Platform Pilates was founded from a desire to help people find more movement, strength, and confidence in their bodies in ways that support real life, not trends or aesthetics. We are a team of highly trained and experienced instructors who are deeply invested in helping you reach your individual goals, with the understanding that every body is different.
We are a contemporary Pilates studio where the focus is on thoughtful instruction, progress, and applying Pilates to the body rather than forcing the body into a method. Our work is designed to help you move better, build lasting strength, and carry that confidence into everyday life beyond the studio.
We chose the name Platform Pilates intentionally. In addition to being a place for high-quality movement and connection, our studio serves as a platform to support and give back to local nonprofit organizations that matter to our community.
Come as you are. Leave feeling stronger, more capable, and more connected.

"I visited Chicago for work and joined 2 sessions at a request. I had amazing sessions, which literally saved my back. The studio beautiful and comfy. The instructors are amazing and the vibes are so amazing.
I will come back for sure next time I visit Chicago. I really recommend Platform Pilates!"

"As someone newer to Pilates, this studio goes above and beyond to make their clients feel comfortable and supported in both classes and privates sessions. The stunning space and warm ambiance makes for an incredibly positive experience. Learning Pilates from Amanda has been wonderful and I’m excited to continue my journey with the whole team for as long as possible! I highly recommend Platform Pilates to anyone looking for a studio or wanting to try something new."

"I was a complete Pilates novice and honestly, I can't imagine going anywhere else in Chicago for my Pilates workouts. Amanda is a gem as is Karen, and I cannot say enough about the culture of inclusivity and care they have cultivated in this studio. Small group classes, everyone is friendly, encouraging, and a true champion to your growth, and I genuinely enjoy seeing these people multiple times a week. It's a great combination of a workout, physical therapy, and making my muscles and alignment stronger. Cannot recommend them enough!"

"Absolutely love Platform - started in the fall of 2020 and have been going twice a week ever since! As someone who has had 3 knee surgeries and had to retire from soccer and running, this has been a great addition to my routine. Every teacher is friendly and supportive and my body has never looked or felt better!"
