Private Session
A 55 minute session designed and focused on meeting your body's exact needs. Instructors are hand-picked for clients, and will work with you to develop any specific areas you would like to strengthen, provide excellent guidance to best address any ailments, and help you explore all aspects of the technique being mindful of your personal ability.
-
Duet Session
A 55 minute session designed and focused on meeting you and your partner's specific needs. Duet Sessions operate just as Private Sessions do, except a friend or partner is able to work alongside you. Duet sessions still maintain an incredible degree of personal attention and guidance, with the added bonus of having a partner to motivate you. When booking a duet, you must already have someone you would like to join you.

Small Group Classes
A 55-minute class that rotates through the Reformer and Tower. This is an intermediate challenge for those who have previous Pilates experience. The diverse apparatus will help you gain even more strength and really dive deeper into your Pilates practice and the full use of the system that Joseph Pilates created.

What Is Pilates?
Joseph Pilates
NEW YORK - OCTOBER 1961: Joe Pilates, Inventor, physical fitness guru and founder of the Pilates exercise method instructs a client on the Cadillac and works her through an exercise routine in his 8th Avenue studio on October 4, 1961 in New York City, New York. (Photo by I.C. Rapoport/Getty Images)
Pilates is a form of total body conditioning that is accessible to people of all ages and levels of fitness. Pilates was created by Joseph Pilates as a means of physical workout and total body healing. The six core principles of Pilates are concentration, control, centering, flow, precision and breathing and are integral components of each Pilates session. The principles work synergistically to heal the body, and restore a mind/body connection. Pilates exercises strengthen muscles by lengthening and toning rather than creating bulk and are performed either on mats or utilizing specialized apparatus. At Westside Pilates your instructor will tailor the exercises specifically to your needs and physical conditions.

What People Say About Westside Pilates

This is a seriously excellent Pilates studio and terrific addition to the LIC neighborhood! The instructors are all top-notch and able to tailor classes to the students’ abilities and experience levels. I also love that the class size is kept small - so you get plenty of individual attention. An added bonus the space is beautiful! — Lauren R (Long Island City)

I’ve been a student at Westside Pilates for a few years and recently took a class at their Long Island City location. The space is gorgeous! It is clean, bright, welcoming, and comfortable. All of the equipment is state of the art. I took a class with Nika and was very impressed with her teaching style, knowledge of modifications for my back injury. Plus she made the class fun! I was really impressed with the overall quality of the service, individual attention, and communications from the staff.

Adrianne is a fantastic Pilates trainer who is extremely dedicated to her craft. I have been working with her for several years now and have found that over time my lower back pain is greatly diminished as a result of her professional expertise. I highly recommend that anyone who suffers from lower back issues schedule a few sessions with Adrianne. She’s truly a miracle worker!.
