Pilates today covers far more than just classic mat work. A modern Pilates studio offers a range of formats — from gentler mobility and posture-focused classes to intense, full-body strength sessions.
At MyPilates studios in Vilnius, you can choose from classic Pilates as well as more modern formats: Reformer Pilates, Pilates Chair, hot room classes, functional training, and MEGA Reformer.
Pilates Classes for Beginners
If it’s your first time trying Pilates, we usually recommend starting with a group class or a private session with a trainer. Since the method focuses on movement quality, body control, posture, and deep muscle strength, it works well for people at every fitness level.
Pilates can help you:
- strengthen your core
- improve your posture
- reduce back tension
- improve flexibility
- build body control and balance

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Pilates suitable for beginners?
Yes — Pilates classes suit people at every fitness level. Most exercises can be adapted individually, keeping classes safe even for complete beginners.
What’s the difference between Reformer Pilates and classic Pilates?
Reformer Pilates uses a specialized spring-based machine that creates resistance. Classic mat Pilates is typically done using just your own bodyweight.
Which class should I choose as a beginner?
We usually recommend starting with a group Reformer Pilates class, Mat Pilates, or a private session with a trainer.
Does Pilates help with posture and back pain?
Pilates strengthens deep muscles and improves body control and posture, which often helps reduce back tension.
What’s the difference between Pilates and functional training?
Pilates focuses more on control, stability, and deep muscle engagement, while functional training tends to involve more dynamic strength and endurance work.
Is Hot Room training suitable for everyone?
Hot room classes suit most people, but for your first session, we recommend starting with a lower-intensity class and paying attention to how your body feels.
What is MEGA Reformer?
MEGA Reformer is a more intense, full-body strength workout with increased resistance and a slower pace, focused on muscular endurance and control.
