New to Pilates? Start Strong with Expert Guidance
Pilates is an excellent, beginner-friendly workout, especially when you start under the supervision of a certified instructor. At our Louisville studio, we teach the Classical Pilates method, a time-tested movement system designed to strengthen the entire body while building stability, stamina, and stretch. This renowned strength-training approach uses spring-driven apparatus to condition your body safely, effectively, and efficiently from head to toe.
What type of Pilates session should I take?
At Pilates Fit Studio, we firmly believe that private Pilates is the best way to start your Pilates practice, regardless of whether you are a beginner or an experienced athlete. Private sessions allow you to work on your specific health goals and get the most out of your training program. These private sessions make an incredible beginner-friendly form of safe and effective exercise. Each lesson will be personalized to give you a strong foundation, help you gain new skills, and work towards your goals. You will get familiar with the essential apparatus setup instructions to move forward into a duet or semi-private small group class.
What to Expect During a Beginner Pilates Private Session
No matter your fitness level, beginner Pilates is where it all starts. From athletes to fitness newbies, we begin with the foundational beginner system. The beginner system of Pilates exercises will become the building blocks for intermediate and advanced exercises.
During your beginner Pilates sessions in Louisville, your teacher thoroughly explains everything: when to change the spring setting, the choreography, the number of repetitions, and how to get on and off the apparatus. The beginner exercises are not easy, but they are effective and safe for everyone. You will sweat and get a challenging workout.
At the end of each workout, your trainer will update your account with SOAP notes so you can always see your progress and what needs to be worked on.

Pilates Mat Exercise to build stability and strength
To begin your lesson, your trainer will place you on a stable surface, either the classical raised mats or the Cadillac, to work on strength and stability with the mat exercises.
Beginner System on the Reformer
As your teacher gains information through your movements, you will move to the reformer and begin working through the beginner system.
Working on Individual Needs
After completing exercises on the mat and the reformer, your trainer will assess your strengths, asymmetries, and areas that need improvement to decide where to take you next. These are your individual needs. You might use the highchair to work on stability or small barrels to improve spinal mobility and activate the powerhouse.
Alignment, Standing Balance, and Stability
To end, we ensure you are standing tall with either an alignment check on the wall or the arm weight series to work with shifting gravity while building strength in the upper body.
