Studio FAQs

  • When pre-booking online , please consider the following:

    Cancellations and rescheduling - available any time up to 24 hours before your class

    If an appointment is missed, canceled, or changed with *less* than 24 hours notice, you will be charged full price.

    This policy is out of respect for your instructor as it is unlikely that they will be able to rebook the class on short notice.

    TO CANCEL your spot, login to your account on the web or app if you are not going to make it for any reason–no emails, DMs, or texts are necessary. :)

    Base Moves thanks you for your cooperation and understanding in respecting our policy. We understand that life happens! Kindness and fairness to everyone is so important to us and therefore unable to bend the rules.

  • Hi! We are so happy you are here! Try a private session if you want to get acquainted with the studio before joining a class. Email us to schedule! base.durham@gmail.com

    Totally new to pilates or the reformer? Join our BASE 101 group reformer class! If you are recovering from an injury or need extra attention, we recommend a private session or two. :)

    Have experience in pilates or another movement modality? GO FOR IT and sign up for class.

    REFORMER classes: Make sure you grab the $25 new student special for a single reformer class! It only works once! Base 101 for the foundation stuff! Shape classes are a great starting point. P.E. adds in higher reps and more strength moves. Pilatecize is a fun class with the Jumpboard. Bala Circuit is a high energy strenght and cardio class.
