Custom Program
Okay, let’s get your Pilates “Me Time” booked!
All new students kick off their journey with our Custom Program, which includes an intro pack of 3 private sessions. Your first step is to pick the type of fantastic teacher you want to get cozy with:
The Expert Teacher: For the Body Detective
If you’re dealing with more serious injuries that require a bona fide body detective—someone who can work seamlessly within a “Continuous Circle of Care” (a fancy way of saying they chat with your physical therapist, chiropractor, or other body wizards)—then an Expert Teacher is your go-to. These maestros have extra-fancy certifications on top of their comprehensive Pilates training and generally have at least 25 years of experience. Think of them as the Pilates philosophers who’ve seen it all (and fixed it)!
The Graduate or Lead Teacher: For the Slightly “Wiggly”
If you’re relatively healthy but have a few body issues that make you go “Hmm…” and you’d like a little extra TLC as you start your Pilates adventure, a Graduate or Lead Teacher is a perfect fit. They’ve got their comprehensive certification, at least 3 years of teaching under their belt, and often have a specialization that might be exactly what you need—like pre/postnatal, 50-plus wisdom, the super-stiff, or the wonderfully hypermobile. They know their stuff and they’re ready to wrangle your wiggles!
The Teacher in Training: For the Savvy Saver
If you’re relatively fit or you’re looking for the most economical way to get personalized private sessions (we get it, budgets exist!), we suggest working with a Teacher in Training. They’ve completed a mountain of hours (between 500 and 1000!) in lab, observation, and coursework, and they’ve been cleared to work with the public. But don’t worry, they’re not flying solo—their sessions are overseen by an experienced teacher trainer. This is a brilliant and affordable avenue to start your private training journey.
Go ahead and take a peek at our faculty and Teachers in Training to select the guru you think you’re going to vibe with. Seriously, spend some time stalking their profiles! Don’t stress if the first session is just “meh”—you’re totally free to use your three intro sessions with any teacher within the level intro pack you picked.

Once your intro sessions are complete, if you choose to move forward (and you totally will!), you don’t have to commit to just one teacher! At our school, we encourage a nice Smorgasbord of teachers working with you. You have flexible options: you can either buy your privates in packs of 5 or 10, or you can commit to the long-term love affair with Pilates and save some serious dough by joining a private membership. Your body will thank you!
