Pilates Stance, Neighbor

Hi, I'm Angie, owner of Pilates Stance, a classical Pilates Studio in Niles, IL. I am a seasoned Romana's Pilates instructor and I teach Pilates the way Joseph Pilates designed it. He called his work Contrology: the art of controlling your body with your mind. It isn't a collection of random exercises. It's a complete, step-by-step program where each movement prepares you for the next, so your strength, posture, and flexibility keep improving over time. Romana Kryzanowska learned the method directly from Joe and spent her life passing it on. I'm proud to carry that lineage into my studio.

What classical Pilates gives you:

- A clear path forward. You build on what you learned last time, so you can feel yourself getting stronger and moving better.

- Spring-powered support. The Reformer, Cadillac, and Chair use spring resistance to work the deep muscles that hold you upright and protect your back.

- Flow and focus. Exercises link together with rhythm and intention, training your whole body and keeping your mind engaged.

My clients range from teenagers to people in their 90s: first-timers, athletes, new and expecting moms, and people coming back from injury. Wherever you're starting, Contrology meets you there and helps you move through everyday life with more strength and ease.

Book a private session on the Reformer, Cadillac, or Chair, or join a mat or reformer class. I'd love to work with you.
