Pilates is a method of physical conditioning created by German immigrant and fitness innovator Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century. The method is based on five reigning principles: Centering, Control, Breath, Precision and Flow.

At Good Forme Pilates, we build on the essence and principles of his work by incorporating contemporary knowledge about the body to develop safe and effective programming.

It is recommended that Pilates is practiced at least two to three times a week for maximum results. If you are not able to commit to private sessions, small group classes recommended. We will assist in designing a program that fits your budget and schedule and will work with you to achieve your goals.

We aim to empower moms-to-be by preparing the body for birth and offer individualized support for postpartum recovery.

No! Joseph Pilates was a boxer who began developing the Pilates method while training German police and military officers in self-defense. The recent growth in Pilates can be attributed in large part to its higher popularity in men. Pilates workouts can be tailored to enhance performance in men's sports such as golf, football, mixed martial arts and more.
