Are privates right for you?
Privates are designed to help you reach your goals as quickly and safely as possible. They are great for anyone, from beginners to professional athletes and everyone in between; for those working through injuries or specific muscle imbalances, those who are recovering from surgery, for teachers wanting to deepen their movement education, pregnant, pre and postnatal women and those with other special needs. Sheetal’s certification is in Pilates, but she is experienced in a number of alternate somatic practices such as Feldenkrais, The Melt Method, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization and Corrective Exercise for Functional Fitness. She draws on her wealth of mind and body knowledge to help her clients strengthen, mobilize, heal, educate and transform their bodies. Move Well. Live Well.
DANCE AND MOVEMENT CLASSES
Dance and Movement at “The Well” includes classes in Tap, Improvisation, Bollywood Dance, Modern and Jazz.
TAP DANCE
Tap dancing is great exercise for the body and the mind, not to mention a truly American art form, with a rich and meaningful history. Currently we are offering private and small group Tap dance classes for beginning and intermediate level students. A private class costs $75 and a small group class with 3-5 people costs $20-$25 per person. Contact Sheetal for more information if you are interested.
