Mainly Pilates has been specializing in Mat Class work since 2001. We pride ourselves on the ability to create a space where students can come together in a group setting, and yet feel they are receiving private instruction.

With a keen eye on each individual, we are able to create a class experience that is both fun and focused. Utilizing small pilates equipment, such as foam rollers, stability balls and therabands, or just the mats themselves, we take our students through a series of progressive pilates movements that target all areas of the body, focusing on proper use of “the core” and increasing strength, flexibility, balance and coordination.

Beginner Mat for Rehabilitation and Injury prevention


Please contact us for more information.

This beginner class is designed for a wide range of student- from the new pilates student looking to understand the fundamental concepts of the Pilates technique to those recovering from injury, graduating from physical therapy, or dealing with chronic physical concerns. . We explore what it means to engage “the core” (strengthening), and learn to move the body in all planes of movement (flexibility and coordination).

Basic / Mixed Level

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays 12 noon- 1pm w/ Melissa
These classes are available in person and via Zoom.

In this new weekly ongoing mat class we will use time-tested Pilates principles to become attuned to the functions of the core and the joints, and how they work together to create strength, ease, and grace in the body. A well-rounded class that addresses all of the body, with a focus on good hip and core function, will leave you feeling gathered, longer through your limbs, and more centered overall. 

WEDNESDAYS 6:15pm- 7:15pm w/Melissa
This class is offered as in person and via Zoom

This level assumes completion of the beginner level or a basic understanding of the fundamental principles of the Pilates technique. Continuing our general focus on strengthening and lengthening, the course progresses through the basic pilates repertoire.  This class is often referred to as “mixed” level as beginners quickly express interest in progressing through the repertoire and more advanced students, recognizing the value of “returning” to the basics, often convene in this class. Clients managing chronic injury/pain may still receive great benefit from this level class.

Intermediate

Please contact us for further information

Continuing our progression through increasing levels of difficulty, we challenge the body with more complicated movements. Intermediate level includes longer  movement sequences and increases the challenges to coordination and stamina.

"Melissa’s Pilates classes are a bedrock of my weekly routine. I count on them to keep me centered, toned and mindful, and I always leave feeling taller, more relaxed and more spacious inside. In addition to her incredible knowledge about the body and injury prevention, Melissa herself is the kindest and most generous teacher I know!"
