If you’re new to Pilates, here’s what to expect when you walk into your first class at Forme Pilates: you’ll move through slow, controlled exercises that focus on your breath, alignment, and precision. Don’t worry if you’ve never worked out like this before. Pilates welcomes all levels. Wear comfortable clothes, bring a water bottle, and come ready to feel a strong, centered connection to your body.

Some terms to know: The “powerhouse” refers to your core muscles, including abs, back, and pelvic floor. “Reformer” is a popular Pilates machine with springs and pulleys that adds resistance. And you might hear cues like “imprint your spine” or “engage your deep abdominals”—all part of building control that Pilates is famous for.
