Pilates Foundations 10-Week Series
with Melinda Kausek
Mondays at 6pm, January 11 - March 15, 2010!
 
Brand new to Pilates? Or maybe you've been practicing for a while, but feel like you've reached a plateau? Enter Pilates Foundations. Inspired by Melinda's own personal Pilates journey, this progressive, 10-week series will delve into the essence of Pilates movements on the Mat, Reformer, and the Chair.

Each week will focus on how to get the most out of each exercise, whether it's brand new or something you've done a thousand times. Get a sense of how the Equipment can both support and more deeply challenge the body and how nothing is more honest than good, clean Mat work. Also an excellent base for those pursuing their Pilates Certification!

Class is limited to 5 people and will build from week to week, starting with fundamentals and working toward the advanced work. Pre-registering for the entire series is highly recommended. Take advantage of our 10 Group Equipment Package for additional savings.

Only YOU Can Prevent Class Cancellations
It's all about pre-registering!
 
It happens more often than we would like: the dreaded canceled class. We only need a minimum of 2 people to keep any class on the schedule, although the more the merrier!  Please sign up in advance to keep classes on the schedule. We love seeing you!
 
Remember Your Socks!
Keep those tootsies warm...and more! 
 
We've received a few requests to remind everyone to remember to wear socks in the studio. This is just a simple precaution to contain the spread of various foot ickies such as ringworm, athlete's foot, plantar warts, etc. And if you're taking group equipment classes, please remember to wipe down the footbar well. Thank you!
 
Duets... It Takes Two!
We can help you find a +1!
Looking for a partner in crime (i.e. a duet partner) to help you get the most out of your Pilates experience, but not sure where to start? If you give us your details, we can help. Please send an email to info@corepilateson17th.com with your name, contact info, desired days/times, Pilates experience, and any special needs (prenatal, injury, etc.), and we will do our best to set you up with a duet partner.
