If you’re new to Pilates or returning to your practice, you might be wondering: “How many times per week should I do Pilates to see results?” The answer depends on your goals, lifestyle, and experience level-but at Sharp Pilates, we’ve seen consistent benefits when clients commit to a regular schedule.
The Short Answer: 2-3 Times Per Week Is Ideal
For most people, practicing Pilates 2 to 3 times per week yields noticeable improvements in posture, core strength, flexibility, and overall body awareness. This frequency allows your body enough time to integrate the work while progressing safely.
If you’re looking to:
* Build strength and tone
* Improve flexibility and mobility
* Support recovery from injury
* Reduce stress and increase body awareness
… then 2 to 3 sessions weekly – whether in private sessions, group classes, or a mix – is the sweet spot.
Is Once a Week Enough?
Yes! One Pilates session per week -especially if it’s consistent- will bring noticeable improvements in body awareness, posture, and functional movement. It’s a great starting point if you’re easing into a new routine, managing a busy schedule, or adding Pilates to a broader fitness plan. Many of our clients begin with once-a-week sessions and gradually increase as they experience the benefits.
New to Pilates? Start Slow, Build Steady
If you’re a beginner looking for Pilates in Austin, we recommend starting with 1–2 sessions per week, ideally in a private Pilates setting. This gives you the space to learn the classical method, focus on technique, and develop a strong foundation.
At Sharp Pilates, our New Client Package offers 3 private sessions for $270 -perfect for jumpstarting your practice with individualized attention.

Want Faster Results? Consider 4–5 Sessions Weekly
If you’re preparing for a big event, recovering from an injury, or just deeply committed to your practice, doing Pilates 4 or more times per week can produce transformative results. Our instructors will tailor your program to avoid overtraining and ensure balanced progress.
Listen to Your Body
Joseph Pilates famously said: “In 10 sessions you’ll feel the difference, in 20 you’ll see the difference, and in 30 you’ll have a new body.” Consistency is key – but so is rest. Even with just one session a week, when guided by a qualified instructor and done with intention, your body will begin to move and feel differently.
