Portrait of Lisa Kenworthy, founder of Denver Pilates Girl
Lisa Kenworthy · founder

I built Denver Pilates Girl on one quiet conviction: people move better when they're paying attention.

My studio is small on purpose. By appointment. One reformer in front of me at a time, or two clients moving side by side. Nothing rushed, nothing performative. We work through the classical Pilates repertoire — the work Joseph Pilates himself called Contrology — and we let the exercises do what they were designed to do: build a body that's strong, supple, and aware of itself.

I'm a lifelong learner. I take a Pilates lesson every week — yes, I'm still the client too — because the best teachers I know never stopped being students. I attend continuing-education workshops on biomechanics, spinal conditions, and how the body moves through every plane of motion. I bring all of that to your session.

If you're new to Pilates, we start with three private intros. I want to understand what your body is doing before I send you into a group. If you're returning after a surgery, a pregnancy, an injury, or a few years of life — we'll meet you there too.

In a session with Lisa

What it feels like.

01

We start with a conversation.

Your goals, your history, the last thing your body did this week. I take notes. We adjust as we go.

02

We warm up — gently.

Footwork on the reformer, breath, alignment. I'm watching how you move, not how hard you can push.

03

We do the work.

Classical sequences scaled to where your body is today. Cues are specific, hands-on if appropriate, and unhurried.

04

We close, and you leave with notes.

A short summary of what we worked on and what to think about until next time. So you remember when you're back in your week.
