FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes!  We offer a single class and a "Jump-Start Special" package for all of our services. These offers are for any client new to our studio, regardless of experience level, and each can be used once before moving onto the regular packages. Click on our Prices tab to review, or look for these intro prices at the top of the drop-down list of payment options when you book.

Our Newbie reformer class is geared for beginners just like you or for those who are just returning to Pilates after a long break.  These "Newbie/Level 1" classes are offered daily at different times throughout the week to accommodate most schedules.  

After a few of these classes, most students feel comfortable enough to advance to the Level 1-2 classes that are offered more often.  

However, many students stay in this level because they enjoy the pace or it just fits their schedule.  You will learn and improve your Pilates practice even if you have prior experience! Just click "Book Now" on the class you want to get started on your Pilates journey!

Pilates is great for most ages!  Our students have ranged from 9 to 99.  Depending on your age, goals and any physical issues, private sessions may be recommended over group classes.  Please consult with the studio if you have any questions. For minors who wish to attend alone, parents or legal guardians must be involved in the registration process beforehand.

IMPORTANT!  If you are not 18 years old, your parent or legal guardian MUST sign a separate waiver for minors.  Please have them contact the studio at 310-533-1778 to have this sent to them.  You will not be allowed to attend any class if this is not completed by them.

 Even if you are otherwise fit and athletic, if you have never done Pilates reformer, you must start with a Newbie/Level 1 class or a private. 

All our reformer classes are by levels: 

• Newbie/Level 1: Beginners welcome!
• Level 1-2 (High Beginner/Intermediate): Reformer experience required.
• Level 2 (Intermediate): Solid intermediate level experience and studio pre-approval required. 
• Level 3 (Advanced): Solid advance level experience and studio pre-approval required. 
• 
  

Please refer to the prerequisites for each class and select the correct class for your experience level.  You can always take and benefit from a lower level class but please do not jump to a higher level class without the approval of the studio.  Pilates is similar to martial arts in that you wouldn't want to jump into a black belt class if you aren't ready for it!  

No, the Jump-Start Special is just an intro pricing option to get started at our studio so you can use it for any level classes that matches your reformer experience.  If you are a beginner, then you will start using it with one or more of our "Newbie/Level 1" classes but can use it when you graduate to the "Level 1-2" classes too! 

You really don't need to bring anything but a good attitude!  We have everything else you will need.  Optionally, you might want to bring your water bottle and a small towel.  Grip socks are recommended. For mat, we have plenty of thick Pilates mats but you are welcome to bring your own.

• Any comfortable clothing is fine: sweats, yoga pants, tee or tank, etc.  If shorts, please wear compression shorts too. ·        
• Please no bedazzled/zippered garments, dangling/heavy jewelry or hard hair clips since they can get caught and/or damage the equipment.
• We work in either grip socks or bare feet.  (Regular socks are fine for the first few classes.)
• We kindly ask that you please avoid wearing strong fragrances or lotions for the comfort of other students with sensitivities.
• No chewing gum in class!

There is plenty of free street parking on both cross streets of Cravens and Marcelina, as well as in the City of Torrance parking lot across Cravens.  Please do not park in the small off-street lot in front of the studio. That is not ours to use.)
