PILATES
In Suite sessions, special events, corporate retreats & group classes in Whistler, Pemberton & Squamish
Our sessions offer a blend of Classical and contemporary Pilates from our experiences teaching over a decade. This approach allows you to discover the best version that maintains youthfulness and optimal health. Sessions can be mat based or integrated with apparatus.
Developed in the 1940s, Joseph Pilates believed that “a stiff spine was old and a supple spine was young” - to the forefront is a focus on spine health, which includes mobility (agility), stability (strength), and longevity (stamina). As you experience Pilates in your body you will notice that by preserving the health of our spine you can minimize common conditions that can cause aggravations or injury - as the achievement of true health is when our bodies are in balance.
Pilates is fresh and inspiring - while maintaining depth and timelessness.
