Temple Pilates is a classically-rooted, alignment-focused Pilates studio. Founded by Nicole Growdon in 2017, the studio has grown into a community of Pilates teachers, students and wellness enthusiasts. Located in midtown Ventura, the studio offers a clean and modern aesthetic and is fully equipped with traditional apparatus from best manufacturers in the world: Gratz, Peak and Pilates Designs. At Temple Pilates we LOVE Pilates and we study and apply the Pilates Method to improve our health and increase ease of life - for ourselves and our students. Our sessions, classes, workshops and retreats focus on education, practice and progression. We're classically trained and our studio work stays classically rooted. We're pretty passionate about it.
Our students build their Pilates foundation by learning and practicing traditional exercises, sequences and series, and the integral concepts - all originally developed by Joseph Pilates. We practice on classical studio apparatus - traditional dimensions, leather straps, classical springs. Our studio has a Cadillac, Ladder Barrel, Chairs, Reformers, Towers and smaller apparatus (including Spine Correctors, Arcs/Small Barrels, Magic Circles, Push Up Bars, Neck Stretcher, Head Foot Correctors, Toe Correctors) and complementary tools like weights, rollers, balls, straps, and bands.

Pilates gives us the ability to see our bodies in a new light and make powerful body-mind connections - giving us more awareness and control.
|
To put it simply, we:
We accomplish this through applying a strong understanding of the body, the Pilates method and an array of breakdowns, variations, and modifications of the traditional work developed over time (through the creativity and innovation of the teachers that have passed the system along and that we have discovered ourselves in our own Pilates journey and play). As a student's body becomes stronger and more balanced, we progress into more challenging work. Private sessions are turned up and down session by session to meet students needs and goals. Small group classes offer classically rooted foundational and progressive workouts. |
