I've been working with Tom since 2004 and truly believe that his unique style of teaching and exercises helped me earn my 12 medals in the Athens, Beijing and London Olympics.

If you are a newcomer, here's how to get started!
Our Welcome Packages offer a good discount on our services to jumpstart your program! Ultimately doing a few privates with one of our instructors is the best way to develop a personal practice. Based on your goals, issues or injuries, we will tailor sessions specifically to you, and help you figure out a course of training.
For students who are most interested in moving into equipment groups, this combo pass is for you! With your 3 privates sessions, you'll work with a staff instructor to address any specific issues or imbalances you may have. In your sessions, you'll focus on learning the equipment repertoire, emphasizing proper alignment, core activation, fundamental movement principles, and equipment setup. So you'll feel confident and prepared to move into an ongoing group!
3 Privates & 5 Groups ($480) - Save $90!
If you have specific issues or injuries, or if you are looking for a personalized approach to developing a Pilates and movement practice, this combo pass is for you! Private sessions are the best way to accelerate your learning and help you get the most out of your training. Our instructors will work with you to create a plan for your movement and conditioning goals, and help you get the most out of mat class, group equipment sessions, or any workout regime you pursue.
