Private Sessions

This is how to begin your journey at KO Pilates. Dive deep with personalized, one‑on‑one attention from Karin, Kayla or Apprentice Teacher. Whether in‑studio or virtual, each session is tailored to your needs, your goals, and the way your body moves. Sessions are typically 55 minutes, with 30‑minute options available for added flexibility.

Private Sessions also serve as the Initial Assessment for clients preparing to join a Class or Open Studio sessions, ensuring you feel confident and supported from your very first group session.

If your preferred day or time isn’t listed, please call the studio at 559‑955‑7404.

Cancellation Policy: If you need to cancel, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice so another student can take your place—no fee will be charged. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before class will incur the full session fee.

Essentials to Intermediate Class

Your starting point in Classical Pilates and your path forward. Learn the Foundation repertoire exactly as Joseph Pilates designed it, building core strength, alignment, breath, and control. As your confidence grows, Intermediate I exercises are layered in with new movements, smoother transitions, and a steadier tempo. Ideal for new clients and anyone ready to progress with guidance.

Everyone begins with an Initial Assessment (55-minute private session) because your body deserves individualized attention from the start. This one‑on‑one session lets us understand your alignment, movement patterns, and goals so your first class feels clear, safe, and truly supportive of your long‑term health.

Each class is limited to 4 students, ensuring personalized attention. If a session is full, we’re happy to add you to the waitlist. To reserve your spot, payment is required in advance. Be sure to reserve online, in person, or by contacting the studio at 559-955-7404.

Cancellation Policy: If you need to cancel, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice so another student can take your place—no fee will be charged. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before class will incur the full class fee.


Open Studio Sessions

Similar to a typical class, but with a twist. Under a teacher’s watchful eye and direction, you’ll work out and progress at your own pace, making individual connections in your body.  Join us in person or tune in virtually. Arrive any time during the Open Studio time block, stay as long as you would like to get your workout in and/or observe. Intro plans (3 or more private sessions) or the Essentials to Intermediate I classes are a pre-requisite to joining our open studio sessions.

Intermediate I Class

Take your Classical Pilates practice to the next level. This class moves you into the Intermediate I repertoire with flowing transitions, a steady tempo, and deeper challenges to strength, control, and coordination. Designed for clients who understand the Foundation work and are ready to move with confidence. Open Studio clients are welcome to check in from time to time to refine technique and bring fresh precision back to their practice. Every age and stage is welcome.

The KO Pilates Mentorship Academy
Your home base as a working teacher.
Certification is the beginning, not the finish line. The Mentorship Academy gives teachers an ongoing, in-person resource for clients, injuries, and movement questions. It includes monthly in-studio workshops, virtual Q&A, and direct Voxer access to Karin. It's a community built on sharing, problem-solving, and those "ah-ha" moments that turn good teachers into great ones.
Join the Mentorship Academy

Private Sessions for Teachers

Let’s get started!

There are two ways to begin at KO Pilates. Both start with personalized attention, because your body deserves it from day one.

Joining KO Pilates
Everyone enters our studio with an Initial Assessment, a 55-minute private session. This one-on-one time lets us understand your alignment, movement patterns, and goals, so your first class feels clear, safe, and supportive of your long-term health. Most clients stay in Essentials for 3–6 months as they build strength, confidence, and familiarity with the apparatus.

Intro Package Special
Three Private Sessions for $250 with Karin or $199 with Kayla. These sessions introduce you to the Classical Pilates method and give you time to build confidence, learn the apparatus, and receive personalized guidance.

Individual Private Session Rates

  • $99 with Karin

  • $75 with Kayla

  • $50 with Tiffanie or Shandon (Apprentice Teachers)

We also offer duet and trio Private Sessions for friends who want to train together.

Your Path Forward
Once you've completed the Intro Package or Essentials, you can continue with Private Sessions, move into Open Studio, or join one of our classes, depending on your goals and readiness.

“In 10 sessions you’ll feel the difference, in 20 sessions you’ll see the difference, in 30 sessions you’ll have a whole new body.”

— Joseph Pilates

Classical Pilates (Contrology), designed by Joseph Pilates, emphasizes suppleness, natural grace, and skill. It trains the body to move from the center, connecting mind and body for control. Beyond a workout, it’s a skill set that leaves you energized and connected.

At KO Pilates, our fully equipped studio offers Private Sessions, Open Studio Sessions and Classes. Whether in-person or virtual, progress at your own pace, our teachers’ guidance ensures corrections for an optimal Pilates experience. Welcome to your new lifestyle!

  • "It happened again! I can't believe it.  I've been waking up with horrible back pain the past few days, but after last night's Pilates class, I woke up pain free!  After battling with pain and seeing a chiropractor for the past ten years, I'm truly excited to see what Pilates can do!  Thank you so much!"

  • "This Pilates studio has great equipment. I have enjoyed learning the different exercises and find it amazing how certain muscle groups can be targeted. Karin is so patient and helpful. As a beginner, I really appreciate the time she takes to help me learn Pilates exercises. Everything she has taught me so far has helped my back issues tremendously."
