James Island, Charleston

Reformer Pilates for James Island

Over the connector and across town — to a studio with eight reformers instead of twenty.

Worth crossing for

A different kind of room to what is on the island

James Island is not short of places to work out. What it is short of is a comprehensive reformer studio where the class caps at eight and the instructor spends the session correcting rather than counting.

Ours is a single room, deliberately: no microphones, no leaderboard, no wall of mirrors. Every client manages their own carriage — springs, foot bar, straps — with an instructor watching. One reviewer who has trained here more than a year says she has never taken the same class twice.

If you are already crossing the bridge for work or for downtown, the studio sits just off Coleman on the Mount Pleasant side, which makes it an easy addition rather than a separate trip.

Getting here

Over the connector, through downtown, across the Ravenel

The usual route is the James Island Connector into downtown, up East Bay Street, then over the Ravenel Bridge and right onto Coleman. Alternatively, 526 around the top avoids the peninsula entirely.

The Ravenel is the variable — it moves well most of the day and slowly at rush hour. Free parking directly outside the studio at the other end.

Questions

Coming from James Island

What makes this different from the studios on James Island?

Class size and equipment, mostly. We cap group reformer classes at eight on Balanced Body Allegro 2 reformers, with enough floor space around each to extend fully. Instructors give hands-on corrections rather than instruction over a microphone.

How busy is the Ravenel?

It moves well outside peak hours. Mid-morning and early afternoon classes are the easiest to reach from James Island; if you are coming at rush hour, 526 around the top can be the better route.

Do you offer private sessions as well as classes?

Yes. Private sessions are $90 for forty-five minutes, and semi-private is $60 per person for two or three people, reserved by phone.
