PILATES CLASSES

Pilates Classes

We offer two types of Pilates at H2L Studio, Mat Pilates and Pilates Equipment (Reformer). Mat Pilates follows the Group Class Packages and Pilates Equipment has its own pricing options.

Private Lessons:
Private sessions are performed on various pieces of equipment and are tailored specifically to your goals and abilities. Semi-private lessons are a great way to share the cost and fun with friends. Private lessons can be on any of the equipment including the Pilates reformer, chair, tower and Cadillac. Please reach out to schedule these, they are dependent on the instructor’s availability.

Beginner Pilates Equipment
This class is the perfect place to start if you are new to Pilates, recently completed the Private Intro package or have some health concerns that may need modifications. The emphasis in the class will be on learning the fundamental Pilates exercises with special attention to proper alignment and technique. The class will be at a slower pace so that you can effectively and safely learn the equipment and the Pilates method while still experiencing all the core strengthening and flexibility benefits.

Pilates Equipment
This class is geared towards the client who has developed confidence in the beginner class can safely adjust the equipment at the direction of the instructor and has a good understanding of the fundamental exercises and possible modifications they may need. The class will be a more choreographed group of exercises to create flow from one exercise to the next with emphasis on increasing the challenge and scope of exercises. Prior Pilates experience or completion of beginner classes is preferred.

Advanced Pilates Equipment
This class is geared to the client who has demonstrated a good understanding of the Pilates Method, has developed a deeper mind/body core connection, and is ready for a more challenging class with a quicker flow between exercises. Clients should have a working knowledge of the equipment and can make adjustments at the direction of the instructor. Prior Pilates experience is required for this class.

Mat Pilates
One of our Group Classes, Mat Pilates follows the same principles as all Pilates Classes but without the machines or equipment. Using just a mat, your body weight, and some small props, you’ll be guided through an all-level workout built on a core-focused exercise method performed on a mat, emphasizing strength, flexibility, and body awareness through controlled movements and breath. Mat Pilates is a low-impact workout.

“What’s the best thing about doing Pilates? Everything! At H2L Studio you can expect a variety of classes, a variety of instructors with their own personal touch and a variety of smiling faces that great you when you get there and a workout that you look forward to having again when you return.”

Pilates FAQ — H2L Studio (Mechanicsburg, PA)

What’s the difference between Mat Pilates and Equipment (Reformer) Pilates?

Mat Pilates classes are part of our Group Fitness Class Packages and appear on the schedule as “Mat Pilates.” These are a great, affordable way to get familiar with Pilates using body weight and small props — no large machines. Classes take place on a Pilates or Barre mat.

Reformer (Equipment) Pilates uses the Pilates Reformer Machine, a spring-based apparatus that adds resistance to your movements. Because we only have 5 Reformers, these classes are more limited and require specialized training from instructors.

Reformer Pilates is priced separately from our group fitness classes.

I have low back pain — will Reformer Pilates help?

Yes! The Reformer is an excellent option for low back issues.
Classes start with you lying on your back, which provides immediate support for the spine and allows you to move safely within your range of motion. The resistance and support from the Reformer can be especially beneficial for back care and core stability.

I’m out of shape — can I still do Pilates?

Absolutely! Everyone starts somewhere, and Pilates is designed to meet you where you are.
We recommend beginning with our Beginner Pilates Equipment Workshops, which are designed to help you feel comfortable on the machine. From there, you can progress into Group Reformer Classes at your own pace.

What if I’ve never taken a Reformer class before?

If you’re brand new to Pilates or haven’t used the Reformer before, we highly suggest starting with a Beginner Workshop or a Private Intro Lesson. These will teach you how to safely and effectively use the machine before joining a group class.

What are Intro Lessons?

Intro Lessons are one-on-one private sessions where an instructor will guide you through the Reformer machine, proper form, and modifications specific to your body and goals.
These sessions aren’t always listed on the schedule, so please email, message us in the Momence app, or text 717-897-6192 to schedule one.

How do I schedule a private Pilates session?

Private sessions are based on instructor availability.

What if I have scoliosis?

Pilates — especially on the Reformer — can be incredibly beneficial for scoliosis. Many of our clients with scoliosis say it’s one of the few things that consistently brings them relief.
Start with Beginner Private Sessions to ensure you’re supported and safe, then work your way into Group Equipment Classes when ready.
