What, like it’s hard?

Service Description

Don’t underestimate Mat Pilates just because you’re on a mat and not a reformer. This foundational class, led by Erin — who has been teaching Mat Pilates for 13 years- is designed to challenge you just as much as the reformer. Expect the use of props and accessories to deepen the work, build strength, and keep class dynamic and engaging. Afterall- mat pilates is the TRUE foundation of Pilates, focusing on all the principles of classical pilates: core strength, stability, control, alignment, breath, and mind-body connection using only your body weight. Originally created by Joseph Pilates, mat classes build the strength and movement patterns that directly translate to Reformer Pilates and everyday movement. Without machine assistance, mat Pilates challenges the body in a completely different, and incredibly effective way. It’s not necessarily easier or harder than reformer Pilates, just different. And different is good. Be prepared to move, sweat, strengthen, and let this class challenge you so you feel confident and prepared for every other Pilates class that follows — including Hot Mat Pilates ($30) coming in July 2026 to the studio. P.S. Mats are provided — just bring your own towel, and don’t forget your grippy socks (required for class).
