Why TRAIN With Us?

We Offer an Incomparable Experience.

With over 20 years of experience, Carmen shares the work of Joseph Pilates from time spent with many second and first-generation teachers that she has studied with. Her time spent with Jay Grimes & Vintage Pilates owner Sandy Shimoda of Los Angeles has had a profound impact on the way Carmen approaches Joseph Pilates’ method of exercise called Contrology with her own students, and how she helps people find the work in their own body. Through just the right amount of guidance, Carmen champions students to trust the Joe’s work and to find those exercises specific for their own bodies needs. Carmen continues to hone her practice and teaching skills with Lori Coleman-Brown and Teresa Shupe of Atlas Pilates from Seattle and brings this experience back to her students, keeping the work fresh and exciting.

We Offer SOmething for everyone.

In Joe’s day, his gym supported all levels training simultaneously, but before that he required new students to start with a few privates lessons. At Aligned Pilates, there is a class that fits everyone’s level of comfort and challenge, but first at least 4 privates are required to develop a personal workout program.

Students at Aligned Pilates have an opportunity to practice with others in small groups, individually one on one in private lessons, and as the student progresses there is the opportunity to self practice.

Having “a key” to the studio is the vision for Aligned Pilates students.

If you are wondering where to start at Aligned Pilates reach out to us HERE

Sincerely,

Carmen and the Aligned Pilates Team.
