Looking for a Pilates Student Discount? Here's Why We Offer One.
I remember being a senior at Michigan State University when a friend asked if I and another friend wanted to join an eight-week fitness challenge at a local studio. I hadn't worked out consistently since playing high school basketball, so I figured it was probably a good idea. The challenge was simple: two workouts a week for eight weeks.
On the first day there were about 30 people in class, and before we even got started the coach looked around the room and said, "By week eight, fewer than ten of you will still be here."
My friends and I laughed. Yeah, okay. We were convinced we'd be three of the people who finished. So every Tuesday and Thursday we rolled out of bed before sunrise and walked to this little studio just off campus for the 6:00 a.m. class. Eight weeks later, the coach was right. There were six of us left.
So what made working out in college such a challenge for those other 24 people? One…we built a support system from day one. We texted each other about the soreness, to confirm we were going to show up, and honestly made it a social thing.
But also because college is one of the first times you're completely responsible for your own health.
No one reminds you to move.
Organized sports practices are most likely gone
And no one is reminding you to schedule time for yourself.
You're balancing classes, exams, part-time jobs, internships, friendships, and trying to figure out what you want your future to look like. Somewhere in the middle of all that, taking care of yourself usually ends up at the bottom of the list.
But looking back, that habit of taking care of myself—even during a stressful 20-credit semester filled with extracurriculars—ended up preparing me for so much more than just building strength.
When college became work deadlines, bigger responsibilities, and endless life commitments, I already knew how to carve out time for something that mattered to me.
Those two classes a week completely hooked me. They showed me that movement and building strength weren't just things I did when I had extra time—they were some of the most important parts of my day.
At Core (LP), we believe learning how to take care of your body is one of the most valuable habits you can build during college. Strength isn't just about the workout—it's about having the energy to show up for everything else in your life, too.
That's why we created our undergraduate student discount.

Looking for Affordable Pilates Classes Near Me?
If you've been searching "affordable pilates classes near me," you're probably finding two extremes: low-cost gyms that don't offer the experience you're looking for or boutique studios that feel out of reach financially.
We understand that.
There are plenty of inexpensive ways to move your body, but finding a reformer pilates workout that gives you expert coaching, intentional programming, and an experience you actually look forward to can be harder.
Core (LP) was created to give people a place where they can build strength on the reformer without having to figure out workouts on your own.
Our classes are designed to be challenging, efficient, and approachable whether you are brand new to pilates or already have years of training experience.
What Makes Core (LP) Different?
Core (LP) isn't traditional Pilates.
Our classes combine the precision, control, and deep core strength people love about Pilates with progressive resistance and muscular endurance to create a true strength x pilates experience.
Every class is designed to challenge your muscles through slow, controlled movement and continuous resistance while remaining low impact on your joints to build stronger glutes, obliques, and abs.
Whether you're completely new to fitness or looking for a different way to strength train, our method meets you where you are and helps you keep progressing.
What Are the Advantages of Reformer Pilates?
One of the biggest advantages of reformer Pilates inspired strength training is that it's accessible to almost every fitness level.
The resistance can be adjusted, movements can be modified, and because it's low impact, many people find it easier to stay consistent than high-impact workouts.
At Core (LP), we've taken those same principles and built classes that emphasize strength, control, endurance, and intentional movement.
Our reformer group class environment also creates accountability, motivation, and expert coaching that can be difficult to replicate when working out on your own.
