What Should I Wear to Pilates?
Let's start with what everyone is really wondering.
No...
You don't need the matching workout set.
You don't need the trendy socks.
And absolutely nobody is judging your outfit.
We promise.
Exercise is Healthcare
At Core (LP) Berkley + Rochester Hills, MI, we believe exercise is healthcare.
Because exercise is what improves our every day lives. We see it every day. Pilates-inspired strength training improves mobility, supports metabolic health, reduces pain, improves energy, and helps people move better. It’s one of the most consistent, evidence-backed tools we have for long-term health.
So when people ask whether they can use HSA/FSA funds toward their Core (LP) private training or Pilates classes, the answer is often yes, if exercise is being used to prevent or support a medical condition.
Here’s how it works.
Why Lifters Plateau Without Mobility Training
You’ve been lifting for years. You’re consistent and you know how to push yourself. But at some point, things stop moving the way they used to. Your mobility feels tighter. Recovery drags. Your lifts aren’t necessarily getting worse, but they’re not getting better either. You notice your body just can’t push past a certain point, or worse you just stop doing that exercise all together. That’s why the best athletes and lifters are moving towards mobility training.

That first class can feel like a question mark. So let’s break it down so you know exactly what to expect in your first Pilates-inspired strength training class at Core (LP).
