The primary reason for taking sessions in a private studio setting is that it allows complete focus on your body and your personal goals. The private setting also eliminates distractions, especially the distraction of noticing how other people’s Pilates exercises appear. Once you have your fundamentals, enjoy group classes, or books or videos as a supplement. Even after practicing Pilates for years clients enjoy having a trained eye to tweak personal “flaws”. As an example, when working out alone or in a group setting, it’s hard to know when you are working unevenly or putting undue stress on joints. While there are over 600 exercises in the Pilates regimen, the beauty of Pilates is that each exercise can be executed differently depending on what that particular body needs. Its not enough to just simply execute a move; movements are specifically tuned for your body’s needs.
