This Friday is Mat Pilates class #2 in our summer series! Last week we learned the first 5 exercises in Joseph Pilates’ Classical order (see previous post for breakdown). This week, we are tackling exercises 6 through 10 shown in these photos. And if you’re following along: your homework will be to then practice exercises 1 through 10 on your own so the following Friday we can add on 5 more!

Does memorizing this order sound complicated and overwhelming? No worries, we will write the order on the chalkboard in the studio for easy reference! But I do want to point out that learning something new which incorporates your mind and body is a great skill! Often times we hit an age as an adult where learning new things becomes rare and living a life of repetition becomes normalized. Let’s shake things up a bit and challenge ourselves together this summer!

We hear it all. And we are here for it all.

“My back hurts.”
“I’m stressed.”
“I need more energy.”
“I’m tight.”
“I’m weak.”
“I just need to feel better.”
#

And honestly?
Our answer is pretty consistent: movement.

Not punishment.
Not perfection.
Just safe, smart, effective Pilates that helps you feel stronger in your body and better in your life.

You bring us the complaints.
We’ll bring the springs.

We’re here for you. Always.

As I put together Friday’s 8 AM Mat Pilates class, I’m getting genuinely excited to teach Mat work again.

It’s been a while since I’ve guided a group through a full Mat class, but Mat Pilates is something I practice almost every day myself. And it reminded me of one of Joseph Pilates’ greatest gifts: he created a system you can take with you anywhere.

Mat work isn’t just what you do when a reformer isn’t available. It’s a carefully designed sequence of exercises meant to be practiced, repeated, and refined over time. The more familiar you become with the movements, the more ownership you take of your own practice. And as you probably could have guessed by now, the Mat work feeds in to your connections on the Reformer which builds your connections on the Chair which gets even more intense when you take it to the Tower... and the cycle continues!

That’s the beauty—and the challenge—of Mat Pilates. It asks you to participate. To learn the exercises. To remember the order. To revisit them often enough that they become part of your movement vocabulary.

Suddenly, you have a workout you can do on your living room floor, in a hotel room, at the park, or in that tiny corner of space where you thought nothing productive could happen.

This Friday, June 5, we’ll explore the first five exercises from Joseph Pilates’ original sequence of 34. We’ll move, learn, laugh, and probably play with a prop or two along the way. But you’ll definitely meet these foundational exercises—and maybe begin building a practice you can take anywhere.

See you on the mat.

I promised myself I wouldn’t show you the new set up until it was fully complete, but you guys know how excited I get over all things Pilates and I was busting at the seams to share the progress we’ve made! We feel so lucky to offer you the full Pilates system: tower, reformer, chair, mat… It feels right to bring you the full method of Pilates apparatus. We are curious to hear if you will have a favorite piece of equipment after experiencing everything this summer! Come in and check it out!

Big news from Garage Pilates!!

We’ve officially upgraded the studio and added even more equipment so we can offer small group classes across the Tower, Reformer, Chair, Mat, and allllllll the props we love to torture you with lovingly.

We know Reformers are super popular — which is great — but we’ve always believed Pilates works best when your body gets to move in different ways, on different apparatus, with different challenges and support. So yes… we’re quietly becoming one of the most well-rounded Pilates experiences around.

And before you ask:
No, we are NOT packing people in.

Even with a sixth piece of equipment added, everyone still gets personalized attention, plenty of space (about 10 feet between stations 🙌), and room to move without accidentally kicking your neighbor during leg circles because honestly… nobody likes that.

Small classes.
Experienced instructors, experts in their field.
Thoughtful programming.
More ways to move.
Still the same Garage Pilates vibe.

Come try the additions and upgrades for yourself. Your first class is half price, simply enter the discount code NEW during your online checkout through www.garagepilates.net.
