Our Story

Hi, My name is Jessica. I am the virtual Pilates instructor at Plates Pilates. This idea came to me and my partner Mark during the first week of Philadelphia’s “Stay at Home” Order. The order prompted me to begin teaching Pilates mat classes virtually. I was incredibly grateful to remain connected with my clients, however I noticed that the experience was lacking a little something the studio environment provides.

I have designed Plates to address the flaws I noticed. First, by ensuring that all students have the same props, our mat classes offer more fluidity and diversity in exercises that mimic the Pilates Chair, Tower, and Reformer we would use in the studio. Secondly, by offering a budget friendly option to have a reformer in your home.
