Function Pilates 2026 access program

Why We Created The access program

The Function Pilates Access Program was created to support women who would benefit from consistent, supportive movement but may feel held back from starting.

Confidence, mental or emotional health, finances, and uncertainty about where to start can all become barriers. Over time, those barriers can keep women from experiencing the benefits of consistent, supportive movement.

The Access Program was created to remove those obstacles and offer her the opportunity to begin — without pressure, judgment, or expectations.

By providing access to classes, structure, and a welcoming environment, this program is meant to support consistency, confidence, and care through movement. It reflects our belief that Pilates should meet women where they are and that sometimes, access is the most meaningful first step.

Here’s How It Works

• Application Period:
  Applications open January 7, 2026 and close January 21, 2026. Applicants may apply for themselves or nominate someone they believe would benefit from the program.

• Review Process:
  All applications are reviewed privately by Function Pilates leadership.

• Recipient Selection:
  One recipient is selected based on readiness, alignment, and potential benefit from the program.

• Recipient Notification:
