Students utilize all of the classical Pilates apparatus in the diverse offering of small group classes and private training alike. In so doing, they are set up to achieve the myriad benefits of Pilates, including improved posture, strong core, increased flexibility, better balance, lengthened muscles, weight loss and stress reduction.

Whole Body takes a holistic approach to health and happiness, and offers wellness consultation to complement clients’ workout regimes. To further enhance this holistic approach, an in-studio lifestyle store offers gear, nutrition bars, nutrition supplements and clothing to fit with a healthy lifestyle.
