Not all Pilates starts the same. Ours starts with an evaluation. Period.

At Ricca Pilates, we don’t believe in guessing.
We believe in evaluating first—always.
Every client begins with a mandatory movement evaluation so we understand how your body moves before we ever cue an exercise. Why? Because real Pilates isn’t about random workouts—it’s about intentional movement that delivers results.

This approach allows us to:
✔️ Identify imbalances and compensation patterns
✔️ Build smarter, safer programs
✔️ Support injury prevention and performance
✔️ Create meaningful, lasting change through movement

Whether you’re new to Pilates, returning after injury, or refining a seasoned practice, this is how progress actually happens.
