Get Started and FAQs

After connecting with us for a 15 minute complimentary phone consultation, your first in-studio session will be a Dynamic Body Assessment Session. In this 90 minute session you will get a feel for the DBP teaching style as you move and we evaluate your strength, posture, flexibility, and balance in the areas of your body that are of concern to you. By the end of this session we will have created a comprehensive and custom designed strategy to move you towards your goals.

Yes. A large percentage of our clients have some type of discomfort, pain issue or injury and most have tried medical or therapeutic treatments before starting our program. The reason we are able to help people with pain issues is because we don’t simply instruct you through a series of exercises. Instead, we teach you to understand the information of how your body moves and needs to move to feel better - from the inside out. We want you to own the information to heal yourself.

No. If your needs can be met in a group class format, you probably don’t need our services. If you’ve been working on elements of body pain, posture, flexibility, strength, balance for a while and aren’t making the progress you want, then the strategic one-on-one programming we offer is for you. If you’d like to get to a point where you can safely and effectively be able to make use of the hundreds of group classes around NYC, we will help you build the necessary body awareness, skills and tools to be able to benefit from any type of general workout regardless of modality.

No. Dynamic Body Pilates is not Physical Therapy. Physical Therapy typically involves manual manipulation of your body and focuses on one local area of the body. In Pilates we take into account the whole body to reduce or eliminate compensation patterns by guiding you, with great attention to detail, through more supportive ways of moving. If you’ve had surgery, you would typically seek Physical Therapy first, then see us in order to learn how to move well and stay well. If you are considering surgery, the techniques used by Dynamic Body Pilates can help build muscular balance and integration—and in some cases help you steer clear of surgery and Physical Therapy altogether.

As our services are not considered medical, we are not covered as a therapy under any insurance plan. Some insurance companies however, will provide reimbursement for fitness services. Please ask your provider about their policy.
HSA and FSA: If you work at a corporation that provides Health Spending Accounts and/or Flex Spending Accounts, please check with your HR department as these accounts may often cover a portion of your sessions.
