Pilates

Strength through mindful movement

Introduction

Pilates delivers a series of exercises that creates functional strength, supports better posture and teaches the body how to move. At Rocky Mountain Pilates & Yoga we provide a safe and encouraging atmosphere for all ages, where people can train for the strength, stability, and confidence that will carry them through a long healthy life. It is our goal to aim our clients’ focus on the real beauty and strength they hold within themselves.

Our brand new, state-of-the-art facility was designed to enhance the Pilates experience for students in private lessons and group classes, and for Pilates teacher training. It is filled with light, beautiful finishes, and plentiful space. Read more about our new facility.

Private

Private sessions are great for all different purposes. Whether you’re recovering from an injury or want to get in shape, we are able to use all of the apparatus and focus specifically on your individual needs. Private sessions are a great way to help you recover quicker from injuries and avoid future injuries. Private sessions are also a great way to reinforce your group classes and help to deepen your practice.

Semi-Private

Semi-private sessions are a great way to have more individualized attention than you would in a group setting. We get to work on all the different apparatus and focus on specific goals.

All Level Reformer

This class is available to all students whether you’re just finishing up your private sessions and starting classes or you have years of experience. All of our teachers offer modifications throughout each class so you have the option to challenge yourself more or the option to modify. We use the reformer to help guide you through exercises, balance development of your body through core strength, flexibility and awareness, and allow your body to move more efficiently and gracefully.

Tower

The Tower is an apparatus that helps to increase your range of motion and unilateral movement while building long lean musculature. Your core has to work to manage the spring tension while you develop spinal articulation and stabilization. It’s a great way to strengthen your whole body and helps keep your spine healthy. This class is open to people of all levels and our teachers will always offer modifications as needed.

Jump Board

The jump board is a platform that’s attached to the end of the reformer that provides a larger landing surface. These classes are 30 minutes long and designed to raise your heart rate, burn calories, and build long lean muscles while keeping your joints supported.

Intro to Reformer

Looking to brush up on your form or technique? Just finished your 3 intro private sessions? This class will teach you to fine-tune your alignment and posture, and apply it to all your classes and life.

Fun Friday Reformer Flow

This class will be a collaborative mix! Classical pilates with a bit of heart rising and variations of fun contemporary movements. All with Pilates principles in mind. Come challenge yourself with this flow class. (Previous Pilates please)

Oov

The Oov is a three-dimensional, movement training and feedback device designed to mimic the movement of the spine. Working on the Oov automatically wakes up and activates the body’s core and increases the user’s proprioception. The Oov is made of a non-toxic, latex-free material that conforms to the body. It is a great addition to any movement practice, but it pairs especially well with Pilates.

My experience teaching on the Oov: “Working with students on the Oov has been very rewarding. Using the Oov, I can quickly evaluate how their bodies are moving and what they need. I don’t have to spend time teaching them how to recruit muscles because the Oov automatically wakes the body up. They get the feeling of elongation and three-dimensional core control right from the start, so students report analyzing their movement less and more time just enjoying moving.”
