Life Changing Results: The Bovée Way

Your body isn’t a problem to fix. It’s a partner to work with.

Created by Ahmé Bovée, a Master Pilates Instructor and one of the top-ranked educators in the country. Thirty years on the floor taught her exactly what Pilates has been missing, and exactly where it’s going next.

Her method blends real movement science with positive psychology, so the results go deeper than the physical. You will gain the strongest body of your life, and carry yourself differently, in the studio and everywhere else.

It is a proven methodology, three decades in the making, built on how your body actually moves and grows from there.

People come in for the workout. They stay for the community that feels like home.

FAQs

How many classes per week should I take?

To get the best results attending 2-3 classes per week is recommended. Many of our regular clients tell us that two times per week is when they really started to feel and see dramatic changes in their body.

What do I wear to class?

Wear comfortable clothes that you can move freely in, nothing restrictive. For safety and cleanliness, we require sticky socks be worn. You can bring your own or we do have some you can purchase.

If you need to wear shoes and/or orthotics because of a physical or medical issue please wear clean indoor athletic shoes only. We keep our studio floor and equipment immaculately clean and we do not want outside dirt or contaminants.

I am a beginner, what group class should I start with?

Get started with a private one-on-one introduction (see our VIP special) or a FREE INTRO group class. From there the instructor will make a personalized recommendation for the best program for you.

When entering into group classes our Signature Mixed Level class is the most common starting point.

Do I need to make a reservation or can I just “drop in”?

Reservations are required for classes and private lessons. CONTACT US to get started.

If I am new to the studio do I need to do anything special for my first class?

Yes, please arrive at least 10 minutes early to your first class to fill out our New Client Form and make sure to introduce yourself to the instructor when you arrive. The instructor will welcome you, get you oriented and help you set up for class. Please feel free to approach them after class for any further assistance or questions you may have.

What is the difference between a Monthly Membership and purchasing “flex” classes?

When you sign up for a monthly membership, you will be enrolled in an autopay program. Each month your credit card will automatically be charged based on the membership you have chosen. Attending regular classes yield the best results!

Flex classes are class credits that are good for one year from purchase. This option is better for someone who travels a lot or does not think they can come to class regularly. We offer flex classes in packages of 8,16 or 24.

Does my Membership have to start on a particular day of the month?

You can start anytime! The first day your membership becomes active will become the day of the month your autopay will be processed each subsequent month. If you have any other questions about the Monthly Membership option or would like assistance signing up please CONTACT US.

How do I schedule a private session?

We would be delighted to assist you. Please CONTACT US.

What are your cancellation policies?

Group Reformer Classes: call, email or cancel online up to 8 hours prior to the start of class and you can reschedule your class reservation without losing the class credit.

Private, Semi-Private sessions & Massage: 24 hours cancellation notice is required or full fee is charged

Memberships: 30 days written notice

What is your policy on inclement weather?

If our classes are cancelled they will show up as cancelled on our app and website. All participants who were enrolled will receive an automated email message. Our cancellation policies do stay in effect.

If I have a special condition like Osteoporosis, Pregnancy, Scoliosis, or Back pain can I do Pilates?

Yes, Pilates is often recommended for people with special conditions like osteoporosis, pregnancy, scoliosis or back pain however, it is important to speak an instructor first to determine which classes are suitable for your condition. Specific modifications are required for each condition so we will likely recommend that you first start with private training sessions so we can go over the modifications required to keep you safe.

Our expert instructors are specifically trained to work with you and your individual needs to make a safe, effective and informed exercise program.
