PRESENTED BY MARY JANE’S PILATES STUDIO

Core & Cackles: Pilates That Makes You Stronger AND Funnier

If you think Pilates is just stretching on a fancy mat, think again-it’s the only workout where you can wobble, giggle, and find muscles you never knew existed, all before breakfast! Pilates: where “core values” mean holding a plank longer than your last relationship, and “rolling like a ball” is actually encouraged. Come for the stretch, stay for the laughs, and leave with abs that might just show up to the party

Whether you’re new or experienced, Pilates delivers results, elevating your fitness and even your yoga practice. Ready to feel stronger and more aligned?
