Pilates Mat is a welcoming, energizing movement class designed to build strength, stability, mobility, and greater body awareness.
Through mindful, controlled movement, you’ll be guided through exercises that support core strength, posture, balance, and coordination—helping you move with greater ease and confidence in everyday life.
You’ll be encouraged to move at your own pace, take breaks when needed, and adapt the practice to what feels right for your body. Whether you’re new to Pilates or have an established practice, you’ll find opportunities to strengthen, stretch, and reconnect with your body.
All bodies and all levels are welcome. No previous Pilates experience is needed.
Cost: $0 – $22 Sliding Scale

Majestic Healing Pathways™ is the foundational care model that guides all of Majestic Community Wellness’s programs. It reflects our belief that healing is a right — not a privilege — and that healing happens most sustainably when care is consistent, culturally grounded, and rooted in community.
Developed in response to gaps in traditional health and wellness systems, Majestic Healing Pathways™ centers the lived experiences of Black and Brown communities who face disproportionate stress, trauma, and barriers to care. The model honors the reality that healing is not a single intervention, but a pathway built over time through breath, movement, rest, relationship, and choice.
