CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
THE PILATES STUDIO CALGARY

Private Sessions  
Is the best way to address a client's special needs and are highly recommended for people with injuries, back problems and health conditions, as well as those with no previous Pilates experience. Sessions are booked like an appointment and are one hour long. Instructors can assess a client's strengths and weaknesses and provide modifications that will work best for each individual. A session typically begins with clients learning the fundamentals of the technique. These fundamentals can then be applied to the mat vocabulary as well as to exercises on the reformer, cadillac and chair. The instructor helps guide the client throughout the sessions, ensuring correct alignment and a balanced use of muscles.
