We will challenge you to move in new ways, increasing strength, flexibility, balance, and grace. The practice of pilates is known for its dynamic ability to transform body and spirit. We strive to create this experience for you, each time you visit the studio.

Fletcher Pilates® was developed by Ron Fletcher from his study of the original, classical method, taught directly to him by Joseph and Clara Pilates and from his years as a professional dancer with Martha Graham. Ron expanded the classical repertoire, studying breath, and adapting equipment work for the floor and standing. He created movement sequences as variations on themes, infused with emphasis on both the artistic and physical aspects of pilates exercise.

Ron Fletcher holds the honor of being one of the five First Generation Master Teachers of the Pilates Method.
