Welcome To PilatesHouston,

Training, certification, and experience are the most important factors to consider when selecting an instructor or studio for Pilates training. The origination of the certification is key. Instructors who have been trained by Joseph Pilates’ original protégés will have a better understanding and a more sophisticated approach to the method than those with recent “weekend” certifications. A legitimate Pilates Certification requires hundreds of hours of education and training and very few meet our high standards.

James Harren, the founder of PilatesHouston, certified under Romana Kryzanowska and is a second generation Pilates instructor. He has managed, and continues to consult with, the original Pilates studio of the Houston Ballet Academy where their primary focus was helping injured dancers maintain their fitness and performance levels. In fact, all the trainers at PilatesHouston have trained under different Master Instructors, and have multiple Pilates certifications. We feel that the variety in staff training origination adds to the client's training experience by providing a fresh view of the work from each trainer while still maintaining the integrity of the Method.

PilatesHouston believes strongly that personalized training is necessary to get the most out of the Pilates Method. We offer private and semi-private sessions (which are limited to 2 clients maximum) as well as small group classes (3-5 clients average).

PilatesHouston is proud to host the following Fletcher Pilates® Courses in 2012:
