Core & Pelvic Floor Pilates


A 6-Week Educational Pilates Series

Each week we'll explore a different part of your body's natural support system, learning how the diaphragm, pelvic floor, deep abdominal muscles, spine, hips, and glutes coordinate to create stability from the inside out. Through guided Pilates exercises, hands-on awareness, and simple, practical education, you'll develop a deeper connection to your body while building strength, confidence, and ease in movement.

Unlike a traditional Pilates class, this series places equal emphasis on understanding why the exercises matter. Rather than simply following movements, you'll learn how to recognize what your own body is doing. How your breath influences your core, how your posture changes the way you move, and how your body naturally creates support. As your understanding grows, so does your ability to move with greater confidence, make informed choices, and respond to your body's changing needs both in class and in everyday life.

What We'll Explore

Throughout the six weeks, each class builds on the last, combining practical education with progressive Pilates movement to help you understand and experience the concepts in your own body.

Week 1 – Breath & Your Body's Natural Support System
Discover how breathing forms the foundation of core function and begin reconnecting with your diaphragm, pelvic floor, and deep core.

Week 2 – The Pelvic Floor
Explore the anatomy and function of the pelvic floor, common misconceptions, and how this remarkable group of muscles supports bladder, bowel, pelvic organ, and core function.

Week 3 – Your Deep Core
Learn how the deep abdominal muscles create support without gripping or bracing, and how to develop strength that feels responsive rather than rigid.

Week 4 – Moving as One System
Understand how the core, pelvic floor, breath, and spine work together during everyday movements, helping you move with greater confidence and efficiency.

Week 5 – Building Strength from the Ground Up
Explore the important role of the hips, glutes, and posterior chain in supporting pelvic stability, balance, and functional movement.

Week 6 – Bringing It All Together
Integrate everything you've learned into everyday movement while developing the confidence to continue your practice beyond the program.

Continue Your Learning at Home

Because learning happens through repetition, you'll receive three guided home practice videos that build with the series. These aren't extra workouts to keep up with, they're an opportunity to revisit the concepts we've explored in class, strengthen your understanding, and continue building confidence between sessions.
