At Pilates Effects we have classes designed to help each client make progress at an appropriate pace.

(0) Introduction Classes

Intro classes are typically for clients who are brand new to Pilates. No prior experience is required to sign up.
In an intro class, instructors will take clients through Level 1 Classical Pilates movements to ensure that they have a strong foundation before moving on to other class levels. Intro classes tend to move methodically, and the instructor will provide detailed explanations and hands-on cueing.
