Welcome to Downtown Pilates Studio

Nestled in the Plaza Codorniz complex of Old Town Scottsdale, Downtown Pilates Studio is a boutique space dedicated to personalized, mindful movement.

For over 10 years, we’ve proudly served a diverse community of clients using classical Pilates principles — just as Joseph Pilates intended. We offer private sessions and small group classes with no more than five clients, allowing for focused attention and thoughtful, hands-on guidance.

We are not a franchise, and we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach — our work is personal, intentional, and grounded in quality. Whether you’re recovering, realigning, or recommitting to yourself, our studio is designed to meet you exactly where you are.

Your Pilates Team,

Rooted in experience.

Our small group classes are designed to give you the energy of a class setting while still receiving individualized attention.

Ideal for those seeking personalized guidance, our private sessions use the full range of Pilates apparatus — including the Reformer, Cadillac, Chair, and more. Each session is tailored to your goals, whether you’re recovering from injury, deepening your practice, or just starting out.

Pilates for Golfers

(50 minutes · Golf-specific mobility & strength)

Designed for golfers of all levels, this session focuses on improving core strength, rotational mobility, and overall body awareness to enhance your game and prevent injury. Expect targeted movements that support a more powerful, balanced, and consistent swing.

This session emphasizes deep, guided stretching and breath-led movement to release tension, improve flexibility, and support recovery. It’s the perfect complement to your regular Pilates practice — or a reset for your body and mind.
