What Makes Lift Pilates Different?

Four clients. Four individual programs. One experienced teacher.

At Lift Pilates, everyone follows their own individualized program—not a one-size-fits-all class. You'll work on the apparatus best suited to your needs and experience, receiving personal instruction, hands-on corrections, and guidance as your practice develops.

“Contrology is designed to give you suppleness, natural grace, and skill that will be unmistakably reflected in the way you walk, in the way you play, and in the way you work.”
— Joseph H. Pilates, Return to Life through Contrology

Why Train with Laura

Experience makes a difference.

I've been teaching Pilates in Davis since 2001. Over more than two decades, I've continued to deepen my understanding of Joseph Pilates' original method, helping people of different ages, abilities, and movement histories develop stronger, more capable bodies.

Whether you're new to Pilates, returning after physical therapy, or an experienced practitioner looking to refine your practice, I'll meet you where you are and help you progress at your own pace.

I look forward to working with you.

— Laura
