Making YOU a
priority since 2012…
BK Pilates began with a single studio in Brooklyn and a simple mission: to help people feel stronger, more connected, and at home in their bodies. Today, we’ve grown into a supportive Pilates community with studios across New York and the Carolinas.
Our classes are rooted in thoughtful movement and led by instructors who meet you where you are – offering challenge, support, and encouragement in every session.
Marina Kaydanova, BK Pilates Founder
While working in the corporate world, Marina started taking Pilates classes several times a week and fell in love with it. Her life was forever changed and she wanted to share her love of Pilates with others, so in 2012, she opened the first BK Pilates studio in Brooklyn.
“I feel stronger and happier, now I know I have finally found something truly transformational”, she claims.
why pilates?
I have tried many workout options but pilates has always been my go-to, and a lifestyle commitment.
Not only is it a well rounded exercise system, it compliments any physical and mental activity.
Whether I’m hiking, running a marathon, or skiing I always rely on pilates as my core.
"Pilates is the complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit."
~ Joseph Pilates
