Group Classes
Group classes at Seed are intentionally kept very small with 3 students for Reformer/Equipment based classes and 6 students for Mat based classes. This allows for a choose-your-own-adventure style of class in which each student may pick the variation of the exercise that best suits them while still allowing the instructor to provide individual guidance and support within the group class experience.
While all classes are open-level, it's highly recommended students have some prior experience with the Reformer and knowledge of how to adjust the equipment's various components before joining a Reformer/Equipment class. No experience required for Mat Classes.
​
New students will need to fill out all paperwork BEFORE their first class
​
NOTICE: Please be aware that this is a one person operation. As a result, I am only capable of offering a limited number of group classes each week. Additionally, while I try to maintain consistency to the schedule, classes may need to be canceled from time to time due to illness or other personal commitments. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.

What do you mean by "integrated" Pilates"Integrated" Pilates refers to that while I teach classic exercises recognizable as Pilates and utilize a variety of Pilates equipments, I don't just teach Pilates. My movement background is varied as is my training (dance, contemporary Pilates, Fascial Movement Training, Franklin Method, and more) and I continue to evolve my teaching skills and techniques as I learn more. I then "integrate" all of this information into what looks a lot like a Pilates practice.
-
What if I have acute or chronic/persistent injuries or conditions that might impact my participationPilates is very adaptable for a variety of injuries and conditions, however, some may not be recommended for group class participation as they may interfere with your or the other students ability to get the most out of class. Depending on the injury or condition, you might need is one or more Private sessions to determine and learn any modifications that might be helpful for you to participate in group class. Please contact me to discuss this further.

Can I practice Pilates if I am or become pregnantPilates can be a great way to continue to move and exercise while pregnant - it can help the body to better handle the changes that occur in your body while also helping to prepare the body for giving birth as well as aiding recovery and for the new demands that will be placed on your body afterward (Post-Natal). During the first trimester, it is generally safe to continue attending group classes, however, once you enter the second trimester and into the third, there are some precautionary modifications that should be taken. As a result, it is not recommended you attend the group classes and instead opt for Private (or even Semi Private) sessions instead. At this time, Seed does not offer and Pre-Natal specific group classes. If you have a group interested, please contact me to see if we can schedule one for your specific group. Any form of exercise, including Pilates, while pregnant should be with doctor consent.

What is PilatesDeveloped by Joseph Pilates (1880–1967) in the late 19th Century-early 20th Century and originally called "Contrology", Pilates is a system of mind-body exercise designed to optimize physical fitness in people at every level of physical ability. Born of parents who were a gymnast and Naturopath, respectively, Joseph's interest in fitness began as a way to help himself overcome his own ailments. He then honed his skills during WWI, helping prisoners of war regain strength and mobility. This is when he began the designing of a variety of Pilates apparatus (or equipment) still used today; most recognizable is the Reformer which utilizes a gliding carriage, pulley system and spring resistance. Later, in New York, Joseph continued his teaching and became popular with the professional dance community. Many of his disciples continued on the tradition of his teachings, training a new generation of instructors - some of whom have created contemporary Pilates training programs of their own which incorporate new modern science into the original exercises. Pilates can help people of all genders, ages and physical abilities to address strength, flexibility, endurance and posture with low impact, mindful exercises.

Can I attend Group Reformer classes with no prior experienceBefore attending a group Reformer based class, it's important to learn the basic usage of the Reformer as well as some foundational exercises. This will ensure a safer and more enjoyable class for you and the other participants. You may schedule a Private session to learn these skills; some students only need one Private session to learn what is necessary to attend a Reformer class, while others need more. Those with prior experience working on a Reformer may still want to schedule a Private session first, as usage of the equipment can vary slightly from brand to brand.

I'm new to Pilates, where should I startHow to start can look a little different for different people, depending on the individual needs and goals of the person. When in doubt, the best place to start is with one or more Private sessions in which you'll be able to learn the foundational principles along with safe and proper use of the equipment. Additionally, Private sessions allow you and the instructor to determine if any modifications are necessary for you based on your individual needs. Then, if you wish, you can switch to or add in group classes with confidence. If you prefer to schedule on your own time or have the session 100% programed for you, Privates or Semi Privates might be the way to go. If you prefer a group atmosphere and a more generalized program, group classes are the way to go. Group classes are also less costly, if that's a concern. If you're hoping to have Pilates multiple times a week, a combination of Private or Semi Private PLUS group classes is a great way to get the value of both while increasing your frequency.

Body weight allowances on equipment (NO ONE WILL BE EXCLUDED)Pilates is for ALL bodies and abilities, however, some of the equipment and props do have body weight allowances which have been established by the manufacturers.

-
What should I wear for my Pilates sessionNo special clothing is required. You may wear any clothing you feel comfortable in that allows you to move freely, however, avoid wearing clothing with exposed zippers, grommets, etc. that may cause abrasions to the equipment. I do ask that all participants wear closed-toe socks (with or without sticky bottoms) to deter the spread of skin infection and disease. Additionally, Seed is a scent free space-in consideration of those with allergies or aversions to scent, please refrain from wearing fragrance or perfume while at the studio.​
