INSPIRED PILATES FOR EVERYONE

DOWNTOWN PHOENIX, AZ

PRIVATE PILATES, DUETS, AND QUARTETS

We are currently offering Private Pilates, Duets, and Quartets. Private sessions and duet sessions are arranged by appointment. We encourage clients to contact us directly for scheduling appointments. Appointments can be requested through our account with WellnessLiving. If you would like to create an account, click here.

Quartets are small group training classes of 4 people to one teacher. People can enroll in classes online through the WellnessLiving Booking online application or with the WellnessLiving Achieve mobile app. Click here to see available class times and to enroll yourself into a session.

People new to Pilates should complete our complimentary Pilates Orientation, a private Pilates session, before enrolling in to a quartet. New students are also encouraged to complete 3 private sessions before starting quartets in order to assimilate into the class setting successfully. It is not a requirement. 

Please call or email us for inquiries and scheduling.

INSPIRED PILATES FOR EVERYONE

At Bird Dog Pilates, we believe the Pilates Method is for everyone. It is for all ages and all abilities. Pilates can be a stand-alone exercise program and it can also be a program to complement those training for athletic or competitive events.


The addition of Pilates to your fitness program, resistance training and/or cardio training, can strengthen your routine.

ARE YOU NEW TO PILATES?

If you have never done Pilates or have only done mat Pilates, we offer a complimentary Pilates Orientation. This is a private, one-on-one session designed to teach you about the Pilates Method and the delivery of the exercises. You will be oriented to the equipment, breathing technique, and Pilates exercises. It will also allow us to get to know you and your specific needs.

Stories of growth and achievement

I have never tried Pilates before coming to Bird Dog Pilates and Fitness is and I am so glad that I gave it a try! The help and support I've received from all the instructors have been instrumental in my enjoyment and understanding of the underlying principles of Pilates. I have been going for about a month now at this point and I plan to continue to come to private sessions as well as group sessions moving forward. Highly recommended!

Wes was a great teacher for my 1st group endeavor! Patient and cues to inspire. Nice studio, reformers and location-cafe around the corner:)

I have really enjoyed the last couple of months with Andrea. Each session has focused in different ways with a range of difficulty that causes me to stretch (pun intended) but never feels beyond my skill level. I look forward to my session each week. Andrea is always so warm, positive, and helpful with her coaching. The studio is always very clean with plenty of natural light. The music is a nice touch. I enjoy mixing in lessons with Wes as I always learn something new. I would def recommend Bird Dog Pilates and Fitness to a friend. Thanks, Josh

I’ve been practicing Pilates for about a year now. When I was back home in Phoenix for a trip, I wanted to stay active. Wes was so kind to keep me going and adjusted my schedule. Those two private sessions really helped me stay on track. I’ll definitely be back when I’m next in town!

I have been training with Wes for almost 2 years now. And it changed my relationship with my body. I am always looking forward to my training sessions, pilates makes me feel more whole, that I am not just my mind. It calms me down too.
