Can I work out on the equipment by myself?
Yes. Once you’ve reached a point in your practice where you are able to use the equipment comfortably and safely without an instructor present, MOVE Wellness Studios offers the option of doing independent workouts to supplement your Pilates or Gyrotonic practice. Independent workouts are $25/hour. Please contact us to schedule your independent practice.
What is MOVE Wellness Studios’s cancellation policy?
We ask that you give us at least 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule or cancel your session or class reservation. This allows us to effectively maximize our instructors’ time and keep the studios running smoothly. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice will be charged at the full cost of the session or class.
I would like to take a group class. Can I just show up, or do I need to register online?
Group classes have a capacity of 10-15 people, so space is limited. We require all participants to either register online or by phone at 734.761.2306. Drop-ins are on a space available basis only.

In addition to group classes, we offer private sessions with apprentice trainers in both Pilates and Gyrotonic methods. The apprentice trainers start at $30/session. Please contact us for more information and apprentice trainer availability.
