Why Choose Us

Why Choose Evolution Pilates?

If you’re here, you’re probably trying to figure out where you belong.|
There are a lot of Pilates studios on Long Island. Some are big. Some are trendy. Some promise fast results. It can feel overwhelming to know what’s right for you.
At Evolution Pilates in Port Washington, we do things a little differently. We start with you.
Not your fitness level.
Not your age.
Not what you “should” be able to do.
You.

1. We Teach Real Classical Pilates

We teach the original method created by Joseph Pilates. Not a remix. Not a fusion. Not a fast-paced bootcamp version.
Classical Pilates is a system. Every exercise has a purpose. Every session builds on the last one. Over time, your body becomes stronger, more aligned, and more resilient.
And yes, Pilates is a workout. When it’s taught properly, it challenges you. You’ll feel muscles working that you forgot you had. But you’ll also feel supported and organized, not strained.

2. You Won’t Feel Lost Here

One of the things we hear all the time is, “I don’t want to feel lost or stupid in a class.”
You won’t.
Our instructors are deeply trained, and they stay with us for years. They pay attention. They adjust things for your body. They help you understand what you’re doing and why you’re doing it.
Whether you’re brand new or have been practicing for years, we meet you where you are and build from there.

3. We’re a Real Pilates Teacher Training Studio

Evolution Pilates is proud to serve as a host studio for Real Pilates Teacher Training, founded by Alycea Ungaro.
That means something.
It means our studio meets rigorous educational standards. It means we care about precision. It means we’re actively involved in mentoring the next generation of instructors.
When you take lessons here, you’re in a space that values depth, not shortcuts.

4. Private or Small Group — Your Choice

Some people thrive in private sessions. Others love the energy of a small group class.
We offer private, duet, and small group classes on the Reformer, Tower, Mat, and other classical apparatus. Everything is structured and intentional.
You won’t be thrown into something that doesn’t make sense for your body. We build progressively so you feel stronger, not defeated.

5. We’ve Been Part of This Community for Years

We’re not new to Port Washington. We’ve been part of this community for more than two decades, and many of our clients come from Manhasset, Roslyn, Great Neck, and across Long Island because they’re looking for something steady and trustworthy.
Our reputation isn’t built on marketing hype. It’s built on relationships and results.
People stay here. That says a lot.

6. This Is About More Than a Workout

Yes, you’ll get stronger.
Yes, your posture will improve.
Yes, you’ll feel more stable and more capable in your body.
But what we care about most is that you feel confident walking into the studio and confident walking out into your life.
That’s what Pilates is meant to do.
