Train like a Pro
Athletic Training & Programming
Lisa Schklar, Director of Pilates North, has a long history working with professional and amateur athletes and is commonly referred to by Orthopedic Surgeons, Physiotherapists and Athletic Trainers. As a movement specialist her focus is placed on injury prevention and performance enhancement. Athletes will work directly with Lisa or with one of her trainers one-on-one, or in small-specialized groups. With Lisa’s guidance, all programs will be designed to increase mobility and strengthen areas that are restricted or weak.
Our Approach
Our detailed approach to athletic development has benefited numerous professional athletes, extending their careers and enhancing their performance. Our training is tailored to each athlete’s sport, personal objectives, and natural body mechanics. We pinpoint postural issues, restrictive movements, compensations, and mobility/strength concerns. Based on our assessment, our programming focuses on unwinding and re-patterning the body, preparing it for peak performance in all ranges of motion while ensuring strength and endurance, crucial for optimal performance and injury prevention. We offer ongoing assessments, mobility drills, and year-round recovery/training sessions, both in-person and virtually.

Getting Started
Structural Assessment/Consultation
As an initial assessment, this 90 minute session will include an in-depth discussion of all injuries, previous treatments and your expectations of what you want to accomplish. A trainer will look at your body posture, quality of movement and any structural limitations. Based on the trainers findings, a rehabilitation treatment plan for improved mobility will be suggested.
Injury Consultation
Over the years, we have worked with dozens of clients that are suffering with neurological and neuromuscular disorders. During the initial assessment we will discuss symptoms that are causing pain or weakness and a trainer will focus on testing mobility, strength and balance. By the end of the session trainers will be able to suggest an appropriate treatment plan. Our goal is to improve pro-prioception, strength, posture and mobility.
