The Pilates Practice Intensive is an annual advanced-level four day practice designed for dedicated practitioners ready to refine their technique and embrace the challenge of fun, archival exercises that are not available easily in a regular studio group class.

What makes this Intensive special is its rare structure: a weekend of three-hour advanced mat practice per day that goes far beyond a typical class rushed in 55 mins. We begin with 1 hour and 15 minutes of preparation work, a layered warm-up built from skills, tools, imagery, and mobility exercises that awaken the body and create a strong foundation for the advanced repertoire. After a short break, we move into a 1.5-hour advanced flow, giving you the time and space to truly inhabit the advanced pilates repertoire, not just perform it, but feel it.

It's demanding but also very fun! The energy is collective, supportive, and deeply inspiring. You'll learn from your peers, encourage one another, and reconnect with your own practice in a new way: Where am I this year? What has shifted? Where do I want to go next?

For those who want to make it a four day experience, the weekend is expanded by Friday and Monday in-studio classes working with pilates equipment in smaller groups.

You are most welcome to practice together!
