We love supported squats with the Pilates Springs! For achy knees or backs, this can be a great way to train movement mechanics and strengthen with just the right amount of support. We love the Pilates Springs so much we've found a way to bring them home with us. Check out our virtual Tower on the Go classes. Rent equipment for $15/month !

We’re open! Outdoor fitness is allowed during the current shelter-in-place order, provided it is 100% socially distanced and 100% masked. This is how we’ve been operating during COVID times, so we are happy to announce: no changes! We remain open for outdoor privates on the Pilates equipment. Virtual privates also available.... We are committed to the safety of our staff and our community, and will be keeping group classes virtual for now. . . . . . #corpokinetic #oaklandpilates #movebetterfeelbetter #pilatesforinjuries #movementheals #pilatesinstructor #pilatesstudio #pilatesoakland #pilates #virtualpilates #livestreamfitness #pilatesismagic #pilateshuman

We've been meeting with clients as usual this week, and are noticing that... as usual for 2020... it's been quite a week. Anxiety and celebration strike similar chords on the nervous system, and, well, we've been doing both! Feel it all. Give yourself a moment to breathe. Give yourself a few more moments to just be. As the weather turns, we've been ramping up ventilation and sanitation in our indoor space and are now offering indoor privates. We've also ordered outdoor he...aters for our outdoor spaces. And we're still enjoying the many benefits of virtual. Schedule a virtual, outdoor, or indoor private today, and start feeling better tomorrow.

Tight calves? They may be overworking for your glutes, or feeling the effects of the slight heel in your shoes. Often a tight muscle needs more than one intervention: help it release, then engage the supportive musculature to help it stay that way. Feeling tightness and not sure how to address it? Try our Core and Restore class, Friday 12:30 pm: half work half restorative motion ~ Perfect way to get ready for the weekend!...

Anyone else enjoying how technology can take us virtually anywhere these days? It’s been a joy to reconnect with old clients who had moved out of the area, welcome new ones from across the country, and still see our clients when they need to travel! We’re looking forward to opening up more in-person options as it is safe to do so, but we’re also leaning into the benefits of virtual. 1 super safe 2 so convenient (no need to find parking!!!) 3 still effective - we see you..., correct you, and cheer you on virtually just as we would in person We offer a full roster of virtual group classes as well as virtual and outdoor private sessions.

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT: Linda started private pilates sessions with us in order to help with an old back injury. As a long-time yoga practitioner, Linda was already cued into the mind-body connection, and approached Pilates with an impressive eagerness to learn. After several months of working together, Linda let me know that she felt strong enough to pursue a life-long dream of hers: to complete a yoga teacher training program... and she did it! When she was younger, her back injury had kept her from starting the intensive certification, then having kids delayed it, but now with a 200 hour program under her belt, Linda is now a certified yoga instructor. Way to go, Linda!

Coming to you LIVESTREAM, seven days a week! Check out our full schedule of small group Pilates mat classes. Our members enjoy unlimited access to these classes, as well as five recording videos a week. Schedule link in bio.

How do we approach injury rehabilitation? Here's an excerpt from our blog: "While most readers of this blog are most likely familiar with Pilates and the benefits it can offer to core strength as well as overall fitness and flexibility, you may not be as familiar with how a Pilates studio approaches injury rehabilitation." https://corpokinetic.com/our-rehab-approach/

Knee pain? Our Pilates instructors can help in many ways. Keeping stress off your knees while moving and strengthening the rest of your body feels great. Specific mobilizations through gentle movement or orthopedic bodywork can help the injured area heal. Here's an excerpt from our blog, "Modifications for Common Injuries": https://corpokinetic.com/modifications-for-common-injurie/
