All about Rise Pilates summer series 2026
Rise Pilates is kicking off its highly anticipated summer season on Friday, May 29, bright and early at 6 a.m. at Oak Street Beach.
The brainchild of local pilates guru Olivia Santelli, Rise’s summer series is equal parts a gentle fitness experience, and opportunity to make new friends.
The program offers a fun-filled, friendly environment open to Pilates enthusiasts of all experience levels.
Each weekly event begins with a pre-class beach hang, including free samples from event sponsors and other engagements.
Immediately following is the main event, a 45-minute class guided by Santelli.
Afterwards, guests can stick around for a relaxing sound meditation as the sun rises over the horizon.
And here’s the best part—every class is free and open to the public!
Guests need only RSVP for their desired dates, and bring a few recommended supplies:
- Yoga mat
- Water bottle
- Good vibes!
