Pilates for Rehab and Recovery

We recommend any client with a history of pain, injury or an underlying, chronic condition to start with an Initial Assessment.

This is a discounted 60 minute one to one session with one of our teachers, where we take a history, check in with you on what your goals are from a Pilates program and then take you through a workout so we can see how you’re moving and give any modifications needed.
