Clinical Pilates

One-on-One Clinical Pilates in Kitsilano | Physiotherapy-Based Movement and Rehabilitation

Restore movement. Build strength. Move with confidence.

What is Clinical Pilates?

Clinical Pilates takes the foundational principles of traditional Pilates—core control, precision, breath, and alignment—and integrates them into a physiotherapy-based framework. It’s not a fitness class; it’s a one-on-one, tailored movement program designed to improve stability, mobility, and body awareness.

Each session is guided by a physiotherapist who assesses your movement patterns, identifies areas of imbalance or weakness, and creates a customized plan to support recovery, build strength, and prevent re-injury. The approach emphasizes slow, controlled movements that retrain deep stabilizing muscles, improve posture, and restore efficient movement patterns.

What are the benefits?

Clinical Pilates offers a safe, evidence-informed way to restore function and confidence in your body. Benefits include:

• Improved core stability and posture – Develop deep abdominal and spinal support to reduce strain and improve movement control.

• Pain reduction and improved function – Helpful for chronic pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, and restoring ease in daily activities.

• Better balance and coordination – Enhances your ability to move safely and efficiently, improving flexibility and confidence.

• Support through recovery and prevention – Bridges the gap between rehabilitation and everyday activity, reducing risk of future injuries.

• Individualized and adaptable – Because each program is one-on-one, every session meets you where you are—whether that’s early rehab or advanced conditioning.

Who is Clinical Pilates for?

Clinical Pilates is ideal for:

• People recovering from injury or surgery, including orthopedic and ICBC-related conditions.

• Older adults looking to maintain strength, balance, and independence.
