ABOUT
THE PILATES BARN

The Pilates Barn is your Ann Arbor health and fitness resource, a place where you can trust you’re in the hands of the most experienced, kind, and knowledgeable instructors.

Our approach is holistic. We work with our clients to strengthen their core, and also develop proper sleep and nutrition (and laughter!).

We are passionate about classical Pilates and are excited to share its benefits with you!

The Instructors

All of The Pilates Barn instructors are classically trained through the United States Classical Pilates Certification, the first and oldest professional Pilates training program in the world. All of our instructors have completed over 600 hours of rigorous training and certification and are among the most knowledgeable in the field. Because all of our instructors are 3rd generation (only 3 removed from Joseph Pilates himself), we’ve been able to honor and preserve the classical system. Giving our clients an unwatered-down Pilates experience. A true classical Pilates experience.

The Equipment

We are fully outfitted with the Gratz pilates apparatus. Gratz Industries are the original manufacturers of Pilates apparatus and the industry’s established source for authentic equipment. They were started by Frank Gratz in New York City in 1928 as a custom fabrication shop producing industrial design prototypes, architectural metal, furniture and sculpture for many of the world’s greatest designers.

The Space

We are inspired by our space and hope you will be, too. Our space is beautifully situated on the top floor of the historic Godfrey Building in Kerrytown with an open loft feel. Enjoy the cathedral ceiling, lots of windows and natural light, exposed brick, modern lounge and work area. On your way in or out, stop by Sweetwaters cafe, Sparrow’s market or any of the other local, Kerrytown shops. We can’t wait to see you!
