Frequently Asked Questions
View all FAQsWhich price is right for a group class at The Contrology Studio, $30 or $42?
Two figures circulate: a $30 drop in and a $42 single group class, which is valid for one week. Budget $42 and ring (805) 869-9938 to check the lower rate.
Which group pack makes sense for a Santa Barbara regular?
The 20-pack at $600 is the cheapest per class, $30 each, but it expires four months after purchase, so it only pays off if you come more than once a week. The 10-pack is $320 over three months and the 4-pack is $140 over two months. Anyone coming weekly will waste less with the 10-pack, even at a higher cost per class.
How does a new client get started at The Contrology Studio?
Book the complimentary 25-minute Discovery Session, a studio tour plus a talk about goals. New clients then buy the New Client 3-Pack of Private Lessons before joining groups.
What do private lessons cost on West Mission Street?
Singles are $65 for a 25-minute lesson. Packs run $195 for three, $600 for ten and $1040 for twenty. A $125 private figure also circulates, so confirm its length.
Is the teaching classical or contemporary Pilates?
Classical. The Contrology Studio teaches classical Pilates, and its YouTube channel, @beverlyo.PILATES, gives a fair preview of the style before you visit.

Weekdays span 7am to 7pm, so early and after work visits both fit. Saturday is 8am until 12pm, and Sunday the studio stays shut.
