• Pilates has introduced me to the concept of core strengh. It improved the alignment of my spinal column, which in turn relieved or eliminated alot of my neck, shoulder and lower back discomfort. As you attempt each exercise you can feel your body as it becomes aware and attempts to adjust to each move.

  • Most of my life my idea of exercise was totally aerobic... running, biking etc. It was out of curiosity I signed up for a private Pilates session about three years ago with Sonia. I was blown away by the changes in my body and how much leaner I have become. I continue to hike the beautiful mountain trails in Phoenix and am so much physically stronger due to my Pilates training. I highly recommend this to anyone who is interesting in improving their core strength, posture and overall health.

  • I was looking for an exercise program that would help my total body but with minimal impact on my joints. Pilates helped in developing and strengthening my core which in turn has helped me in my daily activities. It has helped to increase my body awareness in posture and flexibility.

  • Consistent Pilates workouts have helped me in many ways. Physically, after two very hard pregnancies and two c-sections, I finally found something that works on the one part of my body that was SO hard to get back to normal... my abs. Pilates and core strength building has improved my yoga, running and even makes ice skating easier. When you practice Pilates you automatically have an advantage in any activity that requires balance.

    Mentally, I just feel better when my mid section is strong. I prefer mat Pilates over the machines because you can’t cheat, you have to do all the work yourself. TRY IT! YOU’LL LOVE IT!
