Where to start

You do not need to know which class you want. You need to know which one is on the calendar.

Every class below runs on the same weekly schedule and the same session passes. Most are beginner to intermediate, so if a time works for you, the class will too. Amanda shows a modification for every exercise, in every class, every time.

If you are brand new to Pilates equipment, start with Pilates Tower classes in Sunbury or the Restorative Reformer class. If you have some experience and want the fullest workout, look at Reformer classes in Sunbury or the Reformer & Tower combination.

The studio is in Sunbury, minutes from New Albany and Westerville and an easy drive from anywhere in the Columbus area.

    Beginner to intermediate

    Reformer

    Your classical Reformer class with a few modern twists. The Reformer is the most popular piece of Pilates equipment. It looks like a leg press, but springs give the resistance and the configurations are endless. Exercises happen lying down, sitting, standing, pulling straps, pushing the foot bar or in a plank.

    • Very versatile
    • Deconditioned to athletic
    • Trains the whole body
    • Adapts around a knee, back or neck problem

    Beginner to intermediate

    Pilates Tower

    • Stable surface
    • Strength-focused
    • Muscular endurance
    • Easiest place to start

    Restorative Reformer

    A Reformer class designed to restore flexibility, balance, spinal alignment, strength and proper posture. It is a little slower paced than the traditional Reformer class, a great one at the end of a long week, and the right place to start if you are brand new or coming back from an injury.

    • Gentle mobility
    • Supportive strengthening
    • Breath-driven movement
    • Postural alignment
