An exclusive Classical Pilates session at the studio
Your studio session will be tailored to your fitness level by a professional Pilates instructor. Increase your strength and movement quality at a fully equipped Classical Pilates studio. Studio sessions are really the best way to learn Pilates and to achieve your goals faster.
- Perfect for Everybody regardless of your fitness level, age, body type, or pre-existing injuries. That’s because Classical Pilates consists of over 600 exercises all of which have modifications and variations. The exercises can be tailored for beginners, professional athletes or anyone in between!
- It’s a Full Body Workout so even though Pilates focuses on core strength, it also develops strength and flexibility in the extremities. Compared to many other activities that isolate the muscles of the body, Pilates is an extremely efficient method of exercise because it works the body as a whole.
- Improves Mind-Body Awareness by bringing attention to your posture and which muscles you are engaging at any given moment. This mind-body connection is important in everyday movement as well as in your other physical activities.
- Increases Flexibility by contracting certain muscles, while finding length through other muscles. Many exercises work on increasing range of motion through a joint or focus on building flexibility through muscles.
- Improves Posture by your increasing your understanding of correct body alignment and increasing core strength. Good posture is a reflection of good alignment supported by a strong core.
- Improves athletic performance for a wide range of activities including golf, running, cycling, skiing, tennis, dance and more! A stronger core means more power from your center when rotating in racquet and club sports. Expect better posture, coordination, control and flexibility for all athletes.
- Risk of injury is reduced by creating a more balanced body and strengthening underutilized muscles. Bad backs improve by building support and stability in the deep abdominals and muscles that support the spine.
- Improves balance and joint health which is particularly important for older adults. Classical Pilates also improves circulation, overall health and well-being.
I went to Stephanie with back pain and although it is still early days, I am absolutely amazed by the results and a measurable reduction in pain in just two months. She is one of those great teachers who really takes the time to understand what is best for your body and fitness level, very attentive and recognizes when to push you and when to praise you.
I like how Stephanie focuses on the technique and always corrects even the smallest mistake. I have never trained the abs so well as in her classes. Great teaching, perfect to get back into shape post pregnancy!
Don’t let Stephanie’s quiet demeanor fool you. She is a meticulous and challenging Pilates instructor who customizes my program to my physical needs. I had a very complicated hip replacement and Stephanie worked with me at 10 days post operative while I was on crutches and took me all the way back to full health. She read about the kind of surgery I had and worked to help me rehab. Once I was back to full strength, she continued to challenge me. Stephanie is amazing!
I have used various pilates instructors over the years so I have a good idea of what to look for in an instructor. Steph’s classically trained background (Romana taught) and her knowledge of body movement makes her a great instructor. If she was still in NYC, I’d still be training with her!
Stephanie helped me achieve more than I ever thought was possible. Her knowledge & dedication make her the perfect pilates instructor.
No question that Pilates moves your body toward good health, flexibility, and great energy. No question that Stephanie is a master at teaching! I worked with Stephanie for five years, three times a week. Stephanie is kind and fun. She is also committed to no nonsense and hard work. I have been blessed with the results! If you are looking for a way to liberate your stressed and sagging body, Pilates with Stephanie is the magic potion.
Working one on one with a skilled trainer is extremely beneficial as the teacher is able to fine tune your workout to your skill level, build on your strengths, and work on your challenges. Stephanie Fjalestad has been my primary instructor for the last twelve years and it is a pleasure working with her. What I truly admire is her ability to combine so many aspects into the classes including MELT, mat work, and working with all of the equipment. Her professionalism, experience and knowledge are brought together in an engaging personal teaching style. The newest aspect to our continuing relationship is how we have been able to continue but at the same time re-structure our sessions using Skype!
Stephanie took me from a brand-new beginner, recovering from a tough (third) c-section, to an intermediate/advanced Pilates practitioner in less than two yrs! Her experience and smarts allowed her to adapt my exercises to my very low ability upfront, and then slowly and consistently raise the bar, challenging me to work harder and get stronger and more flexible. Stephanie knows when to push and when to let go a bit, and she is flexible enough (in her thinking, not just in her body) to adjust the difficulty level between and even within sessions.
I had the opportunity to train with other Pilates trainers while Stephanie was away, and learned to appreciate her methodology and upbeat personality even more. Over the past 8 years my body has strengthened tremendously and I feel and look leaner, lighter and more energized.
No membership required. From SEK 980 per Private Session and SEK 560 per person for a Duet Session.
You train with a professional instructor on classical apparatus in a fully equipped Pilates studio.
Unique customized Private Sessions (1 Person) and Duet Sessions (2 People).
What should I choose to start with?
We recommend most people to start with a Private Session as a beginner. It will help you to understand the basics properly. You will learn how to modify the exercises to your own ability and this will make the classes more effective.
A Private Session is completely adapted to the individual so you can be pregnant, a new mother, or 60+. Later you can participate in our special classes Pregnancy Pilates (safely train all trimesters), Mama Pilates (train correctly after birth) and Vintage Pilates (for you 60+ and who do not exercise regularly).
A Duet Session is for you who are two people. You can be two friends, two new moms or two 60-plus friends. You book individually or together.
For Group Sessions with more than two people, please contact us to book.
Good to know before before your studio session?
- All sessions are in English unless otherwise stated in your booking.
- Wear comfortable clothing without a zipper or other sharp details. We train in socks (preferably grip socks for your safety) when we train Classical Pilates.
- Bring your own water bottle and drink plenty during and after the session.

What's the difference between Pilates and Yoga?
Both Yoga and Pilates are mind-body exercise methods but there are some key differences:
- In Yoga the main focus is breathing. In Pilates the focus is precision of movement, breathing is secondary.
- Yoga tends to be more static, holding poses. Pilates tends to have more flow of movement.
- Yoga is rooted in spiritual, meditative practice. In Pilates there is no spiritual aspect.
I've never done Pilates before, when will I see results?
Joe Pilates always said, “In 10 sessions you will feel the difference, in 20 you will see the difference, and in 30 you will have a whole new body”
Can I do this?
Yes, provided you can stand, sit and lie on the floor, you can train classes. If you have been recommended by a physiotherapist, doctor or have a known injury, we recommend at least one private session first. During a private session together with a professional instructor, you discuss your individual goals and specific challenges. The instructor observes how you move and together you step-by-step review how to modify specific exercises during a class so that you feel confident and at the same time get a safe and effective workout.
I have a disability, can I train Pilates?
It depends on your disability. We currently have clients with prosthetics who train, but we are unfortunately not able to train people who have mobility, hearing or visual impairments for safety reasons. This is something we continuously evaluate and hope to be able to offer in the future as Pilates is really good for everyone. If you are uncertain, please contact us to consult.
How often should I exercise?
Joseph Pilates was ahead of his time and he recommended exercising 3 times a week. We believe you will see development with at least one private session or class per week as a complement to other physical activity to stretch and strengthen your entire body. If you can exercise two to three times a week, you will feel results much faster.
To promote health, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, prevent premature death and to maintain or improve physical capacity such as fitness and strength the following is recommended for all adults from 18 years and up:
- Be physically active in total at least 150 minutes a week. The intensity should be at least moderate. At high intensity recommended at least 75 minutes per week. The activity should be spread over at least three of days of the week. Moderate and high intensity can also be combined. More physical activity provides additional health effects.
- Muscle strengthening physical activity should be performed at least twice a week for the majority of the body’s large muscle groups.
- The elderly (defined here as adults over the age of 65) should also practice balance.
