Mat Pilates

Mat Pilates builds strength and control using your own bodyweight with an emphasis on breath, alignment, and deep core engagement. It is accessible, effective, and a strong foundation for anyone who wants to move better in daily life while building a toned, capable body.

What to Expect

Classes focus on controlled sequences that train the core, glutes, hips, and posture muscles while improving stability and mobility. You can expect intentional pacing, clear instruction, and options that make the class accessible without making it feel watered down.

Props may be used to support form, add challenge, or create variety. The goal is not to rush through repetitions. The goal is to move with precision, control, and a strong connection to breath.

Heated and Non-Heated Options

Solterra offers both heated and non-heated Mat Pilates options. Heated sessions are designed to support flexibility and muscle release while maintaining a controlled, strength-focused class structure. Non-heated sessions prioritize precision, safety, and technique with a consistent environment that supports clean movement and better control.

Who It’s For

Mat Pilates is ideal if you want a consistent weekly practice that builds strength without equipment dependency. It is also an excellent starting point if you are new to Pilates and want to learn the fundamentals before progressing.

Good to Know

Bring a mat if the class description indicates it is required. Wear comfortable athletic wear and plan to arrive early enough to settle in. You will get more from the class when you can focus, not rush.
