What type of equipment do you have?

My studio is fully equipped with both classical and contemporary Pilates apparatus, as well as additional tools for strengthening, balancing, and improving flexibility. I have the following pieces of equipment:

1. Reformer: The heart of the Pilates method, the reformer uses a gliding carriage, adjustable springs, and a footbar to provide resistance and support. Great for core strength, alignment, posture, and full-body toning—with low impact on joints.

2. Ladder Barrel: This elegant curved apparatus helps stretch, strengthen, and challenge your spine and core through supported backbends, side bends, and flexibility work. Ideal for posture work, spinal mobility, and opening tight hips and shoulders.

3. Springboard: A wall-mounted system with springs and handles that adds dynamic resistance to standing, seated, and mat-based movements. Perfect for upper-body strength, balance, and full-body coordination.

4. Exo Chair: A compact yet powerful tool that challenges strength, stability, and balance through pushing, stepping, and seated exercises. Great for improving lower-body strength, core control, and functional movement—especially for mature clients

5. Additional Tools for Strength & Flexibility

   • Resistance bands, weights, balls, and loops to build strength and coordination

   • Foam rollers and mobility tools for stretching, alignment, and recovery

   • Balance pads and props to support joint safety and improve stability
     
     

How many people can you train at once?

My studio is a dedicated one-to-one training space, where your session is truly your own. No crowds, no distractions—just focused, personalized attention in a quiet, comfortable environment.

I work with one client at a time, which allows me to tailor every movement, adjustment, and piece of equipment to your individual needs and goals.

Whether you're new to Pilates, returning to movement, or looking for deeper, more mindful training, this setting offers:

• A calm, non-intimidating environment

• Total privacy and comfort

• Hands-on guidance and support

• Sessions paced to your body and ability

You’ll never feel rushed or overlooked. Every session is designed with care, so you feel safe, seen, and supported every step of the way.

What is your teaching specialty?

With over 20 years of experience working one-on-one with individuals, I specialize in helping mature, deconditioned women regain strength, mobility, and confidence—no matter where they’re starting from.

I’ve worked with clients facing:

• Chronic knee, hip, or low back pain

• Injury recovery and limited mobility

• Menopause-related changes (fatigue, weight gain, joint stiffness)

• Obesity and overweight, or long gaps in physical activity

• Emotional disconnection from movement or fear of re-injury
  

Each private session is thoughtfully designed to meet you exactly where you are. I combine my expertise in Pilates, strength training, and health & wellness coaching to create a supportive space where real progress happens—step by step, at your pace.

Clients often tell me they feel:

• Stronger and more capable in daily life

• More confident in their bodies and movement

• Free from pain and tension

• Motivated and hopeful after years of feeling stuck
  

This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s a customized, compassionate method focused on lasting results and whole-body wellness.

You don’t have to be fit, flexible, or perfect to begin.
You just need to be ready to take the first step—and I’ll guide you from there.

What is the difference between Pilates & Yoga?

While Pilates and yoga both focus on mindful movement, breath, and body awareness, they are two distinct practices with different goals, methods, and benefits.

• Pilates is a low-impact exercise method designed to strengthen your core, improve alignment, and build functional strength through controlled, precise movements.

• Founded by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century
  
  

• Focuses on core strength, posture, balance, and joint stability
  
  

• Uses specialized equipment like the Reformer, Chair, and Barrel
  
  

• Emphasizes small, intentional movements to build control and strength
  
  

• Great for rehabilitation, injury prevention, and safe movement for all levels
  
  

👉 Pilates is often described as movement therapy—it helps restore your body’s natural alignment, support recovery, and build strength from the inside out.

Yoga is a centuries-old mind-body-spirit practice rooted in ancient Indian philosophy, often combining physical postures, breathwork, and meditation.

• Emphasizes flexibility, balance, and inner awareness
  
  

• Often includes spiritual or mindfulness elements
  
  

• Typically performed on a mat (no machines)
  
  

• Can vary from gentle stretching to dynamic, sweat-inducing flows
  
  

• Encourages mindfulness and relaxation through breath and movement
  
  

👉 Yoga is ideal for increasing flexibility, reducing stress, and connecting breath with movement in a more meditative way.

Both are powerful practices—but if you're looking to rebuild strength, improve posture, and move safely with chronic pain, injury, or menopause-related changes, Pilates may be the more targeted approach for you.

How long will it take to see results?

Everybody is different, but with consistent practice, most clients begin to feel the benefits of Pilates within just a few weeks.

You may notice:

• Improved posture and body awareness in 3–5 sessions
  
  

• Increased core strength and flexibility within 6–10 sessions
  
  

• Reduced pain or stiffness, especially in the back, hips, or knees
  
  

• Greater energy, mobility, and confidence as your practice builds

The Pilates Promise

As Joseph Pilates famously said:

“In 10 sessions, you’ll feel the difference. In 20 sessions, you’ll see the difference. In 30 sessions, you’ll have a whole new body.”

What helps you see results?

• Consistency – Practicing 2–3 times per week (even short sessions) is ideal

• Private instruction – One-on-one sessions help you progress faster and avoid bad habits

• A customized approach – Your body, your pace—no pressure, just progress
