Welcome to Pilates Glow
Our mission at Pilates Glow is to keep you committed to see your growth through consistency that builds towards strength and stability. We teach Pilates with a kindness and warmth that makes it accessible to everyone.
Why is Pilates Glow the right fit for you?
Pilates Glow is a great place to start your Pilates journey! Here at Pilates Glow we help everyone of all shapes, sizes, injuries and pain levels. We work with patients post-op following knee/hip replacements, spinal fusions and a wide range of skeletal pathologies such as scoliosis and osteoporosis. Pilates is a unique method of body conditioning that combines stretching and strengthening exercises. It strengthens and tones muscles, improves posture, increases flexibility and balance, and improves your concentration. Our instructors here are all trained with over 600+ hours and we continue our education every year, gaining more knowledge in our profession.
We have small group classes, privates, and apprentice sessions. We also offer infrared sauna sessions and we have showers.
Come get your GLOW
Here at Pilates Glow we love meeting new clients that we can teach our passion of Pilates to. We recommend anyone who has never done Pilates before to come in for a private session (50 minutes of one-on-one) before joining a class. This is to ensure that you understand the exercises and the equipment that you will be using and how to make any modifications if you have an injury or instability. Just with any workout, it takes some time to learn the moves and become familiar with the machines. We do recommend that you come in at least two times a week so that you can notice all your hard work paying off. You will see and feel the benefits within a couple of classes.

What to wear
For your Pilates class, opt for comfortable, form-fitting clothes like leggings and a snug top to allow full movement and ensure your instructor can see your form. Choose breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics to stay cool and dry. Avoid loose clothing that might interfere with your workout. Pilates is usually done barefoot or with non-slip grip socks, so no shoes are needed. Keep jewelry to a minimum, and tie back long hair for convenience. Following these tips will help you feel comfortable and prepared for your session. Men, please wear compression underwear.

What to expect from a Pilates class
In a Pilates class, you will perform exercises to make your body stronger and more flexible. Throughout the class, you will engage in a series of focused movements, emphasizing precise form and targeting specific muscle groups, often incorporating Pilates equipment such as the Reformer or Cadillac. The class starts with easy moves to warm up and ends with stretches to cool down. The instructor will always help you if you are new or need to do things differently because of your fitness level or any injuries. Just focus on your breathing and following the instructor's directions. It's a great way to get fit and feel good!
What our clients are saying
"Sarah Martin has been my Pilates instructor since the winter 2014. With her instruction I have progressed from the intermediate Pilates to advanced. In the fall of 2015 I had a double knee replacement. After my recovery I returned to Sarah’s Pilates studio and continued my workouts. Over the past two years my core strength and my fitness has continued to improve. Sarah has been cognizant of my knees before and after my replacement. She was able to make adaptations for my situation and we have been able to continue to progress rapidly as my knees healed. Now it is as if I never had bad knees and my fitness and form has never better." - Gail T
"Sarah is a wonderful person and outstanding Pilates instructor. She is kind, patient, and generous with her time. She is very aware of her clients' body mechanics and injuries and adjusts each lesson accordingly. She tailors the stretches and exercises to fit exactly what each client’s body needs. She even has made videos for me to help me remember exactly what and how to do my homework exercises. Sarah is always upbeat and makes each lesson very enjoyable. I can’t recommend her highly enough!" - Denise G
