If you have never tried Pilates with us, you may wish to try out our Initiation Package, which consists of two private sessions and one group mat class. We strongly recommend it for those with any health condition that needs special attention. During the private classes you will learn the fundamental basic principles and moves of the method. We will also discuss your personal needs and objectives after a brief assessment of your posture and movement patterns. The goal is to introduce you and your body to both the mat and apparatus exercises, the vocabulary we use at Respirit Pilates and to offer you exercise modifications should you need any, so that you get the most out of your group classes afterwards. Even if you have taken Pilates classes elsewhere before, it is a valuable experience to re-examine your strengths and set new goals for your practice in the group setting.
