Saturday Pilates - Teaser

The advanced Saturday Pilates class at 11am is a hit! I've received feedback that I look forward to the day when I can announce a weekly advanced class to the schedule. For now, every 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month we'll continue the class. I stress that only experienced/well-practiced Pilates students take this class and you'll have a wonderful time and see amazing results.
Wow! Pilates is 3x a week! Go for it! Next class is 2/28 - see you there~ Lisa

6-Pack Pilates

Because the Pittsburgh Steelers won Superbowl XLIII, I am offering a special to new clients: Six - 60 minute Private Pilates sessions for $43 each. This Super - offer is good through Friday, 2/13/2009. It's our own version of a stimulus package for Pilates. Call 412-983-7818 or act now at http://www.upstretchpilates.com/.

Welcome Back!

I'm so glad to be back in the studio and class room. I'm looking to begin the Saturday morning class at 11AM, for anyone interested, please contact me. This is an internediate/advanced level class, perfect for anyone with prior Pilates experience, too. It's fast-paced and about 50 minutes, so you can towel-off, be changed and on the road by noon.

Maddie is 3 months - time goes by so fast. She loves it at the gym so I'm back to my full load of lessons and classes. Want a private lesson? I have my own "bailout" lesson package: 5 - 30 minute sessions for $140. The offer expires 2/6/09, so act fast! You don't have to fit all your lessons in by that time either, it's just a good deal to get you back into Pilates-mode!

See you at the studio!

Pilates Resumes in January '09

Maddie is 10lbs 7 oz and 20.5 ins. at 1 month. She's growing fast and needs me so much right now. I've made the decision to continue my maternity leave through December. It would not be wise to resume 4 weeks after delivery, per EVERYONES advice. I hope you have an awesome holiday and I wish a prosperous New Year for all of us!

Maddie has arrived!!

6lbs. 14oz. 18"
On Thursday, October 30th at 5:12 pm, Lisa and her family welcomed Madeline Louise into the world. Everyone is at home resting and recovering extremely fast, must be due to Pilates! Maddie will quickly get up to speed on Pilates training and be joining her sister Lily and Mom at the studio.

Thank you for all of your best wishes, support and patience during Lisa's short recovery and maternity absence.
