Who We Are

Ponte is a boutique Pilates studio specializing in reformer and mat training, with private sessions available for more focused instruction.

We believe Pilates builds lasting strength, improves how you move, and creates a strong foundation for everything else you do outside of the studio.

Our Offerings

  • Our group mat classes follow the principles and foundations of Pilates, building from movement, terminology, breath, alignment, and control. Explore different levels, styles, and challenges as you progress through your practice.

  • Our small group reformer classes build on the Pilates method through the use of the apparatus, adding resistance and support while challenging strength, control, mobility, and coordination. Choose from a variety of class styles and levels as you progress through your practice.

  • Bespoke Pilates sessions in a private one-on-one or duet setting. Private sessions can be supportive for rehabilitation, pre- and post-natal movement, mobility, returning to movement after injury, athletic performance, active aging, balance, strength, and more. Each session is designed to meet your individual needs and experience.

  • Assisted stretching to support flexibility, mobility, range of motion, and recovery.
