What you practice at body evolution

Pilates is the heart of body evolution. Nearly all of the classes fall under this practice, and reformer is the style you will meet most often. Many sessions are marked all levels, so you can join a class without a long background in movement.

The studio also offers tower classes, including the Open Level Pilates Reformer/ Tower Class and the GYROTONIC® Tower Class. Both run 60 minutes, which gives a full session of work on the apparatus.

How the week runs

Morning is the busiest part of the day here, with about half of the classes starting before noon. Early starts from 7am and a cluster of sessions at 8am, 9am and 11am make the morning a popular window. Midday and evening each hold about a fifth of the schedule, and weekend classes make up a similar share.

Monday, Wednesday and Thursday are the busiest days, so those are good days to check availability ahead of time. Classes start as late as 7pm, so evening practice is available too.
