As a first time mom, I COMPLETELY understand many of the stress points related to bringing your baby out in public. Will it be too loud? Will there be a place to park the stroller? If my baby cries, will everyone be looking at me? Can I breastfeed comfortably here? How are the changing tables? The list goes on and on. The Mommy & Me Pilates Charity Event has been curated to support MOTHERS and BABIES. During pregnancy and postpartum, it can feel so lonely. As you meet the new you, it can be hard to push yourself to also try out a new form of exercise, especially around people you don’t know. Instead of letting the inner voice in us to get so loud we miss out on true connection, take this as your sign to say YES. YES you can nurse your baby here. You forgot your nursing cover? I brought 2, use mine. YES there will be a place to park your stroller. You forgot your mat? Luckily my car is full of them! Your baby is crying during the class ? Girl SAME. I hear you, I see you, and Im with you. This class is developed 100% for all walks of moms. Pregnant in any trimester, never done Pilates before, the Pilates princess, postpartum moms (if approved by medical professional), and moms of toddlers! I am doing this for YOU. If you’re new to town, DM me. Let’s get coffee before. Ill be your friend. I hope to see you on April 25th 🫶🏼Button

There’s a lot of fear mongering around pregnancy in Pilates and (dare I say) in the Pilates community in general. As an instructor, I was taught to be overly cautious towards pregnant women for a variety of reasons that after I encountered several pregnant clients and became pregnant myself, it didn’t resonate! Now don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely good to modify throughout pregnancy and Im not going to be teaching you lying down prone exercises past 1st trimester. All modifications should be done out of the best interest of the mom in front of you and what feels good to them in their body. This one point stresses the idea that Pilates is in fact one of the most consistently beneficial forms of movement in any stage of life. Growing a baby, postpartum, 30-flirty-and-thriving, or 80-for-brady (LOL). If you are currently pregnant, talk to your medical professional for approval prior to joining any physical activity. If they are good with it, and you’re good with it, Id love to see you on April 25th 🫶🏼Button

As most of you know, I’ve taken a pretty long break from Pilates since becoming a mother. Since having a daughter of my own, my entire outlook on my life, purpose, career, and my relationships has shifted. It’s led to more conversations with God, more research and questions on everything related to raising a child in today’s world, and more time looking at myself in the mirror asking “Is this the example I want to set for her?”. With that said, I’ve been praying about doing work bigger than myself and thus curated the idea of: “move better. do better.” With every private booking from here on out, 5% of the total proceeds will be donated to a charity partner. For every annual public charity event, 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the charity partner we are working alongside with to put on the event. As we are still in the works of this new development, our first partner(s) are @1hopeforkids @newbraunfelsfostercloset . Our first event will be on April 25th in New Braunfels, Texas @krausescafe for MOMMY & ME PILATES ! Tickets become available Monday, March 10th. Happy International Women’s Day 🤍Button

Come along with me to a ✨MOBILE✨ private session !! If you have a reformer at home, we come to YOU ! It’s so common for Pilates fanatics to purchase equipment, use it for a bit, then it becomes a very expensive place to hold boxes and other things. Let’s make use of your investment together !! 👏🏼🤩Button

✨Meet Your Instructor / Owner✨ My name is Reese Leffingwell , your personal instructor for events and sole owner of Pura Pilates ! Owning my own studio has been a dream of my from the beginning and Im happy to say we are just getting started! Pilates came into my life following devastating injuries I sustained from competitive cheerleading in 2018. I had to make a change when chronic pain was introduced into my daily life and Pilates reduced my pain, increased my mobility, and made me feel stronger than I’ve ever felt! Ever since, all I’ve wanted to do is share this gift of movement with any and everyone! You’re welcome here, I can’t wait to move together 🤍✌🏼 contact us: reese@purapilatestx.com www.purapilatestx.comButton

☼ ALAMO 17 ELITE ☼ Had the incredible opportunity to teach these sunshine girls coached by a lovely client/friend of mine. Swipe left to hear the joy & laughter these girls brought to their mat class in replacement of a practice after a big tournament! I wish I would’ve gotten it on film, but when they were on the struggle bus one of the girls yelled “BEAST” and they all continued to root for each other! So cool to see them practice their team dynamic in all they do. What a blessing to be able to share pilates with strong, motivated young women! ♡ #yourewelcomehere #purapilatesButton

This service is absolutely NEEDED on any sort of girls trip or bachelorette trip!! We absolutely will be booking again for our next girls trip or bachelorette!! Book it ASAP!!!"
