Pilates as a Practice of Coming Home to Yourself
There was a time when my body felt like a stranger, tight, disconnect, and hard to trust.
Pilates didn’t just make me stronger; it taught me how to listen and now that’s how I teach.
We slow down.
We pay attention.
We build strength from awareness, not force.
My students aren’t coming to me because they’re chasing the perfect body. They want to feel at home in their bodies instead of feeling like their bodies are working against them. They want to learn how to control, nurture, and heal from inside out.
Whether you’re recovering from injury, feeling stiff and out of sync, or simply want movement that feels good…
You belong here.
— Tamara Burkett, Certified Pilates Instructor
Is This Right for You?
You don’t need to be fit to start. You just need to be ready to begin.
You’re New to Pilates
No experience needed. We start where you are and build from there.
You’re Returning After a Break
Life happens. We’ll ease back in, while discovering your capabilities.
You Want Real, Lasting Strength
Your priority is functional strength that supports everything you love to do. Aesthetics is the side benefit.
You’re Managing Pain or Injury
We work closely with your care team and adapt every session to what feels safe.
You’re Stressed & Depleted
Pilates is as much about nervous system regulation as muscle work.
You’ve had a C-section
Pilates is a great practice to bring feeling back to your midsection.
What to Expect
Your first session is about discovering — no pressure, no performance.
01
We Talk First
Before we move, we talk. Your history, goals, what feels hard, what feels good.
02
Identify Best Path Forward
Mobile and open enough to try group, or does your body require one on one attention?
03
Gentle, Intentional Movement
We move slowly, with awareness. We allow our bodies to organize and learn to recruit new muscles.
04
You Leave Feeling Better
Not exhausted. Not sore. Taller, more connected, and a little more at home in your body.
What Students Say

“I came in with lower back pain that had been with me for years. Twelve weeks later, I ran my first 5K without pain. Tamara changed my relationship with my body.”
— Rachel M., private client, 18 months
“
“I was nervous to try Pilates because I’m not ‘the fitness type.’ Tamara made me feel so welcome. This is genuinely the first exercise I’ve ever looked forward to.”
— Diane K., group class participant
