"I've never done pilates before and was a bit nervous that I wouldn't be able to do some exercises because I have problems with one of my knees.
 
...I really appreciated how she was able to quickly make some exercises easier for me if I was having problems doing one.

She made me feel so welcome and is truly is such a great instructor... I will definitely be going back again to see her."
  • How quickly will I see results?
    This varies from person to person based on factors such as consistency, fitness level, and specific goals. Many people notice improvements in posture, core strength, and flexibility within a few weeks of regular practice. Over time, you can expect enhanced muscle tone, increased endurance, and better overall body awareness.
  • What if I have a chronic condition or special considerations?
    Inform your instructor of any chronic conditions or concerns during the initial assessment. Dynamic Pilates instructors are skilled at modifying movements and equipment usage to accommodate various health needs, ensuring your practice is both safe and effective.
  • Is Pilates suitable for older adults or beginners?
    Absolutely. Because Pilates can be scaled to any fitness level, it’s beneficial for beginners, seniors, and even those with limited mobility. Each exercise can be modified to accommodate individual needs and progress safely.
  • How does Pilates help improve posture and reduce stress?
    Posture: Pilates emphasizes core strength and correct muscle recruitment. By learning to properly engage the deep stabilizing muscles of your abdomen and back, you’ll naturally support a healthier spinal alignment. Stress Reduction: The mindful, controlled movements combined with focused breathing help calm the nervous system, reduce tension, and promote relaxation.
  • Can I book a private session with a partner or a friend?
    Absolutely! Private sessions at Dynamic Pilates can also be adapted for couples or friends who want to train together. This small-group environment (often referred to as a semi-private session) provides the best of both worlds: personalized guidance and the motivation of working out with a loved one.
  • What types of Pilates classes are offered at Dynamic Pilates?
    Dynamic Pilates provides most major styles of Pilates, ensuring there’s an option for everyone. Our offerings include: Mat Pilates: Focuses on core strength and flexibility using bodyweight exercises and small props. Reformer Pilates: Utilizes spring-loaded resistance on the Reformer to deepen your practice and target different muscle groups. Contemporary/Classical Fusion: Combines modern variations with the foundational principles of Joseph Pilates for a well-rounded, full-body workout. No matter which style you choose, each class is designed to be both safe and engaging, making it easier to tailor your workout to your individual goals.
  • Is Pilates safe for post-injury or post-surgery rehabilitation?
    Yes. One of the key benefits of private Pilates is its adaptability for post-rehabilitation and post-surgery clients. Instructors at Dynamic Pilates specialize in creating safe, gentle exercise plans that respect your healing process and gradually rebuild strength, mobility, and endurance.
  • Who is an ideal candidate for private Pilates sessions?
    Post-rehabilitation clients or those recovering from surgery Individuals seeking personalized attention or targeted workouts Those looking to improve posture, muscle recruitment, balance, and coordination People with specific injuries or health conditions that require modifications Anyone who prefers a tailored, one-on-one approach for optimal results
  • How do I get started with a private Pilates session at Dynamic Pilates?
    Simply book an appointment through the studio’s online booking system or by calling the Vancouver Pilates studio at 1103-750 West Broadway. Each session is by appointment only, ensuring you receive dedicated attention from an experienced instructor who will tailor the session to your needs.
  • I have an old injury—can I still do Beginner Pilates?
    Pilates can be a fantastic option for post-injury recovery, but it’s always a good idea to check with your healthcare provider first. Be sure to let your instructor know about any injuries so we can tailor exercises accordingly.
  • I’ve never done Pilates. Is this really for me?
    Absolutely. Our Beginner Pilates classes are designed with newcomers in mind. We’ll introduce the fundamentals step by step, so you’re never thrown into the deep end without a life jacket.
  • How long does it take to see results?
    It varies by person, but many folks notice improved posture and a bit more energy after just a few sessions. By the 10th class, you’ll likely feel a serious difference in strength and body awareness.
  • What’s the difference between Mat Pilates and Reformer Pilates?
    Mat Pilates focuses on bodyweight exercises using a mat (plus a few props here and there). Reformer Pilates uses a machine with springs and pulleys to add resistance. It’s great if you want an extra push or need more support for certain movements.
  • What should I wear and bring?
    Wear comfy, stretchy clothes—nothing too baggy that gets in the way. You don’t need to bring much else, just a water bottle and maybe socks with grip if you have ’em. We’ll supply the equipment.
  • How do I book a class or ask more questions?
    That’s easy—just head to our Book Now page or schedule a free 15-minute call. We’ll chat about your goals, answer any lingering concerns, and find the perfect spot for you in our schedule.
  • Do I need to be flexible or strong beforehand?
    Nope! If you could already bend like a pretzel or had a rock-solid core, you wouldn’t need Beginner Pilates. The whole idea is to help you build strength and flexibility—wherever you’re starting from.
  • Can I do Chair Pilates if I’m dealing with an injury?
    Always check with your healthcare provider first. Then, let your instructor know about any injuries or limitations so they can modify exercises appropriately. We’re all about safe, sustainable movement.
  • How does Chair Pilates differ from Mat or Reformer classes?
    Mat Pilates uses only your body weight (plus the occasional prop). Reformer Pilates relies on a spring-based carriage system. Chair Pilates has a pedal or pedals with springs you press down (or up) to create resistance. It’s more upright and can feel a bit more challenging for balance, which is exactly why so many people love it!
  • Do I need a certain level of strength or flexibility first?
    No prerequisites here. Whether you’re brand-new or an avid Pilates lover looking to switch things up, Chair Pilates meets you where you’re at.
  • How do I sign up?
    It’s easy—just book online or schedule a free 15-minute call to chat about your goals. We’ll help you find a spot that works with your schedule and introduce you to this awesome piece of equipment.
  • Is Chair Pilates beginner-friendly?
    Yes! The Chair’s pedals and springs can be adjusted for different fitness levels. That means we can make it super challenging if you’re craving a burn or dial it down if you’re easing in.
  • What should I wear?
    Comfortable workout clothes that let you move freely. Non-slip socks can be helpful for stability, but they’re not mandatory. If you have any concerns about footwear, talk to your instructor—they’ll point you in the right direction.
  • Is Movement Education the same as traditional Pilates?
    Not exactly. Our foundation is Pilates-based, but we go further by focusing on the how and why behind every exercise. Think of Movement Education like Pilates 2.0—where you learn to move smarter, not just harder.
  • How long before I see (or feel) a difference?
    Many people notice small wins within a few sessions—like standing a bit taller or feeling less tension in their shoulders. Over time, these small wins add up to big changes in posture, pain relief, and overall movement efficiency.
  • Is it okay if I’m a total beginner?
    Absolutely. In fact, starting with Movement Education can be the best way to prevent future injury and build a solid foundation. Beginner or seasoned pro, we tailor everything to your unique needs.
  • Do I need any special equipment?
    We use a range of Pilates equipment, like Reformers and other apparatus, but we’ll also give you plenty of tips that require nothing more than your own body. That way, you can take your new skills home, to the office—basically anywhere you go.
  • What if I already have an injury?
    Movement Education can help you work around and rehabilitate injuries by teaching proper form and alignment. Always check with your healthcare provider first, but many clients find this approach speeds up recovery and helps prevent re-injury.
  • Who can benefit from Movement Education?
    Everyone! From someone fresh off the couch looking to improve posture, to athletes wanting an edge in performance, or folks recovering from injuries. If you move (and we’re guessing you do), this is for you.
  • Can it help with chronic back pain?
    Many clients find relief using the Spine Corrector, thanks to gentle spine decompression and improved alignment. That said, we always recommend checking with your healthcare provider first, especially for serious or ongoing conditions.
  • What should I wear to a Spine Corrector class?
    Something that allows you to move easily—leggings or shorts, plus a fitted top so we can see your alignment. We usually go barefoot or wear grippy socks to help you stay stable on the curved surface.
  • Is Spine Corrector Pilates safe for beginners?
    Absolutely. This piece of equipment can be a fantastic intro to Pilates because it supports your back while guiding your posture. Let us know your comfort level, and we’ll modify the exercises so they’re just right for you.
  • What exactly is a Spine Corrector?
    It’s a Pilates apparatus shaped like a half barrel, designed to support the spine and ribs during exercises. You can stretch, strengthen, and stabilize your entire body while letting the equipment do the heavy lifting of positioning you correctly.
  • How does it differ from Reformer or Mat Pilates?
    On a Reformer, you work with spring-based resistance. On the Mat, you rely primarily on bodyweight. The Spine Corrector offers a unique curved support that’s ideal for opening up the chest and aligning the spine. We often mix and match different Pilates equipment based on your goals and comfort.
