What is Mat Pilates?
Mat Pilates is a full-body workout system that focuses on building a strong core (the “powerhouse”) through a series of low-impact, high-intensity exercises. Using your own body weight and a mat, the class works to improve posture, build lean muscle, increase flexibility, and create a balanced body. It’s a mindful movement practice that links breath with precise, controlled movements.
Before Class: What Do I Need to Know
- You don’t need to sign up in advance, but it is recommended.
- Please bring a yoga or fitness mat. You may also rent or purchase one from the studio.
- Attire: Wear comfortable, form-fitting clothing that allows you to move freely. Grippy socks are highly recommended for stability on the mat, and some customers prefer to wear socks.
During Class: What to Expect
- Itinerary: The instructor will lead you through a series of classical and contemporary Pilates exercises. The focus will be on core engagement, proper alignment, and breath control.
