Mary Jane's Pilates Studio! 

💙 Robin shared “I started Pilates in 2024 at Mary Jane’s Pilates Studio and in a few months I am stronger in upper and lower body, stronger and more flexible in my core and have more confidence in my balance. Each class is designed in such a way that Mary Jane is able to give individualized attention as needed. I highly recommend this studio!!

At Mary Jane's Pilates Studio, your journey begins with personalized private lessons, ensuring you master the fundamentals. Once ready, you'll transition to intimate group sessions with a maximum of 4 participants. This unique approach allows for individualized attention and optimal progress, whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your practice. 👇️
