Pilates By Bernadette

What a ride Q1 has been 🤸‍♀️

Every moment of this first quarter was filled with energy, growth, and so much joy. Not even the depths of winter could dim a life rooted in Pilates, community, and connection 🤎

From beautiful firsts and unexpected surprises to birthdays and special moments that set the tone for the year—this season has been nothing short of magical. And the best part? It’s only the beginning.

Grateful for every single one of you who made it so special. Can’t wait to flow into spring together—stronger, brighter, and with even more laughter ahead 🌸

Spring is nature’s way of saying “let’s partyyy!”… agree? 💫

BIG happy news!!! 🥳✨

My first blog is officially live and featured on Merrithew’s blog, and this one truly means a lot to me.

Weekend highlight! 🌟

This past Saturday, I had the pleasure of hosting Beth Gibbs-Bartel, Merrithew’s CRO, and her husband Roger for a semi-private session at my studio.

I’m always honored when someone makes the trip from HO — and even more touched when they bring their partner along for the experience. 💛

Roger left me the sweetest google review (sharing it below!), and I’m still smiling.

Swipe to see some behind-the-scenes moments ➡️✨

Thank you, Beth and Roger, for spending part of your weekend with me — it truly meant a lot to me! 🙏

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

" I had the pleasure of a semi private with Bernadette recently. My own pilates journey began 7 years ago, and I have worked with so many wonderful Stott trained instructors. Bernadette is at the top of that list now. She made the session fun, balanced, challenging, and complete. I would recommend Pilates by Bernadette to anyone who wishes to elevate their experience. 5 stars!"

Quality over Quantity ✅

If you’ve ever taken a crowded reformer class and felt a little lost, you’re not alone.

Our studio is intentionally small — just 6 premium reformers — so you’re always seen, supported, and guided by certified instructors.

We believe in quality over quantity, mindful movement over chaos, and precision over speed.

This is Pilates done properly.

We’re still riding the high from this past Saturday’s Anniversary Celebration by the Lake — it was such a beautiful morning, and one we won’t forget anytime soon! Honestly, we’re still a little hung over from all the joy (the good kind!) — the energy, the smiles, and the love are still lingering in our hearts and minds.🤸‍♀️🫶🍾
