Pilates Q&A
Do I need Pilates experience to start?
No. Every new client starts with a private intro session, and JoAnn builds your program from there, whether you’re brand new or have practiced for years.
Is Pilates safe if I have back pain or osteoporosis?
Often, yes. JoAnn has specialized training in Pilates for post-rehabilitation and reformer work for osteoporosis, and adapts every exercise to your body. Check with your doctor first if you’re under active care.
What’s the difference between mat and reformer Pilates?
Mat Pilates uses your body weight on the floor. The reformer and Cadillac use springs to add support or resistance, which makes it easier to learn good form and to progress safely.
