The Pilates Barn

The Pilates Barn is a Pilates studio that teaches classical Pilates on Gratz apparatus, with reformer classes, tower classes and private instruction. Owner Heather Dupuis leads the studio, and the instructors are classically trained through the United States Classical Pilates Certification, with the goal of helping clients move safely, stay pain free and build strength, balance and flexibility. The studio also encourages good sleep, nutrition and laughter alongside core work.

Classes can be reserved through the class schedule on the website, and newcomers can start with private lessons to get used to the method. The studio occupies the top floor of the historic Godfrey Building at Kerrytown in Ann Arbor, an open loft space with a cathedral ceiling, exposed brick and plenty of natural light.
