"I’ve been a client at Pilates North for almost six years and I’m completely addicted. All the trainers are fantastic - they are positive, fun and incredibly knowledgeable. They’re more than just trainers - they’re friends. With their guidance and encouragement, I’ve watched my body become stronger and more flexible. I’m hooked!

"I have been training at Pilates North for many years now.  The staff is friendly, caring and very knowledgeable.  The instructors are incredible!  They always know how to guide me to improve how I’m doing an exercise.  I am never bored, unlike at most fitness classes, because the staff is forever introducing new, fun and increasingly challenging exercises.  
When I began taking pilates there were so many things I couldn’t do because of an old whiplash injury.  I had tried many forms of exercise (including pilates at another location) but nothing has made me physically stronger than the classes I receive at Pilates North.

"I began Pilates 4 years ago with an Essential class and have never looked back. Not only do I feel renewed, reenergized, and fit, but with time I have learned to become so well atuned to my body, that I am often able to prevent stress related aches and pains (always a consequence of a busy life) from becoming troublesome or chronic. Rachel and Lisa make me feel a part of their extended family. Their professional staff and welcoming environment are like an oasis in the city where one can truly forget about everything for an hour. As my classes are mostly early ones, I find that the benefits extend well into the day ahead. It is always a surprise at the end of the hour, to look up and see that the class is coming to an end. Can we really be done so soon?!

"I absolutely love coming to the studio and I look forward to my work out every week. I can seriously say that I think I’m addicted to Pilates. I started coming to Pilates North 4 months before my wedding because I wanted to tone up and firm up those “problem areas”. I was finding that no amount of weight training or cardio exercises was helping me target specific areas of my body. I noticed changes in my body and recieved many compliments about my shapely new self. Now I feel confident wearing that kind of clothing. The trainers at the stduio are great because they listen to the clients and they customize the classes around their needs and wants. They are very skilled and pay close attention to the class. Most of all I appreciate that they push you when you need to be pushed but let you off the hook when you’re just not feeling it.

"I come out of a Pilates class feeling energized, strong and taller! Pilates North has helped me gain core strength and balance within my body. I would like to thank the wonderful, knowledgeable and experienced trainers at Pilates North for helping me and continuing to help me with my back injury.
The classes at Pilates North are very unique, for they offer a tremendous support system that is hard to find!!!!

“It had been a few years since I worked out regularly when I joined Pilates North one year ago.  I began attending one class per week on Saturday as a way to force myself to start doing something physical again.  I found the atmosphere non-threatening and comfortable.  I was and am able to follow along at my own pace and modify the exercises to my ability.  I felt a difference within 3 or 4 classes in the way my body felt.  My muscles began feeling much more flexible and I could feel my “core” getting stronger as time went on.  During the summer I decided to move to 2 classes per week, by the end of the session I was feeling great.  Having 2 instructors is beneficial in that in each class, a slightly different approach is used and by the end of the week, you had a really good workout.  My goal is to continue the two classes throughout the winter and some day add a stretch class to supplement the pilates activities.  Joining Pilates North has been a big step for me towards doing something positive for myself.  I am grateful that the classes are offered at various times of the evening to accommodate those who work and that the environment is always pleasant ! “

"Over the last few years of classes with the lovely, well-trained and very knowledgable instructors at Pilates North,  I have increased my strength, stamina and flexibiltiy significantly.  My lower back and neck problems have all but disappeared and I have re-discovered that I have a waistline!  The classes are a definite must for the middle-aged. Not only have I reconnected with my core, I have reconnected with myself.  I feel energized and youthenized and plan to do Pilates well into my old age.
