Pilates is a physical fitness system that was created by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century. Grounded in technical, controlled movement sequences and breath, Pilates encourages a well balanced body that emphasizes ergonomic posture, core strength and proper muscle recruitment.

Since its creation, Pilates has been gaining popularity and respect from both health professionals and athletes alike as a reputable method for injury prevention, supplementary training, rehabilitation, athletic conditioning and a sustainable form of exercise. Practicing Pilates on a regular basis can improve posture, stability, flexibility, balance, endurance, muscle tone and improved cores strength.

Don’t let the equipment intimidate you! It was designed to help guide your movement patterns and support you. Once you learn the ropes it’s incredibly addictive. No one is expected to have any previous Pilates knowledge, we will teach you how to set up your equipment properly for your body, and choose the exercises that are best for you. All fitness levels are welcome! We separate our group classes into beginner, intermediate & advanced levels so that everyone gets the most out of their workout, and Private sessions are customized just for you.

We recommend that you wear fitted workout wear in order for us to see what you're doing and for you to move without constriction. For women that means 'yoga-wear' - leggings and top are great (avoid pants with a zipper or pocket on your low back). For men that means long shorts or pants and t-shirt or tank. Avoid short/running shorts and wear underwear - you might be doing hip-stretching. Be comfortable! Don't forget your socks!

No, but grip socks are recommended and we have them for purchase at the studio.

For our Mauka Studio, we have one first-come parking spot in the garage at 3150 Monsarrat. It is the first spot on the left.

If you are attending a group class or have a private session in our new Makai Studio we have a parking lot on the corner that we share with Morey’s Restaurant. If spots are taken please find street parking (refer to parking image above).

We have restrooms with room to change, and gym towels. Please bring your own water bottles.

If you’re new to Pilates we do strongly encourage you to try at least one private session for a more personalized introduction to the Pilates work. If that’s not an option for you, our group classes are separated into levels. Try our “Foundational” class first which teaches the beginner level Pilates exercises, as well as how to set-up your equipment.

Once you have a good understanding of all of the beginner level exercises, ask your instructor if they recommend you moving on to the intermediate level. Our advanced class requires thorough knowledge of the beginning and intermediate classical Pilates order and an instructor approval. Please make sure you are approved before you sign up for the advanced class.

Sign up on the waitlist. You may have a chance of making it into the class as often times people can cancel due to unforeseen circumstances.

If you are signed up for the waitlist and someone cancels their spot, Mindbody will automatically notify you via email when you are moved our of the waitlist. Please be on the lookout for that email or sign up for text alerts on your account.

If you are late, please either let your instructor or our studio manager know so we can hold your spot. For our evening classes, the front door will be closed for security purposes. You may enter through our back door and knock to inform the instructor let you in. The back door is located to the left of the front door, at the end of the patio. Please don’t be more than 15 minutes late.
