Yes, We're OPEN!
Pasadena's Premier Pilates Studio Has Moved Outside and Online
In an effort to provide you the safest studio experience possible, Gold Line Pilates has temporarily moved our entire studio outside to a tent in the parking lot.
COVID UPDATE: Stay-At-Home Order has lifted and we are able to open in a limited capacity. See more COVID updates here: https://covid19.ca.gov/
Covid-Safe Offerings
Outside Classes
Private sessions (one practitioner, one instructor) and group classes (maximum of 6 participants) are available. All sessions are 50 minutes in duration.
Each practitioner will be assigned one reformer and one stability chair for the class. The studio is unable to guarantee your exact equipment choice and position so if you prefer a particular spot under the tent, please come early to stake your claim.
Along with comfortable workout clothes, please keep in mind that the new COVID-cautious studio is outside. While the open-air structure is great for ventilation and mitigation of virus transmission, we are out in the elements so please bring layers to ensure your personal comfort before, during, and after your workout.
The bathroom in the original inside studio is available for use. There is a water cooler inside the building.
No drinks other than straight water are allowed inside the tent.

Studio Operating Policy
Gold Line Pilates was closed on March 15, 2020 by the stay-at-home mandate, but also by the owner’s commitment to our community. Many months later, it’s a difficult time for everyone and emotions are running high. This move to online and outside classes represents a significant shift in the studio’s business plan and a significant shift in Melissa’s comfort zone. The pre-COVID studio was a bustling and dynamic community and a successful small business. With the new plan, we are doing everything we possibly can to address everyone’s needs as sensitively and respectfully as possible.
As such, the studio is asking everyone to adhere to the “be cool and be kind” principle. Let’s focus on the positive and try not to complain about things we can’t control. If you have an issue, please take a deep breath and simply start a dialogue so we can talk it out like reasonable neighbors.
