FAQ's
What can I expect in my first session?
You’ll share your goals and any sensitivities, then we’ll move through simple, targeted Pilates with options for wrists, shoulders, hips, and back. We finish with breathwork or Reiki to settle your nervous system. You’ll leave feeling clearer and more grounded.
Do you work specifically with perimenopausal women?
Yes. Sessions are tailored to common perimenopause needs like sleep changes, hot-spot tension, and stress regulation so you can feel steady and strong again.
How does Pilates help my wrists and shoulders?
We build strength from your center, mobilize tight spots, and give you hands-friendly modifications. Expect smarter load, not more strain, and practical cues you can use at your desk.
How does Reiki fit into a Pilates session?
Pilates moves energy physically. Reiki moves it spiritually. We use Reiki at the end or as a full session to calm your system, reduce stress, and support recovery.
What’s the difference between 30‑minute and 50‑minute privates?
30 minutes is targeted tune-up work for one goal area. 50 minutes lets us assess, build strength, and integrate breath and recovery. Both are personalized.
Do you offer duet sessions?
Yes, 50‑minute duets are great for friends or partners with similar goals. We keep it focused, safe, and fun.
How soon will I feel results?
Most clients feel a difference in 1–3 sessions, notice changes in 6–10, and feel clear progress with consistent weekly practice. Progress beats perfection.
