Making YOU a priority since 2012…

…the year BK Pilates opened its doors to our first clients in our boutique studio in Brooklyn. Since then, we have had various locations from Manhattan to Williamsburg and the Jersey shore, along with our Charlotte, NC studios that opened in 2020. Charleston, SC coming February 2024

While working in the corporate world, Marina started taking Pilates classes several times a week and fell in love with it. Her life was forever changed and she wanted to share her love of Pilates with others, so in 2012, she opened the first BK Pilates studio in Brooklyn.

“I feel stronger and happier, now I know I have finally found something truly transformational”, she claims.

why pilates?

I have tried many workout options but pilates has always been my go-to, and a lifestyle commitment. 

Not only is it a well rounded exercise system, it compliments any physical and mental activity.

Whether I’m hiking, running a marathon, or skiing I always rely on pilates as my core. 

“Pilates is the complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit.” 

~ Joseph Pilates 

Our intimate, bright, and airy studios complete with state-of-the-art equipment offer the ideal setting to explore the practice of Pilates.
