Group Movement Classes

At Lakeside Pilates the majority of our classes focus on gentle movement and attention is paid to the quality of movement and improving mis-alignments and imbalances within the body. Modalities currently offered include: Pilates, Restorative Movement, MELT Method and Yoga. We help individuals move and feel better, build strength and balance, or just to spend an hour of their week for themselves.

Participants will need to get on and off the floor independently.

While the majority of our classes are suitable for individuals with aches and pains as well as pre/post surgery. Always consult a physician before starting this program. Starting class before you’re ready may prolong your recovery period.

 

Restorative Movement

Restorative Movement classes are a low-impact, slow-paced class that combines Pilates Mat, soft tissue release, and basic Yoga movements.

This class is perfect for a wide audience, including anyone who has minor aches and pains, muscular/posture misalignments, pelvic dysfunction, pre-post surgery, stress relief, sleeplessness, or pre/postnatal. Restorative Movement classes are very accessible making it an option for anyone who has not moved in a while or is new to group fitness classes. Click here to learn more.

Classes are limited to 5 participants. Because of this pre-registration is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • All of our classes are accessible to new students who have no Pilates, Yoga or movement class experience. If you are concerned about joining a class we encourage you to attend a Beginner Series workshop. These are scheduled throughout the year and specifically for newbies. We encourage you to sign up for our e-newsletter for workshop announcements and updates. Or email info@lakesidepilates.com for more information.

  • No worries. Many of our clients are new to Pilates, Yoga or any type of fitness class. Our classes move slowly and we’re a welcoming community. You’ll find support and encouragement from instructors and class participants.

  • Wear anything comfortable, such as sweatpants and a t-shirt. We ask that you go barefoot or wear socks during class. We also have sticky socks to borrow or purchase at the studio.

  • Nope! We have comfy Pilates Mats, foam rollers, Yoga straps and all the items required in class. If you love your Yoga mat and prefer to bring that please do so. But it is not required.

  • Classes and private sessions are 50-minutes in length (unless noted otherwise). Workshops may be longer, but will always be noted in the class description.

  • Yes! Please plan on arriving at the studio around 5-10 minutes early for your first class. This will give you time to complete our new client registration.

  • Some of our weekly classes may be taken in-person or over Zoom. The schedule will state if a class is available in-person and/or online. If you have questions email info@lakesidepilates.com.

  • Yes, we will be adding merchandise to an online store soon but feel free to ask during class or email info@lakesidepilates.com for more information.

  • Restorative Movement, Pilates, MELT and Yoga classes are all wonderful ways to gain strength and stability post surgery. You will want to chat with your medical professional (physician, therapist, etc.) before joining classes. If they have cleared you to attend class, then yes. In some instances, Private Sessions are more suitable as you begin moving again. If you have specific questions we encourage you to call or email the studio.

  • None of our classes (Restorative Movement, Pilates, Yoga or MELT) will permanently fix a persistent ache, pain or injury. It may help alleviate pain or assist with muscular imbalances and building strength. If you have been experiencing pain for awhile we encourage you to see a medical professional before beginning any physical fitness program. In some cases, movement classes may make a situation worse - not better. A medical professional can help determine what is happening in your body and if movement classes are right for you. In no way should any of our classes be used in lieu of seeing a medical professional.

  • We are always interested in what class times best fit our clients. If you are interested in a class time not currently offered please call or send us a note with the class type, day of the week and time you are looking for. If there is enough interest, we may add that class type and time to the schedule.
