Nurture Pilates recognizes that as living beings we move constantly; even when we are sitting still, or sleeping, we are breathing, our hearts are pumping blood, our cells are dividing, and the subatomic particles that make up our matter are spinning and interchanging. To move, simply, is to live. And to move simply — with efficiency and ease — is the way to stay vital and happy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/1626558836293-NUA712I05Y83WF08HETY/IMG-2536.jpg What it Means to be a Nurture Pilates Client - Bodily Integrity “Pilates is complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit.” Joseph Pilates, German-American bodybuilder, inventor, and creator of the Pilates Method of Contrology (Pilates) Nurture Pilates believes that all bodies are sacred spaces and deserve to be treated as such. Pilates as a physical fitness method does not brutalize bodies by pushing them beyond their natural anatomical and kinesthetic limits, rather it honors and respects how individual bodies are made; and as such, Nurture Pilates is dedicated to teaching techniques that celebrate what individual bodies can do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/72873186-5440-4bfa-8d14-daaec8b74bb0/IMG_5730.jpeg What it Means to be a Nurture Pilates Client - Care “Poetry is not a luxury.” Audre Lorde, American writer, feminist, womanist, librarian, and civil rights activist “A gardener’s education begins with the realization that we are never exempt from the needs and requirements of care. It is formed through sustained attention to and responsibility for the places that give us life.” Norman Wirzba, American theologian Nurture is about caring for and encouraging growth and development in ourselves and the world about us. Nurture Pilates values your growth and development, and is dedicated to teaching techniques that respect you as a body and honor your movement goals and needs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/1626568200884-XY0CEPRO9K56GHS5S8T8/Joe+Pilates+on+the+Cadillac.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/1749840521398-01JKZOKLAVHXZ4NN6F09/unsplash-image--fkLJ9Ws5XQ.jpg https://www.nurturepilates.com/book-a-lesson daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.nurturepilates.com/our-instructors daily 0.75 2026-02-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/eb1ecbb5-9da1-4db7-99db-4128cef85ebc/IMG-2940.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/eee3cee5-c3b8-4cfb-b3a7-129bc09327af/IMG_1775.jpeg https://www.nurturepilates.com/what-we-offer daily 0.75 2025-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/4a2d4ba5-6738-44ab-965b-beb2157a8767/IMG_5978.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/138e5720-9536-4eae-a9f1-4626737737c0/Students+at+Jacob%27s+Pillow.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/2155ab86-a117-47fe-a1b8-7e4ea6ed4e6c/IMG-4457.jpg What We Offer - Reformer The Reformer is perhaps the most widely-known piece of Pilates equipment, invented by Joseph Pilates, the creator of the Pilates method of physical fitness. Lessons on the Reformer remove the tendency to use inertia to propel the body through space, so that clients develop true strength in all the muscles of their bodies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/1633725463966-LY15GM62ZY5PLE007ELC/IMG-3181.jpg What We Offer - Chair Joseph Pilates, a New Yorker, developed the Chair for people with limited living space. Originally a piece of living room furniture that converted to a piece of exercise equipment, the Chair is now staple equipment in Pilates studios. Ideal for use by expectant mothers because it accommodates the big tummies of the second and third trimesters, it also the basis of a full-spectrum Pilates workout. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/1626567511393-9J1ZZENFT7A9R899RXW3/IMG-2550.jpg What We Offer - Mat A juicy workout. Joseph Pilates developed his mat workout to train boxers and police in his native Germany. The mat workout uses body-weight resistance to build strength and challenges bodies to learn to work with gravity to control momentum to make precise and flowing movements. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/ce6004b2-c10c-497c-8403-012d8ad0b221/IMG-4445.jpg What We Offer - Cadillac/Tower Like the Reformer and the Chair, the Cadillac and its little sister, the Tower, use spring tension to challenge the body to move fluidly and with precision. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ea4784619f1244e79bea68/53dad28c-7ea0-488e-a837-ea9082752777/pelvic-floor1.png What We Offer - Pelvic Floor Health From Pre-Natal to Menopause and Beyond Pelvic floor strength is vital to human health and fitness throughout all stages of our life.
