AboutCLΛSS

Hi, we’re so glad you found us.

We are Lauren, Hannah, Madi, and Allie, four Guilford women who share one thing in common: a love for movement that actually feels good, and a belief that a real workout shouldn’t require a fancy machine, an intimidating price tag, or a drive out of town.

For years we watched friends, neighbors, and our own community drive to Madison, Branford, and beyond just to find a good mat Pilates or barre class. So instead of waiting for someone else to bring that here, we decided to build it ourselves, right on the Guilford Green.

CLASS is our answer: a boutique Pilates and barre studio at 89 Whitfield Street, built around real strength, real community, and people who are genuinely glad to see you walk in. New to movement or years into it, every class here, from Pilates Mat and Power Barre to Yoga Flow, Yoga Sculpt, and Strength, meets you exactly where you are.

We’re more than a studio. We’re four founders who believed Guilford deserved a place like this, and built it with our own hands, on our own street, for our own community.

Move Well. Live Well. That’s the whole idea.

With love, Lauren, Hannah, Madi, and Allie
