Difference of Private Pilates Lessons vs Group Studio Classes
It may be a recent trend for those newly adults with adult money to spend but the origins of Pilates is still fairly new and last time it was trending in Los Angeles was back when DVD fitness was a big hit, in the early 1990s.
Here at MVNT Studio, we take a different approach. This post will walk you through why our Pilates-based rehabilitation actually works—especially when it’s personalized, consistent, and rooted in your unique recovery needs.
The Big Time Differences
Movement is the next health craze that actually is much needed in the westernized world we live in. Our 8-12 hour days of sitting and driving have not done our bodies well and it shows when we travel to countries that work-life balance is obvious. This is going to break down some differences between studio classes and private training to help you find the best for your unique body and goals.
Classes vs Privates
One note is that either choice is beneficial in the same way muscles are worked but what about everything else?
One trainer to 10-20 students VS One trainer to one client
Sometimes form correction but majority verbal corrections VS Hands on form correction
Doing the hardest routine that the strongest student can do VS doing what works for you and your body as easy as it may look
Go to class and get a routine done in and out VS getting to know your body and your teacher so that you can succeed beyond the studio
Learning form corrections with verbal cues VS learning form corrections hands on with props with adjustments and specific techniques for your body
Building a strong foundation in your body vs Making a strong foundation through life
These are whimsical for some of the younger clients reading this but these are some of the main reasons clients choose one over the other into their 30s, 40s and beyond. So take your 20s with the fun classes but reassess what works for you and your goals for life and the future too.
How Our Studio Differs from PT and Pilates
Combining pilates, holistic health, corrective exercise and physical therapy aware procedures we create a plan and routine for you to do that helps your injury, your compensation patterns, and muscular imbalances that may be a cause of tension in other parts of your body. This combined, focused and developed work not only helps you reduce pain but allows you to reduce re-injury, prevent future setbacks and plan to be healthier than you’ve ever been before!
Our MVNT Approach
A deep dive on our approach is in a previous post. Our MVNT method in summary focuses on all your past history, your lifestyle that may increase inflammation, and your goals and movement needs day to day.
These factors in mind develop into our full MVNT practice. Involved with in person or virtual pilates based training, following client education with an at home practice to continue daily. These become the stepping stones so that once each is met in ways that pain is reduced we continue to return your body to the abilities of it’s fullest potential while preventing further pain and discomfort that may involve more corrective exercises for imbalances in your musculature. Once each step is achieved we slowly progress to the movements the spine is able to do and challenge your areas of issue so that we provide the guidance and skills so that those movements no longer become an issue!
Our goal is to get you back to moving as your best self while preventing future set backs. So if this was informative to you and may interest you in becoming a client with me. Find our studio and see us for a consultation any day.
