Getting Started

​

Do I need Pilates experience to start?

No. Many clients begin with little or no Pilates experience. We offer private sessions and small-group classes that allow instructors to meet you where you are and guide you safely as you build strength and confidence.

​

How do I get started?

The best way to get started is by booking a consultation. This allows us to learn more about your goals and recommend the most appropriate option, whether that’s private training, Pilates, or a combination of both.

​

Is your studio a good fit for beginners?

Yes. Our approach is intentionally supportive and adaptable. Many clients choose Vai Fitness because they want a more personal, less intimidating alternative to large group fitness environments.

​

Private Training & Pilates

​

Do you offer private training?

Yes. We offer private personal training and private Pilates sessions. These one-on-one sessions are fully individualized and designed around your goals, movement history, and experience level.

​

What’s the difference between private sessions and group classes?

Private sessions provide one-on-one attention and fully customized programming. Group classes follow a shared structure with individualized cues and hands-on instruction. Both are intentionally small, but private sessions offer the highest level of personalization.

​

Can I combine personal training and Pilates?

Yes. Many clients combine personal training and Pilates within their programming. Sessions are tailored to your goals rather than fixed service categories.

​

Classes & Studio Experience

​

How large are your classes?

Classes are intentionally small so instructors can provide individual guidance and ensure a supportive, focused environment.

​
