Flourish Pilates is an expansive 1100 sq. foot studio located in the historic Willamette area of West Linn. We are fully equipped with 5 Reformers, 1 cadillac, 2 chairs, 1 ladder barrel, 1 spine corrector, 6 spring-wall units, 2 orbits, 1 Edge, and a variety of resist-a-balls, BOSUs, weighted balls, Pilates rings, and thera-bands.
Flourish Pilates is a professional Pilates studio, and our instructors have gone through the highly revered STOTT PILATES training, or studied with Marie Jose-Blom. Our instructors bring many years of teaching experience and have worked with both healthy populations, and people with various different injuries or conditions.
At Flourish Pilates we work the stabilizing muscles and balance out the body so it is the perfect compliment to other aerobic forms of exercise. We stretch and strengthen the under-utilized muscles, which in turn improves our posture.
Clare Baxter, MPA (Studio Owner & STOTT PILATES certified Instructor)
As a West Linn resident, I’m happy to continue to offer the West Linn community small group classes, top-notch Pilates Instructors, and a beautiful space to relax, stretch, and strengthen. It has been very rewarding to help clients increase range of motion, tone, and decrease or even eliminate back pain. Flourish Pilates is a community gathering place, and it has been rewarding to see close friendships form among clients. Flourish Pilates has both created a sense of community for its’ clients, and has given back to the community at large. In 2008, we held a fund-raiser for PAWS animal Shelter. In the spring of 2011 we raised close to $500 for the American Red Cross and Japan Relief.

Flourish Pilates can assist with back-care, and is ideal for both preventing back related injuries and assisting with most back injuries. We practice healthy movements for the spine, and our goal is to restore the natural curves to help us once again achieve “neutral.” Our “neutral” is the most shock-absorbing and pain-free form of posture where the discs between the vertebrae in our back are evenly spaced. This in turn helps us prevent poor posture-related injuries.
The mission of Flourish Pilates TM is to enrich the lives of its clients by training students how to properly practice Pilates, so that they may successfully reap the benefits of regular Pilates practice and thus thrive, prosper, and FLOURISH. Benefits of on-going Pilates practice include: improving posture, balance, lung-capacity, flexibility, and strength.
