What is Contrology?
Contrology is the name that Joseph Pilates gave his system of exercises. It was after he died in 1967 that it became known as the Pilates Method. At Fokus Pilates, we use the term Contrology because we teach the format Joseph Pilates used to teach his students in his original New York studio. This format is called, Open Studio.

Contrology Pilates Classes
Contrology Pilates classes adhere to Joseph Pilates' original teaching methodology where clients are given autonomy and independence in their practice so they can achieve mastery of the Pilates system over time. This also gives the client the opportunity to build awareness on how to buid on their strengths and work on their limitations.

Private Pilates Classes
An initial private class is required to start your Pilates journey at Fokus Pilates. From here we decide if you will join the group classes or if you remain with private classes. Some clients require more than one private session before joining group classes due to the specific issues in their body or the stage they are at with their injury rehabilitation.
