Class Descriptions

Beginning & Intermediate Mat Classes (Minnetonka)

In these classes we learn the foundations of the Pilates Matwork exercises, paying careful attention to proper form. I will cue each exercise and give individual modifications for different body injuries, aches, and pains, so you can move more confidently and into the Intermediate Class if you wish. The Beginner Class moves at a slower pace with more attention to learning each exercise. The Intermediate Class moves at a quicker pace, with less time cueing the set-up of each exercise. Both classes include balance work at the end.

You can register through the City of Minnetonka's website, by calling the main line at 952-939-8393, or in person at the main community center desk.

Intermediate/Advanced Mat Class (Virtual)

In this class I guide you through the classical Pilates Matwork series with playful variations. This class involves less cueing than the Beg/Int Class so the movements can flow at a quicker pace. Individual variations and modifications will be given on a “as needed” basis. This class ends with a squat and balance series to improve leg & bone strength and balance.

Breathwork for Stress Relief (Virtual)

In this class I will guide you through different types of breathwork, so you can find one that “fits” your health and wellbeing needs. Many can be found on-line, but as I know from experience sometimes a scheduled session helps us to “show-up” and do the work.

The format of these virtual sessions will be different from my other class offerings. In order to create a welcoming and calm space, everyone will be muted and you can choose to have your video on or off.

Foam Roller Massage (Virtual)

In this class we will STRETCH AND MASSAGE your neck, shoulders, back, and legs. Doesn’t that sound wonderful???
