Frequently Asked Questions

Regardless of age, sex, fitness level, pain level, movement level, or disability, Pilates has benefits for every BODY. 

No, Pilates can be modified for all levels.  Movement heals. Pilates programs often start with instructing a client how to move with a new awareness of posture and core support.  We meet your body where it is on any given day. 

For Pilates mat classes, a thicker mat is available for students. Yoga students will often bring their own thinner Yoga mat to class.  Shoes are not required for Pilates or Yoga. Wear comfortable clothing that will allow your body to move. Water is available at the studio. 

This is a common question.  1x a week (consecutive weeks) is especially recommended for the intro private four pack.  Significant progress is achieved with weekly Pilates sessions. Some clients choose to come 2-3x/week and mix Reformer, Tower, and Mat classes, however initially you will certainly find benefit with weekly sessions, especially when adding a Pilates routine to other types of exercises programs (cardio, weight training, Yoga),

We currently accept cash or check at the studio.  Credit cards are now Accepted!

Once credit cards are accepted, you will be able to purchase your classes and packages online through MINDBODY.

Sign onto our MINDBODY Online Scheduler at link below. You can pay and reserve your spot online with a single class or a class package. 

Call Karly at 518-275-2644 If you are having difficulty reserving your spot in class. 

We request a 12 hour notice if you need to cancel your reserved spot in a class.  Log onto your account to cancel at least 12 hours in advance to “early cancel” your reservation and avoid being charged for the class.  “Late Cancels” (less then 12 hours) result in being charged for your session.  Please contact the instructor via cell or email (ask instructor preferred contact method) if you  can not cancel online. This will enable the instructor time to offer the spot to another client or decide if class is cancelled if minimum required is not signed up.

We require a minimum of two students to hold an equipment class (Reformer or Tower).  If the minimum is not met by 12 hours before class, the instructor may cancel class or reach out to the single person signed up and offer a discounted private session ($60 reg. $70).  If the student does not want the discounted private, they will not lose their class if class is cancelled by the instructor. 

We do not automatically follow the Bethlehem Central public school system’s lead when determining if the studio needs to close or class needs to be cancelled. In the event we do cancel classes due to the weather, the instructor will call or text private, duet, trio, or equipment clients.   

The primary way of notifying clients of cancellations is by:

1.) canceling classes in MINDBODY online scheduler, which you can view by clicking on link on HOME PAGE of www.freemovementpilates.com

2.)  sending out a constant contact email.
