I can not recommend Type A Training enough. I thought it would be a nightmare trying to find a personal trainer on the UES until I found Nathaniel the owner of Type A Training. He's is very professional and personally matched me up with the perfect trainer for my needs. I have never felt more motivated thanks to the Type A Training staff and owner Nathaniel. Thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions About Pilates in NYC
What is Pilates and how does it differ from yoga?
Pilates is a low-impact exercise method that focuses on core strength, flexibility, and precise body alignment through controlled movements. Unlike yoga, which emphasizes spiritual connection and holding poses, Pilates concentrates on dynamic movement, breathing coordination, and building a strong "powerhouse" (core). Our NYC private Pilates sessions emphasize functional fitness that translates to better posture, reduced back pain, and improved athletic performance.
How much do private Pilates sessions cost in NYC?
Our private Pilates sessions in NYC range from $149-$299 for starter packages. The most popular 45-minute starter package includes three private sessions for $249. All packages include certified, insured Pilates instructors who bring equipment to your Manhattan home or building gym, eliminating commute time and studio fees.
Is Pilates good for beginners with no experience?
Absolutely! Pilates is perfect for beginners because every exercise can be modified to match your current fitness level. Our certified instructors specialize in teaching proper form and breathing techniques from the ground up. We start with basic mat Pilates movements and gradually progress as you build strength and confidence, ensuring a safe and effective introduction to Pilates.
What should I expect in my first Pilates session?
Your first Pilates session focuses on learning fundamental movements, proper breathing techniques, and assessing your current strength and flexibility. Our instructor will discuss your goals, demonstrate core Pilates principles, and guide you through basic exercises emphasizing quality over quantity. Sessions are tailored to your pace with emphasis on proper alignment and building your "powerhouse" foundation.
How quickly will I see results from Pilates?
Most clients notice improved posture and core awareness within 2-3 weeks of consistent Pilates practice. Significant core strength improvements typically appear within 4-6 weeks, while enhanced flexibility, balance, and overall body conditioning develop over 6-8 weeks. Joseph Pilates famously said, "In 10 sessions you'll feel better, in 20 you'll look better, in 30 you'll have a new body."
Can Pilates help with back pain and injuries?
Yes! Pilates is excellent for back pain relief and injury rehabilitation because it strengthens deep core muscles that support your spine. Our certified instructors can modify exercises based on your specific condition or injury. We work closely with physical therapy protocols when needed, focusing on proper alignment, controlled movement, and gradual strength building to reduce pain and prevent re-injury.
Do you provide Pilates equipment for home sessions?
Yes! Our Pilates instructors bring all necessary equipment including mats, resistance bands, Pilates balls, foam rollers, and small props. You don't need to purchase anything - just wear comfortable, form-fitting clothing that allows free movement. We handle all equipment setup and breakdown in your Manhattan home or building gym.
Which Manhattan neighborhoods do you serve for Pilates?
We provide private Pilates instruction throughout Manhattan including Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Midtown, Financial District, Chelsea, Greenwich Village, and all NYC areas. Our certified instructors travel to your home, condo building gym, or preferred private space with all necessary Pilates equipment.
