WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THE PILATES METHOD I TEACH?

LIFT PILATES is at the forefront of delivering Pilates in a new way called Open Studio. We believe in following a traditional approach that encourages clients to develop self-practice habits and mindset. By running open studio Pilates sessions, we redefine the role of the teacher as a coach and, importantly, empower our clients to build resilience, consistency, and mastery over the Pilates system. Open studio aligns with Joseph Pilates' original goal for its practitioners and is more fundamental to truly understanding Pilates than just training with the exercises.

OPEN STUDIO Pilates Method is the best way to achieve long-term success in Pilates. Since implementing this open studio format, our clients have made remarkable physical and mental progress in their Pilates practice in mere months, which previously would have taken years to achieve.

  • Pilates requires consistency and patience, but the results are worth the effort. At Lift Pilates, we provide personalized programs tailored to each client's needs in a supportive and fun environment. Our open studio method encourages clients to take their time, make mistakes, enjoy their successes, and discover from their challenges; that's how we learn and grow. Join us on this journey to better health and become part of our dynamic, community-oriented space.

    Lift Pilates also runs as a hybrid practice where our clients can join Open Studio practice virtually - the virtual option is popular when our clients travel or can’t get into the studio.
