"I must be right. Never an aspirin. Never injured a day in my life. The whole country, the whole world should be doing my exercises. They'd be happier."
-Joseph Pilates in 1965, age 86
The Pilates method was developed by legendary German athlete and physical rehabilitation trainer, Joseph Pilates in the 1920's. It is a powerful form of exercise and movement education that offers clients increased flexibility and function, improved body-mind awareness, core strength and enhanced breathing and balance. The Pilates method contains more than 300 specifically designed exercises for full body conditioning. After one lesson, most find they are so eager for more.

Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness.

Jyl teaches private, duet, and small group equipment Pilates sessions utilizing reformers with towers, stability chair, ladder barrel, orbit, and small props as well as mat Pilates classes. Her lifelong study of movement enables her to tailor her lessons to the body being taught. This produces a lesson that is challenging, empowering, and encouraging so the client can truly make the Pilates method their own. Jyl has taught clients from age 13 to 81.
