core connection than the classic mat exercises, but are based on the same principles. A lot of the exercises done on the reformer can be modified and changed around a little bit to work on the springboard. It is a great way to change up your pilates classes by trying springboard with us. With a limit of 4 or 5 people per class (depending on location) the springboard classes are small enough for individual attention and are far superior to a regular mat class.
