INTRO TO BALANCE SMALL GROUP SESSIONS

First Tuesday of Every Month at 10 AM

Objective
To help participants understand how balance changes as we age and experience simple, effective exercises—guided by a Physical Therapist—that build confidence, stability, and trust in their body.
Instructor: Mary Smith
Mary is a retired physical therapist previously working with people with orthopedic problems. She started teaching Pilates in 2009.

Mary is a firm believer in the need to keep moving and finds Pilates and its principles very helpful for maintaining flexibility and strength and balance.
First Tuesday of every month at 10 AM
Reserve your spot for the Thursdays that you can attend. Consistency is the key to feeling results in your body!
Small on Purpose
No more than 5 people so everyone gets individual attention. We think it’s important that your teacher knows you and builds a relationship with you so she can help you get the most out of each session!
Reserve your spot
These sessions are conducted once a month. Guarantee your spot by registering early.

What to wear:

Wear comfortable fitting clothes that allow your body to move. It’s important to be comfortable when you are working out. When you are distracted by anything, including what you are wearing, you’re not spending as much time focused on the important things!! Most people go barefoot or wear grippy socks for this session, but you can wear tennis shoes for this small group if you prefer.

A supportive first step into balance training.

Not all balance training is created equal.

In this small group session, you’ll learn what actually works for your body with guidance from a licensed Physical Therapist. You’ll experience expert instruction, individualized attention, and a supportive environment where you can build confidence—not guess your way through it.

All exercises are done seated or standing, with options and progressions to meet you where you are. Each session focuses on improving strength, mobility, core stability, and foot and ankle strength—while giving you the opportunity to safely practice and improve your balance.

Weights and bands are used to support your strength training.

This session is safe and recommended for those with osteopenia and osteoporosis.

Schedule an intro session!
