Bend Pilates

I was looking for a Pilates class while I was staying in Bend for the night. Trusty Unilocal pointed me to Bend Pilates. I called them to find out their schedules for the evening and they had a 4:30pm slot available. Perfect!
I arrived a few minutes early to fill out the usual waivers. The standard drop in rate is $ 27. This Pilates studio did not require the grippy socks my home studio in Seattle usually mandates. In this class, we would be utilizing 3 machines (standard reformer, chair reformer, and mat reformer). It is a relatively small studio– max of 5 students per class.
The instructor was wonderful! She was patient in explaining each of the moves and gave me plenty of pointers and tips along the way. We did great core work and I thoroughly enjoyed trying out new machines.
The one downside? I didn’t get to really sweat in this class (maybe it just wasn’t the right class for me?). But I will definitely be back to try another class the next time I am visiting Bend.

Just visiting Bend. After getting kicked out of a crossfit class because I was a beginner, we decided to take in a Pilates class. They were so accommodating, got us in quickly and helped guide us through the whole workout. The drop in rate ($ 27) is pricey. It was worth it though. We will be back for sure. I highly recommend this place!

I have been going to Bend Pilates for over a year now. Pilates is the only thing that resolved my lower back pain after herniating a disc. I really enjoy the team at Bend Pilates and find them knowledgeable and innovative. The classes are great — diverse and fun. Recommended!

Participated in a foam roller class and was really impressed with the studio, the instructor, and the other fun folks there. Super beneficial techniques learned — highly recommend checking out more of their healthy lifestyle activities/​services.

Taking private Pilates lessons with Debby helped me to get into the best shape of my life. Debby knows exactly how to lead her clients through a workout to help them improve their strength and flexibility while taking care of old injuries and avoiding new ones. A year of Pilates helped me build long lean muscles, and improve my balance, coordination and grace. I wasn’t expecting it, but taking Pilates also helped me to become a better belly dancer! Additionally, Debby is great fun to spend time with during lessons. My hours at Bend Pilates are among the highlights of my week. I definitely recommend this studio to anyone who wants to experience strength, confidence, and joy in their body!

Bend Pilates is a wonderful pilates studio. They have a variety of equipment and mat classes to choose from with knowledgeable instructors. Private classes are especially beneficial. I have been working with Deb Bowen, the owner consistently since July of this year (2014) and have gained wonderful core strength that has helped improve my running and I have also lost 5 inches around my waistline in this short amount of time!!! A large portion of that is definitely due to pilates. If you’re going to do pilates in Bend, go to BEND PILATES!!! I love coming to the studio! Thank you
