Private lineage-based Pilates
in Sparta, NJ

Most movement asks you to work out. Here, we work in, with attention, with control, with intention.

Not a group class. Just you, your experienced teacher, and a practice built entirely around your body.

A woman with long hair doing an inverted Pilates pull-up on a Pilates Cadillac Reformer. She is holding onto a horizontal bar with her hands and her body is parallel to the ground.

Why one-on-one?
The difference is understanding.

In a group class, attention is divided. The work gets simplified to fit the room. Here, it’s entirely yours. Every movement observed, adjusted, and explained, so you know not just what, but why.


20+ Years
Two decades of experience. Teaching one-to-one and to a group setting.


Lineage
Comprehensively trained in the lineage-based method — Joseph Pilates’ original Controlology — with continuing study across its first-generation teachers.


Truly private
Always 1:1, by appointment, with the same instructor


Especially right for you if…

• You’re new and want to learn at a pace set for you

• You felt lost in a group reformer class

• You want real expertise, not a crowded schedule

• You’re returning after injury, surgery, or physical therapy

• You’re managing back pain or chronic tightness

“I’ve been working with Dana for over a year. I’m 71 years old and have always been a little stiff. I’m so much more flexible thanks to Dana. Stand straighter, better balance and overall feel better. Highly recommend Dana for anyone who wants to feel younger and move more easily.”

— Steven W.
