Pure Pilates will celebrate Pilates Day on May 2 by hosting its annual Paws and Pilates event in partnership with the Pensacola Humane Society. Free classes will be offered from 9 a.m. to noon at both Pure Pilates locations: downtown Pensacola and Gulf Breeze Proper.

During the event, the studio will be collecting monetary and material donations on behalf of the Pensacola Humane Society.

The animal adoption van will be at the Downtown Pensacola location with the goal of finding forever homes for pets in need.

The free classes to be offered are in Pilates Equipment, Pilates Mat, TRX, Gyrokinesis, Aerial and Yogalates. All athleisure wear and Pilates services will be 20 percent off during the event.

The Pilates Day mission is to foster the public’s appreciation and awareness of the Pilates Method through a network of varied, innovative and high-quality grassroots Pilates events that are accessible and affordable for all.
