TIRED OF STARTING OVER?

You want to feel better, but it's hard to stick with exercise when you don't enjoy it. Since 2015, Citizen Pilates has helped more than 11,000 clients discover a different way to work out. The last thing you need is another workout that feels like one more thing you failed at.

THE CITIZEN METHOD

You don't have to figure out how to work out. That's our job. Every 45-minute Citizen Pilates class combines progressive strength training, intentional programming, and expert instruction, so you can stop worrying about what to do and start enjoying what your body can do.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

You shouldn't have to force yourself through workouts you dread just to feel better. Jess Schindler founded Citizen Pilates in Houston in 2015 to make exercise something you can actually enjoy and stick with. Working out should become part of your life, not something you're always starting over.

WHAT IF THIS TIME YOU STUCK WITH IT?

Imagine finding a workout you actually look forward to. One that becomes part of your life instead of something you're always starting over.

FIND YOUR PEOPLE

01

Walking into a new studio can feel intimidating. But you don't have to know Pilates, own the right outfit, or arrive in shape. You'll find instructors who know your name, people who are happy to see you, and a place where you can show up exactly as you are.

THIS TIME, IT
STICKS.

02

You've started workout routines before, and stopped. Not because you didn't want to feel better, but because you couldn't stand doing them. What if you found a workout you didn't have to talk yourself into? Start with three classes. Discover Pilates. And before you know it, working out becomes something you look forward to, not something you're always trying to start.

YOU BELONG HERE

YOU DON'T NEED TO BE FLEXIBLE, FIT, OR EXPERIENCED TO GET STARTED.

Your workout should meet you where you are, not the other way around.

That’s why you’ll find spacious reformers that are easier to get on and off, instructors who guide you through every movement, and classes where you never have to worry about keeping up with everyone else.

You can stop wondering whether Pilates is for you and start discovering what you’re capable of.

Have never attended a bad class at Citizen. Every class challenges me in new ways. It is exactly what I look for in an exercise studio. Also, everyone is very friendly and makes you feel so welcome.

This is definitely what I have been looking for in a pilates studio! Small classes with dedicated instructors. No class is exactly the same and you walk away with a great work out. Studios are clean and modern. Its best to book in advance as classes do full up quickly. For first timers toe socks are not required. You can work out barefoot or purchase socks at the studio.
