Pilates

Alameda, CA

Three women are exercising in a studio with a brick wall and a large floral mural. One woman is jumping, another is on a treadmill, and the third is standing and smiling.
  • A light blue, scalloped-edged circular shape on a white background.

    The magic is the method.

    The apparatus is the whole Pilates approach — not just the mat, not just the reformer. Classical Pilates has the power to reform the body and support long-term movement health, meeting you exactly where you are and taking you somewhere you didn't know you could go.

MY COACHING METHOD

  • Orange starburst shape with multiple points

    Personalized

    Every body is different. We meet where you are.

  • Blank orange badge with scalloped edges

    Classical

    Pilates is based on a set of exercises that form a basis for all movements. Trust in the method.

  • Empty blue circular frame with no content inside.

    Playful

    It is totally okay to laugh sometimes—this is serious but we don’t have to be.

where to find me

Private & Duet Sessions — Ballena Bay

By appointment, Charlie teaches sessions out of her studio at Ballena Bay — steps from the water, with a view of San Francisco across the Bay. Up to three people by appointment. A duet (or a… tri-ette?) can be a wonderful way to share the experience with a friend, with all the focused attention of a private session and a little more room to laugh (as needed).

Jumpboard Classes — KIN Pilates, Park Street

Charlie also teaches jumpboard classes at KIN Pilates, above School of Rock on Park Street in Alameda every Monday at 10 am.
