What to Expect
SAVOR at SALTVAULT of San Diego is a high-energy mat-based Pilates class held in a heated studio, typically 95–105°. This class blends Pilates principles with interval-style training to create a cardio-focused experience that emphasizes endurance, strength, and total-body conditioning. The heat supports circulation and flexibility while helping maintain intensity throughout the workout.
Set to energizing, musically driven playlists, SAVOR moves faster than traditional Pilates. Expect dynamic sequences, purposeful transitions, and repeated intervals that elevate heart rate while remaining low-impact and joint-friendly.
Infrared
SAVOR uses infrared heat to warm the body gently from the inside out. This type of heat supports improved circulation, helps muscles activate more efficiently, and enhances overall comfort during higher-energy movement. The consistent warmth allows participants to maintain performance through intervals while moving with control and stability.
Hot Pilates
SAVOR is a heated Pilates class with a HIIT-inspired format designed to build cardiovascular endurance alongside strength. The elevated temperature intensifies movement and supports sustained effort, helping activate muscles quickly without relying on jumping or impact. This class emphasizes athletic conditioning, stamina, and full-body engagement.
Musically-driven
Music plays a central role in the SAVOR experience at SALTVAULT. Each class is musically driven, with intervals and movement patterns aligned with the playlist’s rhythm and tempo. The music helps guide pacing, maintain momentum, and support the energetic flow of the workout from start to finish.
ABOUT OUR SAVOR CLASS
Serving the Greater San Diego County Including Little Italy, San Diego, National City, Bonita & Beyond
SAVOR at SALTVAULT of San Diego is designed for guests who want a more athletic, cardio-focused Pilates experience. Classes combine strength-based mat work with interval-style sequencing to challenge endurance while maintaining control and alignment. Props such as light weights, resistance bands, and exercise balls may be used to increase resistance and support varied movement patterns.
This class is ideal for guests looking to elevate their heart rate while continuing to build strength through low-impact, purposeful movement.
The Process
Each SAVOR class begins with a structured warm-up to prepare the body for movement in the heated environment. Participants then move through a series of interval-based Pilates sequences that target the core, legs, glutes, arms, and stabilizing muscles. Instructors provide clear cues and guidance throughout class, emphasizing breath control, efficient transitions, and steady pacing. The class concludes with focused movements and stretching to support balance and recovery.
Improve Relaxation & Circulation
While SAVOR is cardio-driven, the combination of infrared heat and controlled movement helps support circulation and post-class recovery. Many participants experience reduced stiffness, improved mobility, and a sense of physical reset after class. The steady warmth keeps muscles loose and responsive, supporting both performance and recovery.
