About Us

Our Philosophy…

Pilates Durango is a boutique studio committed to mindful, intelligent movement. We believe Pilates is more than a workout—it’s a way of learning how your body moves so you can build strength, balance, and ease that lasts beyond the studio. Whether you’re recovering from injury, gearing up for ski season, or navigating a movement pattern that causes pain or discomfort, we help you make meaningful connections in your body to support your goals.

We specialize in contemporary Pilates (rooted in the Classical Pilates Method), informed by modern biomechanics, not fitness trends. While you’ll certainly feel challenged, we prioritize purposeful movement over fast-paced choreography. Our Senior instructors complete comprehensive 500–600-hour training programs that include anatomy, observation, practice hours, and supervised teaching - not short-format or introductory certifications. This ensures your sessions are grounded in safety, precision, and true expertise.

Today, many studios offer high-intensity, reformer-based workouts that resemble gym classes more than Pilates. These classes often focus on endurance-based “burns,” which can feel satisfying in the moment but don’t always support long-term functional improvement. At Pilates Durango, we’re committed to the method’s roots and to modern scientific understanding of the body—bringing you thoughtful, effective movement designed for real-life strength, balance, and mobility.

We interested in the WHY behind movement and educate your bodies on how to make smarter, more effective movement choices.  Through our classes or private sessions our goal is to educate you in order to improve how you feel day to day, increase athletic performance, avoid injuries and feel the healing benefits The Pilates Method offers.
