GENERAL PILATES

Our General Pilates (formerly Gentle Pilates) are led by highly experienced teacher Emily Altneu. Strengthen, stretch, and rebalance your body in a friendly, supportive environment. Whether you're new to Pilates or have years of experience, this class is designed to meet you where you are. The sessions offer personalized attention to help you build core strength, improve posture, and increase flexibility.

Perfect for all levels — including postnatal women — these classes are tailored to support your unique needs and goals. The small class size allows for a personal touch and a strong sense of community, so you’ll always feel seen, supported, and encouraged. With a focus on mindful movement and proper technique, you'll leave each class feeling stronger, more centered, and refreshed.
