Sculpt and Strength Class Hoboken: Pilates Meets Weight Training

SCULPT AND STRENGTH is what happens when SpringSculpt meets serious weight training. If you have been doing Pilates and want more resistance work, or if you lift and want to add Pilates structure and precision to your strength training, this is where those two things meet.

What the Class Looks Like

SCULPT AND STRENGTH is 50 minutes structured around five segments: a dynamic warm-up, a full-body circuit combining SpringSculpt movements with compound and isolation lifts, a targeted burnout focused on one muscle group (glutes, arms, or core — rotates by class), core training, and a SpringSculpt finisher. Dumbbells range from 10 to 30 pounds. You choose your weight at check-in, and the instructor will guide you.

The movements are not standard gym exercises performed on a mat. They are SpringSculpt-informed — which means the emphasis is on alignment, stability, and controlled strength through full range of motion. The same attention to form that makes Pilates effective is applied to every dumbbell movement in the class. You will work hard. You will also move well.

Who This Class Is For

Ken Pilates recommends having some SpringSculpt experience before joining SCULPT AND STRENGTH — not because it is inaccessible, but because the form demands are higher when weights are involved and some familiarity with the basic sequences helps. If you are completely new, start with SpringSculpt Fundamentals or a standard SpringSculpt class first.

If you already train with weights and want to understand how to integrate precision, stability, and core-first mechanics into your strength work, SCULPT AND STRENGTH will change how you lift. Grip socks are required.
