Atlas Pilates

Teresa Shupe started Atlas Pilates in a small rented room in Seattle 2008 after teaching Pilates in big studios for over 15 years. She knew from experience how Pilates could change lives for the better, and she set out to prove that it was not just for the elite, that the highest quality Pilates could be accessible and affordable.

The Pilates method is rooted in the idea that humans of all ages are remarkably resilient and capable of growth and recovery. Effective Pilates workouts are revitalizing for the body and mind. The system consists of a well-defined series of progressive exercises to be performed with control at a brisk pace in the right order.

Our expert instructors have taught hundreds of interactive online Pilates workouts this year, and the response from clients has been overwhelmingly positive. We offer personalized Privates and Semi-Private Workouts with your favorite teachers by appointment six days per week. Interactive personalized Private online lessons are a lot like you experience in our studio, but you workout in your own space.

Atlas Pilates clean and bright studio is fully equipped with classical Pilates apparatus. The interior design emphasizes pure function, allowing you to focus on the work and maximally benefit from our personal Pilates instruction. Our Gratz Pilates exercise apparatus was fabricated in strict accordance with the original specifications of Joe Pilates and he spent more than 30 years using the same designs in his own studio.

Atlas Pilates studio is located at the intersection of 3rd Ave and Cedar Street in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood. We're on the ground floor of the Alto Apartments building near Seattle Center and the Space Needle. There is (usually) abundant street parking and surface parking. 3rd Ave is Seattle's most active bus corridor and there are many public transportation options.
