A Private Class moves you forward faster because I can coach you in real time and fix what’s slowing you down right away. One of the things people mention most about Sole Pilates is that we’re clean, welcoming, and stocked with exceptional equipment, and that matters when you’re trying to stay consistent. In Locust Valley, especially around the Birch Hill area near NY-25A, time is tight and stress is real. Private VR training keeps the momentum going without adding travel to your day. I work with people across Locust Valley, Oyster Bay, Glen Cove, Bayville, Sea Cliff, and Mill Neck who want clear direction, quick wins, and a plan that fits real life.
What a VR Private Class actually is (and why it feels more “hands-on”)
Private VR training is one-on-one coaching delivered online, with me watching how you move and cueing you moment to moment. It’s not a recorded workout and it’s not a group class where you blend into the background. It’s you and me, working on your specific goal, like stronger legs, better control, fewer flare-ups in your back and neck, or simply getting comfortable with the method.
The biggest difference is feedback. In a private class, I’m not splitting my attention across a room. I’m catching small things that create big results, like rib flare, shoulder hiking, or a pelvis that keeps tipping when you fatigue. People often tell me they love how knowledgeable and attentive our instruction feels and how clear the direction is, because it makes hard work feel doable.
Quick reality check: You don’t need “perfect form” to start. You need coaching that meets you where you are and keeps you safe while you build strength.
The benefits of a Private Class you’ll feel in 3 to 6 sessions
I’m careful with promises, but I’m very clear about what this format is designed to do. With consistent sessions and a short home plan, most people notice measurable changes in 3 to 6 focused sessions. That shows up as cleaner technique, less “guessing, ” and a body that starts cooperating instead of fighting you.
1) Faster strength gains because the plan stays tight
People regularly tell us they’ve “gotten so much stronger” in a short stretch of time. A private VR class keeps that same forward pressure, but it’s built around your body and your pace. If your abs and legs are shaking by the end, great. I’m also watching how you got there, so we’re building strength, not just surviving a workout.

2) Less neck and back tension through better control
A lot of Locust Valley commuters carry tension in the same spots: neck, shoulders, low back. I see it all the time. Private coaching helps because I can spot the pattern that’s feeding the tension, then cue you out of it as you move. One person came in with hesitations due to several back and neck issues and shared they’d made “considerable progress” after working patiently with our team. That’s exactly the point of one-on-one work. We go at the speed your body can actually absorb.
3) Better consistency because it fits your week
A private VR class can be easier to keep up with than driving to a session. That matters if you’re balancing family schedules in Birch Hill, or you’re squeezing training around LIRR and highway access for early mornings or after-work time. When your plan is simple and your sessions happen without a commute, adherence goes up. And consistency is where results come from.
4) More confidence because you’re not lost in a crowd
Newer clients tell us they walked in nervous and left feeling like they got a full-body workout and stretch, without feeling embarrassed or behind. A private class doubles down on that. You get the cues you need, in the moment you need them, so you finish the session feeling strong and clear on what you did right.
Is one-on-one VR training the right fit for you?
Private classes tend to be the best fit if you want more attention than a small group can give. It’s also a great match if you’ve been dealing with back or neck issues and you want patient coaching while you learn the method and equipment.
And if you’re the person who likes a challenge but still wants it to feel encouraging, you’ll fit right in. People describe our teaching style as a balance of challenge and support, and that’s exactly how I run private VR sessions too.

Why I do Private Class coaching differently at Sole Pilates (and what $150 covers)
A Private Class is $150, and I take that seriously. People tell us “you will definitely get your money’s worth” and that I “push you to the edge... all the while making it fun.” That’s the sweet spot. You’re challenged, but you’re never guessing what you’re doing or why you’re doing it.
You’ll also notice the details. Our community talks a lot about the studio being spotless, bright, and welcoming, and that same attention to detail shows up in my coaching. Clear cues. Smart progressions. Real encouragement. If you’re advanced, I’ll keep you honest. If you’re new, I’ll keep it simple and build from there.

Private Class FAQs, answered like I’d explain it in session
What is a Private Class in VR online training?
It’s a one-on-one training session delivered online in VR, with me coaching you live. I’ll cue your form, choose the right progressions, and keep the session focused on your goal instead of a general class plan.
How many Private Class sessions will I need to see results?
Most people notice clear improvements in technique, comfort, or performance within about 3 to 6 sessions when they practice consistently between sessions. If your goal is pain reduction or rebuilding strength after time off, I usually recommend starting with that 3 to 6 session window so we can build momentum.
Is a Private Class better than group VR classes for fixing posture or back pain?
For posture and back pain patterns, one-on-one is often the faster route because I can correct the exact thing that’s driving your compensation in real time. In a group format, you can still make progress, but the feedback is naturally spread across more people.
Do I need to own a VR headset to book a Private Class?
Not always. Reach out first and tell me what you have at home. I’ll walk you through the simplest setup options so you’re not buying something you don’t need.
What should I do if I feel motion sickness during a VR Private Class?
Tell me right away. We’ll pause, adjust what you’re seeing in the headset, and keep your movement choices steady and grounded. Most motion sickness improves with a few smart tweaks, like shorter exposure at first and more stable visual settings.
