Pre-Natal Pilates Quartets
At Helios Center for Movement, we offer the option of small group training to those students who have practiced Pilates pre-pregnancy with our instructors.  Quartets are run at a "Practice" level of class and move at a pace that is consistent with our group classes but with a focus on safety and modifications for exercises.  If you are new to Pilates, we offer the option of our Introductory Package of private sessions.  From there, our instructors can recommend the proper course of practice to promote the safety of both you and your baby throughout the duration of your pregnancy.  Doctor's note required.
