Rolling class has returned to Sundays @ 10am

Picture
Hello friends,

I'm pleased to share the relaunch of our beloved Sunday morning restorative class in it's new and improved form... Foundational Body Tuning, Sundays @ 10am starting this Sunday Oct 12th. 

Body Tuning is an amalgamation of my studies and practice over the past 30 years and the thousands of hours I have spent working with so many different bodies. It is an evolution of the rolling work so many of you have done with me - expanding on fascial release sequences, techniques, breath work and relaxation tools. It's the work I do the most and I'm so happy to bring this Sunday class back so I can share it with you. 

Here are some class details:
  • The class is a hybrid meaning that it is live streamed from the studio to students via Zoom
    (with only a small handful of students in the studio).
  • Zoom attendance is recommended - my aim is to help students set these home practice routines and habits. 
  • A class recording will be sent out to all students on the roster within 48 hours of the class. 
  • There are two separate options on the calendar (Online/Zoom or In-Studio) - please choose the right option for yourself. Sorry for the complexity but we have to do this to set the attendance limit for in studio. 
  • If you're coming in the studio, bring your balls and please arrive 10 minutes early to get settled in before the video class begins.  
  • You'll need massage balls to participate in this class. Check out About the Balls to learn more about the balls we use and where to find them.
  • Attendance for the full series is not required but is highly recommended. 

Any other questions? Get in touch!

June 2025... Studio updates

Hello friends... 

I'm so pleased to welcome Julie Dexter Berg to our studio team... 

Julie comes to us with impressive teaching credentials and experience. She is truly passionate about classical Pilates and has had the good fortune of studying closely with several renown master teachers. For my friends who geek out on lineage, Julie was certified by Romana Kryzanowksa directly. I'm so excited for her to bring her depth of knowlege and breadth of experience to our studio.   

Julie relocated to Ventura from Seattle after splitting her time between the two for many years. She is also a certified yoga instructor and when she's not in a Pilates or Yoga studio you can find her enjoying time with family and friends, and walking her two big dogs.

Please join me in giving Julie the biggest, warmest welcome from the Temple community. You can book a private with her Monday morning or join her for a mat class as she'll be leading the Tues and Thurs mat classes for the next 3 weeks during Kym's absence. In August, Julie will be expanding her schedule - taking over Maya's slots as Maya leaves us to pursue her PT credentials. (We'll miss her terribly but I'm so proud of her and inspired by her drive.)

January 2025 : Studio News + Updates

Hello friends...

I hope the new year finds you in good health and spirits. It's been a while since I've posted a message. Life has been pretty wild and wooly the past few years.  I'm happy to share some studio updates + news with you. 

STUDIO EXPANSION : TEMPLE TEACHING TEAM 
Last year our Temple Pilates team tripled in size! Kym Votruba and Maya Holbrook both joined the studio team and it's been so fun working with them both. They bring wonderful teaching skills, insights and perspectives to their sessions and classes. 

Interested in taking a class or private with Kym or Maya? We're currently offering a special deal on small group classes and associate private sessions. 

Once their schedules are filled we'll have to take down the offer so I highly encourage taking advantage of it now. 

STUDIO EXPANSION : GROUP ROOM 
We've expanded the footprint of the studio and now have two distinct spaces for classes and sessions: the light-filled front room and a calm, grounding interior room. We've gotten super positive feedback about the changes and are all enjoying the expanded space so much. 

If it's been awhile since we've seen you in the studio, I encourage  you to come back in for a session or class and check out the studio's evolution.  
 
UPDATED SCHEDULE : MORE GROUP CLASSES  
With more space and more teachers, we have been able to expand our small group class schedule. Check out our current schedule and learn more about how we approach our group classes.

​Looking for more group class options? Let us know what you want and we'll do our best to make it happen.  

Wishing you the best in this first month of the year! Hope to see you in the studio soon! 

​Nicole

Studio updates for May 2020

Picture
The studio remains closed for on-site lessons due to COVID19. We're prepared to re-open safely once county health gives us the green light. Stay tuned... based on the 5/18 update from Gov Newsom, we're hopeful this next step is only a few weeks away. 

In the meantime, online mat classes and private sessions are available now (and will continue to be an option when the studio has re-opened). I've been getting some great feedback about these sessions and the breakthroughs they are driving for my students. While I miss teaching on the springs so much, I’m having a lot of fun working people out online and feeling so grateful we can use technology to stay fit and healthy together. It's really been a fantastic growth opportunity for me as a teacher and I've enjoyed the challenge to translate the way I like to work and teach to a virtual setting.

Response to current COVID-19 situation

Picture
🌈 "Andra tutto bene" -- Everything will be alright. 💚

Hello friends, 

I wanted to reach out with a quick update re: how Temple Pilates is responding to the current COVID-19 threat. I am closely monitoring updates from the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization regarding COVID-19, as well as keeping a finger on the pulse of scientific-based news from a variety of public health experts worldwide.

There's no doubt about it -- it’s a stressful time. So much is unpredictable and it’s challenging to know how to respond appropriately. I think it’s important to stay positive, alert and proactive while keeping ourselves as healthy as we possibly can -- body, mind, and spirit. This means we must keep ourselves strong and keep moving. To that end, I’m hopeful and optimistic that I can continue to offer you options -- both in the studio and online.

New Class Announcement


​Release, Restore & Realign:   Sundays @ 10:30 am

Picture
I'm so pleased to introduce a new weekly class at Temple Pilates-- Release, Restore & Realign -- affectionately coined Amazeballs by students who have experienced these techniques in my Pilates sessions and mat classes and/or have attended the Fascia Release and Unraveling workshops with the delightful Niedra Gabriel.  

​In this 75 minute class we'll use a variety of specialized body rolling methods to release bound tissue, restore elasticity, improve circulation, hydration, nutrition and detoxification, increase range of motion, and improve alignment throughout the body. Results are immediate and tangible -- and you'll take away valuable self-care insights and techniques that you can practice on your own anytime. 

This is some of the most transformative and healing body work that I've experienced -- I will continue to host Niedra regularly for the longer luxurious workshops we all love so much however I'm so excited to make this work more accessible to everyone by offering it weekly and incorporating some of the other release techniques I have studied. 

Attendance is limited to ensure plenty of space for each student.  
Please reserve your spot in advance.   

This class is priced the same as our regular Mat classes and uses the same passes.
