Gary Calderone is a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher (NCPT) and is the owner and operator of our Pilates studio. With over three decades of experience as a Pilates teacher, author, educator, and innovator, Gary offers personalized assessments of your movement patterns that may contribute to your perceived condition and provides solutions through movement. He has an exceptional intuitive ability to explore and resolve client issues as to executing the Pilates method to fit their need, toward self-regulation and self-healing.
Pilates is a rehabilitation technique designed to release tension and pain, re-educate movement patterns, and develop a balanced body that is toned, flexible, and strong.
Our goal is to enhance movement - more than just an exercise - into a nourishing practice at the center of our physical design, encompassing wellness, strength, balance, and restoration. The core may be a designation, but beyond the core, there is a journey to discover self-regulation and resiliency. Pursuing this embodied approach, within any physical discipline, leads to self-healing.
| “Gary is a wealth of information about the practice of pilates! He is kind and patient when I'm struggling with a movement. He respects the issues my body brings to the mat. He has helped me numerous times in the last decade to put my body back together after various setbacks. With Gary, I don't do pilates as a sport, but as a means to continue to do my sports and function highly in life.” |

We recognize a significant difference between the biomechanical and bio-intelligent approaches to movement. Our embodied perspective of movement shifts us from a biomechanical, body-as-an-object approach to a bio-intelligent body-as-a-living-process approach. This approach allows us to experience a felt sense of how to, self-regulate, self-heal, adapt, and be resilient in the complex, changing world around us.
