Q: What if I can’t do something the instructor asks me to do?
A: Y’all. This is seriously one of the most frequent questions we get asked, so please don’t be embarrassed if it crossed your mind too. We were beginners once, and we’ve all seen our fair share of physical therapy. Please ask us for help. When you ask us about Pilates, you give us a chance to not only talk about our favorite thing in the world, but also help you with our favorite solution to all problems…Pilates! Know that being in a body is a shared human experience and that you’ll be in a judgement-free zone.
Q: Speaking of instructors, what are their qualifications?
A: Our amazing team of instructors are highly qualified and passionate about sharing the practice of mindful movement. Most of our instructors have over 1000 hours of experience teaching, and all of our instructors complete an additional 25 hour certification in the Pilates for the People method. Our method ensures classes are delivered from a trauma-informed lens while staying fun and up-to-date on the latest in movement science. We know that the best students make the best teachers, and we’re always learning so that we can honor the Pilates method. We are so, so passionate about the way that Pilates makes the world a better place, and we’re excited to share everything we know with you!
Q: What should I wear?
A: Pilates isn’t a fashion show at Pilates for the People, and you don’t have to dress a certain way to “fit in.” Come in clothes that are comfortable that allow you to move. Sometimes we’re upside down or on our hands and knees, so we recommend wearing close fitting bottoms (as a community, we’re close, but not that close!). Also, if you’d like to strut your fashionista self onto your reformer like its a runway, knock yourself out. We’re here for that too.
