Classical Pilates gave us six principles: breath, concentration, centering, control, precision, flow. Contemporary science gave us nervous system regulation, fascial intelligence, functional movement. We don't choose between them. We speak both languages fluently.

DO NOT SIGN UP IF:

• You want to disappear into a crowd of 20 bodies doing the same choreography regardless of what your shoulder, pelvis, or nervous system actually needs today.

• You're looking for trendy workouts to post on social media but leave your system depleted.

• You prefer instructors who stay neutral, never challenge your movement patterns, and treat everyone identically because it's "safer."

• You believe 6 principles written in 1945 should never evolve.

• You want to be left alone to "do your thing" without expert eyes tracking your compensation patterns before they become injury.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

• You want an instructor who knows your name, your injury history, your movement patterns, AND can explain why your rib cage positioning affects your pelvic floor.

• You understand that 4-6 people in a room allows for actual undivided attention.

• You're ready for programming that adapts as you age, recover from injury, navigate hormonal shifts, return to sport, or simply change your mind about what your body needs.

• If you want to be seen, known, and guided; not managed like a membership number.

THE RULES IN OUR STUDIO:

Rule #1: Your Instructor Leads. Actively. We don't "hold space" and let you figure it out. We watch how your knees moves during footwork. We cue your breath pattern to ease low back tension. We stop you mid-exercise if we see compensation. This is expert guidance, not background facilitation.

Rule #2: Small Groups Are Non-Negotiable 4-6 bodies maximum. Not because we're exclusive. Because you can't receive precision cueing, individualized attention, and adaptive programming in a crowd of 15.

Rule #3: Classical Principles Serve You, Not the Other Way Around We honor breath, concentration, centering, control, precision, flow. AND we adapt them through the lens of fascial health, nervous system states, and how your body actually moves today; not how the method says it should.

Rule #4: Your Body Changes. So Does Your Program. Postpartum doesn't get the same programming as perimenopausal. Post-injury doesn't move like pre-competition. We track your evolution, strength, range, compensation patterns, nervous system capacity, and adapt accordingly. You're not repeating the same class forever.

THE PRODUCTIVE TENSION WE CREATE:(Principle 6: Good Controversy)

We Will Challenge You:

• Classical Pilates worships control. We'll ask: what if trying to control your body is dysregulating your nervous system?

• You might believe "good posture" is static. We'll show you how rigid alignment creates restriction.

• You may think modification means weakness. We'll prove precision at your edge beats sloppy execution at someone else's range.

• Contemporary movement culture says "listen to your body." We'll ask: what if your body learned to lie to you through years of override?

This creates friction. Discomfort. A gap between what you thought you knew about "good movement" and what your actual body needs.
