WHAT TO EXPECT:

Authentic Pilates Pedagogy

Befriend Your Body

Pilates School classes are inclusive of all bodies and fitness levels. Using a movement system of well-engineered exercises developed by Joseph Pilates, you will learn how to relieve tension, map your body, improve your posture, heal and prevent future injuries, and enhance your athletic performance.

Enrich Your Mind

At its core, the Pilates method is about finding a balance of power between your body, mind, and spirit. To cultivate this trinity, the Pilates Method system practices mindfulness techniques designed to harness the mind’s influence to support the body's evolving needs.

Uplift Your Spirit

Pilates School students know that consistent time spent on the mat pays off in rewards—from more energy to physical confidence to enhanced mood and new perspective on your life off the mat.

What Students Are Saying

“I have attended Pilates classes with a number of teachers, but have never gotten the results from them that I have come to expect from my classes with Greta. At the end of a session with her, I feel energized and buoyant rather than exhausted or sore like I do from more typical gym exercises.”

— R. Regos

“Besides being an extremely attentive teacher, Greta has the gift of being able to communicate how a movement should feel from the inside. She is a master of visualization and analogies! I jokingly refer to Greta as a Pilates geek. Her passion will get you hooked on Pilates as a way of life.”

— S. Hing

“Greta has helped me completely change my relationship with my body. Working with her has helped me gain awareness of my physical being. She is a genius at understanding what is going on with your body, knowing how to address it, and supporting you in reaching your goals.”

— C. Baker
