Mindfulness Pilates is an introductory course covering the essential level of Stott Pilates. The class will focus on learning the principles of Pilates, the mat work, and creating mind-body awareness. You can take Mindfulness Pilates as many times as you need to build strength, improve posture, and relieve stress. Props such as stretch bands may be used in class and are provided by the instructor.
You may bring a thick towel or workout blanket for additional support. If you have an issue the instructor needs to be sensitive about (such as recent surgery, health conditions, etc.), please let Courtney know before class. Please consult your doctor before attending class if you have any health conditions.
Please bring a mat, towel, water bottle, and stretch band (optional).
Here is what they are saying about Courtney's Pilates Class:
"Courtney is knowledgeable and very talented at teaching multiple levels at once. She is excellent at taking challenging things and making them approachable."
"The instructor Courtney was awesome - she was able to differentiate for different fitness abilities and body types. I liked that it was a beginner Pilates class and she was really assuming we were all beginners as it was advertised. She was very patient and always played very calming music - also liked that the class was small - highly recommend!"
"The instructor, Courtney, did a great job cueing and made the class fun."
Courtney has been practicing Pilates for nearly 15 years. She is trained in the Stott Pilates method and has taught Pilates, stress-relief, and body relaxation techniques to survivors of human trafficking and domestic abuse.
