Long + Lean Pilates Private SessionsWith only a week left for our Fall special, we want to share what you can gain from a private session with one of our Long + Lean instructors.

During a private session, you will have the luxury to work on the additional Pilates Apparatus that we don’t work on in class.

The Chair is considered to be the most challenging piece of Pilates equipment. Most of the repertoire on the chair is geared towards strengthening the legs and shoulders. The Chair is great for runners, golfers, tennis players, skiers, and any clients that use Pilates to cross train for their sport. It also challenges balance and core, which are elements everyone needs to work on.

The Trapeze Table, or Cadillac, is another great tool used for private sessions. The Cadillac offers exercises for all ages and abilities from assisted sit-ups to advanced acrobatics. We can also use the Cadillac to break down any of the Mat exercises (hello, Rollups) you see in class.

Pilates is very intricate. Every exercise you do should be a total body exercise. With a private session, we can take the time to break down the group class repertoire that challenges you and ensure you are getting the full benefit of each exercise.

Everyone’s bodies are different. Have you ever come to class and one part of your body is just so stiff? You hope you can stretch it out in class, and although you do, you just want a little bit more attention to one specific area? You can use your private sessions to stretch a little longer, and a little deeper, trying different stretches on the other Pilates Equipment. Your private session will be tailored specifically to your needs. One thing as humans we don’t do enough is listening to our bodies! Take the time indulge in a stretch, perfect your form, or learn some exercises to do at home, which will only add to the benefits you get from group classes!

Our Fall Special, 5 Group Classes and 5 Private Sessions (30 min.) for $210, is only available through October 31st. Contact us to get in on this deal!!
