Annie Durning, Senior Pilates Instructor, Pilates V Studios

A client recently asked me a great question:

“What does the V in Pilates V stand for?”

I smiled and said, “It stands for vibrancy—because that’s what we’re all about!”

At Pilates V, we don’t just help you move—we help you move with purpose, with energy, and with joy. Vibrancy isn’t just a feeling you get after a good class. It’s a way of living. It’s about waking up your body, clearing your mind, and connecting with the best version of yourself—every time you step onto the mat or the Reformer.

What Does It Mean to Be Vibrant in Your Pilates Practice?

Vibrancy in Pilates shows up in all kinds of ways. You might notice it when:

  • Your breath and movement sync in a way that feels effortless and energizing.

  • You finish class standing taller, feeling lighter, and more you.

  • You surprise yourself by doing something that felt out of reach just a few weeks ago.

  • Your focus sharpens, and your inner chatter quiets for an hour of “just you” time.

It’s not about being the most flexible or the strongest person in the room. It’s about showing up with intention, staying curious, and choosing to put energy into your movement—even on the days when you feel a little sluggish.

How We Bring the Vibrancy to Your Class

At Pilates V, we infuse that V-energy into every class by:

  • Creating thoughtful class flows that challenge and support you at the same time.

  • Offering smart modifications to keep you safe, confident, and progressing—no matter your experience level or injury history.

  • Encouraging connection—between your breath and your body, your movement and your mind, and even between you and your instructor or classmates.

  • Celebrating your wins—because we’re here for the little victories as much as the big ones.

Whether you’re in a calm and focused Reformer Flow, a high-energy Jumpboard class, or gently building strength in a private session, we design your Pilates experience to wake up your body and spirit.

Taking Vibrancy with You Into Daily Life

The best part? That vibrancy doesn’t stay in the studio. It follows you out the door and into your day.

You might notice:

  • Your posture is stronger and more supported.

  • You’re breathing deeper and handling stress more calmly.

  • You feel more connected to your body, and more confident in how you move through life.

  • You’ve got a little more bounce in your step—and a whole lot more you.

So, What’s the V in Pilates V?

It’s Vibrancy. Vitality. Victory. Voice.

But most of all, it’s you—fully alive, fully present, and fully vibrant.

Join us in class  and put your V into motion.
