Welcome to Ning Pilates
At Ning Pilates, we believe in movement that transforms from the inside out. Rooted in the Classical Pilates method, our approach is grounded in strength, stretch, stamina, and stability — helping you build a body that moves with control, balance, and ease.
Our instructors are certified through PMA (Pilates Method Alliance)-approved comprehensive programs and bring years of teaching experience to each session. Whether you're new to Pilates or a seasoned mover, you're in good hands.
We work with a range of clients — from athletes and dancers to post-rehab and prenatal — to create sustainable strength and mobility.
Located in the heart of Long Island City, our serene space offers personalized instruction in a supportive and inclusive environment.
About Classical Pilates
Classical Pilates is the original method developed by Joseph Pilates, following a structured sequence of exercises rooted in six key principles: Centering, Concentration, Control, Precision, Breath, and Flow.
It emphasizes whole-body strength, alignment, and mindful movement.
As Romana Kryzanowska said: "Stretch with strength and control."
Unlike Contemporary Pilates, which often modifies the work, Classical Pilates preserves the original exercises, order, and equipment — staying true to the method as it was intended.
