The Pilates Studio news
May 2013
There is so much to tell you!

First of all- Thank you, thank you, thank you for voting us Best in the Valley in the Advocate's readers poll! We won first place for Pilates and 3rd place for blog. Your continued support means so much to us!

Now for the big news: this summer we are expanding! Over the past 2 years the studio has been getting busier and we kept joking about having to bust down walls for more space (especially for those noontime Mat Classes!).  It turns out there is a beautiful open room in the lower level of our building.  We'll spend the first half of June getting it ready for you- new floor, new mats, great lighting, everything just so- and then open it up for mat classes as soon as we can.  Apparatus Sessions and Group Apparatus Classes will still take place on the 2nd floor while Mat Classes will move downstairs to the new room.  

With more space we'll be able to offer a larger variety of classes, and you'll have a lot more space to stretch out and roll around.  Katrina and I are excited to see The Pilates Studio growing up and getting a little bigger but rest assured you'll still experience the friendly, tight-knit, comfortable and cozy feeling you've known all these years. (speaking of cozy: we even have a fireplace in the new room!).  We are committed to making your experience with us the best it can be!
