About Us

Studio 12 Pilates is Folsom’s premier boutique Pilates studio, created for those who expect more from their movement, and their studio experience. With just 8 reformers per class, our intimate setting allows for personalized attention, thoughtful instruction, and an experience where you’re known by name, not lost in a crowd.

Led by expert instructors, every class is designed to help you move with intention, build strength, and make meaningful progress. From our design-forward space to our curated beverage bar, every detail has been considered to make your time at Studio 12 feel just a little more special.

And the experience doesn’t end when class does. At Studio 12, we believe the best studios are built around people, not just Pilates. We celebrate birthdays, recognize class milestones, surprise our members with little goodies, host appreciation events, dream up playful studio challenges, and create opportunities to connect beyond the reformer.

It’s the kind of place where reaching your 100th class deserves a celebration, birthdays feel extra special, and there’s always something fun happening in the studio. We want walking through our doors to feel like being part of a community that notices your progress, cheers you on, and genuinely loves having you here.

More than a membership, it’s the Studio 12 experience: elevated Pilates, personal attention, thoughtful details, and a community that makes showing up the best part of your day.
