Pilates
My Mama Said draw on your core
Our Pilates classes are done on the mat and incorporate a series of core-based movements that use your own body weight as resistance, helping prevent injuries. If you have never met your core, or just can’t find where you put it, best you pencil this class in at least once a week.

Pilates Arc – Exclusive to MMS, this class will dramatically improve core strength and spinal mobility.
Core Fit – A 45 minute fast moving class that is designed to elevate your core to a new level.
