Pilates Core and Gore

Becoming a Pilates instructor in Chicago - a teacher's journey

Curious About Pilates? Wondering What All That Equipment Does? Join us on Monday, October 13, and Tuesday, October 14, for Core and Gore – a fun and informative event where you’ll get hands-on experience with all the Pilates equipment in mini-classes designed to challenge and inspire!

  • The Reformer: Perform accessible yet challenging exercises that show how the Reformer builds strength, flexibility, and control.
  • The Tower: Discover how the Tower (and its big cousin, the Cadillac) can work your muscles in completely new ways. This class introduces creative resistance training and full-body integration.
  • The Chair: Don’t let its size fool you! The Chair offers a powerful workout focused on balance and core strength. In this class, we’ll hone in on abs, stability, and precision.

No experience needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to move. Whether you’re new to Pilates or looking to deepen your practice, Core and Gore is the perfect way to explore and have fun.

Spots are limited. Register in the FFC+ app, or contact Linda at Llunkes@ffc.com or Grace at Ggarza@ffc.com.

FFC Run Club

Runner tying shoelaces.

FFC Lincoln Park is starting up its Run Club again this year! Join us on Saturdays starting July 12 through October 25, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM. All members and guests are welcome to register and join our staff-led sessions. The club is open to all levels, from beginner to intermediate runners.

Each session begins with a dynamic 5-minute warm-up, followed by 20 minutes of power, stability, and strength training that even those who choose not to run can participate in. Then, we run a 5K (3.1 miles) together, ending with breathwork and stretching cooldown.

Runners should wear running sneakers and bring water. Members and non-members are both encouraged to bring friends and enjoy a good time run!

Sign up via the FFC+ App or contact Fernando Sanchez at fsanchez@ffc.com.
