Mat Pilates in West Town, Chicago
Classical mat Pilates with thoughtful cueing, for every level.
The class
Mat Pilates is the foundation of the Pilates method. In 45 minutes you'll work through classical mat exercises that build core strength, breath control, posture and mobility. Our instructors bring in props like the magic circle and blocks, so no two classes are the same.
Why start with mat
Mat classes teach you the core principles of Pilates without a machine. They're a great entry point if you're brand new, and a great complement to reformer classes if you already train with us.
What clients say

Pricing
New clients: first class $20. Drop-in $27. Class packs and memberships work for both mat and reformer classes. See Pricing.
FAQ
- Do I need experience?
- No. Every exercise is taught and modified for your level.
- What's the difference between mat and reformer Pilates?
- Mat uses your bodyweight and small props. Reformer adds spring resistance on a machine. Both build core strength; many clients do both.
