How to Start Your Private Pilates Lessons with Pilates &

Private Pilates lessons give you room to focus on your goals, learn how your body moves, and build a practice that works for you. You can start with a short questionnaire and free consultation through Pilates &, or book an assessment and private session directly at Coal Harbour Community Centre.

Getting started with Pilates &

1/ Complete the confidential questionnaire

Take about two minutes to complete the questionnaire. Simple questions about your goals, experience, and movement concerns help me prepare for our conversation. Share what you’re comfortable sharing at this stage; we can discuss the details privately.

2/ Have a free consultation

After I review your questionnaire, we’ll schedule a free 15-minute consultation. You can tell me what you hope to gain from private lessons, ask questions, and decide whether virtual or in-person sessions are the right fit.

If you are recovering from an injury, let me know about any movement guidance or restrictions you have received from your healthcare professional. I can help you adapt your Pilates practice, but a Pilates lesson is not a medical assessment or treatment.

3/ Schedule your sessions

After the consultation, schedule your first private session. Because we’ve already talked about your goals, we can use more of the paid appointment for movement, instruction, and finding appropriate modifications.

Prefer to book directly? You can book an Assessment & Private Session at Coal Harbour Community Centre without completing the questionnaire or having a consultation first. Your first 60-minute appointment begins with a private conversation and movement assessment. We’ll use the time remaining for introductory exercises and modifications.

Both routes give you space to be heard and to start at an appropriate level. Every appointment ends at its scheduled time. If we identify more to work on, we can plan a follow-up session.

4/ Make the most of your session

Private lessons give you the opportunity to get the instruction you need to achieve your goals. Bring your questions, tell me when a movement does not feel right, and let me know what you would like to practise between sessions.

If you want to share your lesson with another person, we can arrange a duet. A duet works best when both participants are at a similar Pilates level, have compatible movement needs, and can maintain the same schedule.

5/ Other needs, issues, or questions

If you have questions, please use the Contact Us form below. I aim to respond by email within 24 hours. If your question is time-sensitive, include your phone number and the best time of day to reach you.

Ready to begin? Complete the questionnaire for a free consultation, or book your first Assessment & Private Session at Coal Harbour Community Centre.
