Donation-Based Mat Pilates
UPDATED: July 13, 2026
Breath Core Joy Pilates has enjoyed a wonderful 1+ year since its inception and with the Summer here, we want to meet more of our community.
With community in mind, we are presenting the first iteration of our Donation-Based Mat Pilates Summer Series. Donation-Based models open up access to everyone. Our approach to Pilates is to always accommodate the body we are working with, and with that in mind we will have all-levels friendly offerings.
But why Donation-Based Model? Maria first came across the model back in Santa Monica, California over a decade ago at a yoga studio that does not even exist anymore. Being able to partake in the yoga practice, regardless of the budget 20-year olds’ have, made it possible to stay active. Sometimes she was able to donate $30 if she was good about her finances, other times it was a humble $5. Just the same, she saw others in the class make larger donations, these individuals fully aware that the donation-based model accommodates for all budgets. So those who could afford it, paid not just for themselves but for a friend (or maybe even a stranger). Here in our own backyard of Long Beach we admire and love what Yogalution Movement & Wellness offers and it is invaluable for the community and we want to do the same with Pilates.
Each event will feature a unique collaboration with a small business or two local to the area we are in. Get registered below:
