WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING…..

Testimonials2

“Wonderful studio for all levels.  I have a bad back and decided to try Pilates instead of surgery. This studio has it all.  Great trainers that pay attention to my specific needs, very clean equipment [everyone is instructed to wipe down equipment after use - yeah!] and a warm and inviting atmosphere.  Class size is kept small to ensure everyone's needs are met.  Friendly and welcoming.I leave each day feeling I've accomplished something. Try it!”

“I had a 6 year history of chronic neck pain, stiffness and bilateral arm/hand numbness and tingling. I had tried just about every form of treatment, both Western medicine and Eastern and everything in between. I began classes with Joy of Movement and within 6 months with the help of several instructors I found that I was able to move my arms, torso and upper body without using my "neck". The cues given to my by my Pilates instructors have become embedded in my brain....most of the time....I am so grateful for their patience and commitment to help me move freely and finally without the chronic numbness and tingling.”

“About 18 years ago I had back-to-back left knee surgeries. This resulted in ongoing weakness in my left knee that I have dealt with for years. That weakness has affected my walking gait and over this last year I developed chronic pain in my left knee and right hip. Visits to massage therapists and chiropractors did not resolve it.  It was recommended to me to try Pilates and I found Rochelle and her amazing studio not too far from my home. I started twice a week sessions in February and I can say that my hip pain is 100% resolved. My left knee is quite a bit stronger and rarely do I feel any pain.”

“The more than 80 private sessions I have had with Rochelle since February 2010 have made a central contribution to the profound changes I have experienced in my alignment, proprioception, and core activation during this time. Rochelle is a delight to work with. Her warmth and encouragement create a very supportive container for the work, and she conveys her deep knowledge of the Gyrotonic approach to breath, pulsation, flow, and aligned whole-body movement in a variety of ways, including imagery, demonstration, and hands-on guidance. She is also very responsive to questions and to requests for focus on particular aspects of the work."
