About Lift Pilates
Lift Pilates is a classical Contrology studio built on structured, progressive development.
Unlike most Pilates studios — contemporary or classical — Lift Pilates does not divide clients into level-based classes. Each client follows an individualized program within our Guided Studio setting, progressing through the full system over time.
The work is sequenced. The rhythm matters. Progression is earned.
This is not drop-in fitness. It is disciplined practice.
About Laura Shearer
Laura Shearer has taught Pilates for over two decades and trained extensively in the classical method, including graduate-level study with Jay Grimes, a direct student of Joseph Pilates.
Her studio model reflects that lineage: structured, comprehensive, and rooted in the integrity of the full system.
After years of teaching and refining her approach, she built Lift Pilates around individualized programming within a guided open studio format — a model designed for long-term development rather than short-term workouts.
