Prenatal Pilates in West LA
Pilates During Pregnancy in West LA
The regular work, modified for pregnancy by an experienced instructor
Pregnancy-safe Pilates at our Mar Vista studio. Rather than a separate prenatal class, an experienced instructor adapts the regular reformer and mat work to your stage of pregnancy — most precisely in a private or semi-private session. Doctor clearance is required before you start.
First class $29
Tell us you're pregnant when you book so we can plan the session around it.

How Pilates During Pregnancy Works Here
We don't run a separate prenatal class. Instead, an experienced instructor takes the regular reformer and mat work and adapts it to your stage of pregnancy — adjusting the spring load, the range, and the positions, and leaving out anything that doesn't feel right that day.
Modifications, not a separate class
The instructor changes the exercises for you — spring settings, positions, and range — inside the regular reformer and mat work.
One-on-one fits pregnancy best
A private or semi-private session gives the instructor room to adjust every exercise to how you feel each visit. Group classes are welcome too.
Doctor's clearance first
We ask that your doctor has cleared you to exercise before your first session, and that you tell us how you're feeling each time you come in.
What the work can do during pregnancy
- Work that adapts as your body changes each trimester
- Relief for the low-back and hip discomfort common in pregnancy
- Core and pelvic-floor strength carried through breath, not strain
- Posture support as your centre of gravity shifts
- A calm, low-impact way to keep moving while pregnant
- One-on-one attention, so every exercise is checked against how you feel that day
These are common experiences with gentle, well-modified movement — not a promise, and not a substitute for care from your doctor or a physical therapist.
What a session looks like
A quick check-in
How far along you are, how you're feeling that day, and anything your doctor has flagged. The session is planned around your answers.
Modified reformer & mat work
The regular exercises, adapted — side-lying, seated, standing and supported positions, with the work centred on breath, pelvic floor and posture.
A gentle finish
Stretches and slow breathing to wind down, and a note of anything to adjust next time.
