It’s SAFE, not easy!
For starters, congratulations! We’re honored to be part of your wellness team during this special time. You’ll love our Prenatal & Postnatal workouts because they’re safe without sacrificing any of the good feelings that come with a workout. We like to say, “they’re safe, not easy!”
We offer Prenatal & Postnatal workouts in Private and Group settings. A Private is fully customized for you based on your goals, fitness level, and where you’re at in your pregnancy. Group Workouts are taught at the intermediate level with modifications and challenge options so everyone can do what’s best for them. Expand “View Details” in the schedule below for a full description of our Prenatal & Postnatal Group Workout.
We not only avoid exercises that can increase trauma to vulnerable areas like your abs and pelvic floor, but also focus on strengthening areas that will support a more comfortable pregnancy, delivery, and - just as important - recovery! All workouts are safe for any trimester and once you're 6-weeks postpartum.
Take care of your body and get those endorphins flowing so you feel happier and healthier! You can also look forward to meeting other moms to share your journey with.

“I took the Prenatal & Postnatal Pilates workout - it was exactly what I was looking for! Great workout for arms, lower body, obliques. It was not easy, but I felt safe as all exercises are tailored towards mom to be. So if you looking to stay in shape while pregnant I would highly recommend!”

“Absolutely loved the Prenatal & Postnatal Pilates format. My Trainer was extremely knowledgeable and met me where I was - which was craving a good, safe workout at 33 weeks pregnant! Wish I found this studio, class and teacher earlier in my pregnancy.”
“I love going to prenatal pilates classes at pilatesmith. It is a really fun workout! I’m someone that likes to do a lot of exercise when I am pregnant. These classes help me to isolate and exercise muscles that may otherwise get ignored. The studio is a peaceful neighborhood vibe. The teachers are down to earth and caring. I just love it.”
