Fun, welcoming energy and just the right amount of challenge to be found in every class. Peace of Mind Pilates was my first introduction to any group fitness and it's made a lasting impression that keeps me coming back. It is truly a supportive community of teachers and students.

Finding Stephanie's studio has changed my life! From the first class I took in February this year, and every class since, I have grown stronger and more confident and I had a good time doing it! The workouts are so empowering and yes hard, but so worth it!

★★★★★ — Donna, Jun 2024

Peace of Mind Pilates The Reformer….definitely the best experience I have ever had! Our instructor, Stephanie Allen Robinson, is incredible! She doesn’t take herself very seriously but she takes her job as an instructor very seriously! Her class is fun, motivational and challenging!

Your first barre class at Peace of Mind Pilates

New to barre? Almost everyone is their first time, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: barre blends small isometric holds and tiny pulses at a ballet barre with light weights and mat work — it's low-impact and joint-friendly, but it works muscles you didn't know you had, so a little shaking in your legs is the point, not a problem. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: fitted leggings and a top you can move in — nothing baggy, so the instructor can see your form. Grip socks: most barre studios require grip socks — bring a pair or check whether they sell them at the front desk; the grippy soles keep you steady during the pulses. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Barre is low-impact, so it suits most bodies and fitness levels — but if you're pregnant or working around an injury, check with a doctor and let your instructor know so they can offer modifications.
