Pilates
Our Pilates Instructor, Danielle Best, teaches Pilates Mat classes for us and also has her own Pilates Studio in the offices above the Boulder Theatre where she works one-on-one with clients on her Pilates Reformer and other Pilates equipment. You will see the door to the left in front of the Theatre and that's the entrance to the Pilates Studio. The phone number to Danielle's Pilates Studio is 293-3142.
What is Pilates?
It is a unique method of body conditioning created by Joseph H. Pilates over 90 years ago. The method combines elements of yoga, gymnastics, weight training, and stretching into exercises using fluid, dance-like movements. Instead of isolating individual muscles, the exercises emphasize the mind-body connection and work all areas of the body in unison. By using gentle resistance and low repetitions with proper alignment and support, the method ensures that a little goes a long way. Pilates is ideal for people of all ages and fitness levels. Since the exercises are done with very little or no impact, even those with injuries or physical limitations will benefit.

Benefits include:
The six basic principles of Pilates are:

Programs available:
Private, one-on-one training sessions using the Reformer and other Pilates equipment and mat work. The reformer is a uniquely designed piece of Pilates equipment that uses pulleys, springs, and a sliding carriage. Further Pilates equipment will be available soon.
The Pilates Mat classes are very beginning Pilates work since these classes have never been offered in Boulder City before. We will offer more advanced Pilates Mat work at a later date!
