“After my lumbar fusion I was terrified to exercise again. The Clinical Pilates at Holsman changed everything. My instructor knew exactly how to work around my restrictions and I’m stronger now than before my surgery.”

— Patricia M., Lyndhurst

Common Questions

Pilates Q&A

No experience is needed. We welcome complete beginners and offer introductory private sessions to learn the foundational principles and movements before joining group classes. Our instructors will always meet you at your current level and progress at a pace that’s right for you.

Mat Pilates uses your own bodyweight and is performed on a mat on the floor. Reformer Pilates uses a spring-resistance apparatus (the Reformer) that supports and challenges the body simultaneously, enabling a much wider range of exercises and intensity levels. Most clients find Reformer more effective for rehabilitation and body sculpting, while Mat is an excellent complement and more accessible for group settings.

Yes — and this is one of the strongest benefits we offer. Our Clinical Pilates program is designed to work alongside your physical therapy plan. We coordinate directly with your PT to ensure your Pilates sessions reinforce your treatment goals and that no contraindicated movements are included. Many of our Pilates clients are active or recent Holsman PT patients.

Standard fitness Pilates classes are generally not covered by health insurance. However, Clinical Pilates sessions that are supervised by a licensed physical therapist and medically necessary may be billable under your PT benefits. We recommend calling us at (201) 932-2691 and we can clarify what may apply to your specific plan and situation.

Wear comfortable, form-fitting athletic wear — avoid loose clothing that can bunch up on the Reformer. Grip socks are required for apparatus classes (we have them available for purchase at the studio). Bring water and arrive 10 minutes early for your first session to complete intake paperwork and meet your instructor.
