Discover what your body can do.

When I first entered Rachel’s Pilates studio over eight years ago, I thought I knew a lot about Pilates.  I had been going to other studios for five years.  Soon enough I understood that my prior instructors were not paying attention to me and that I was doing many exercises incorrectly. She watches me carefully and will correct me when I am not doing an exercise correctly.  We work on the reformer but we also work on the mat.  I have learned the importance of breathing.  Rachel has also helped me find my feet and that was actually difficult because I have had foot surgery.  She’s helped me get out of pain, improved my balance and posture and stopped bone loss.  Rachel is very supportive and encouraging.

Years after my second knee replacement surgery, I still had pain in my knee with standing from a sitting position.  I thought I would simply have to suffer for the rest of my life. I was referred to Rachel by a friend who reported she had success with a similar issue after working with Rachel.It took me several sessions and relearning how to breathe properly, but the pain disappeared!  I learned that all parts of the body really are connected.  By concentrating on my body’s dynamic systems, Rachel was able to help me heal myself.  I’m so grateful for Rachel’s interventions.  She is kind, caring and thoughtful.  I’m learning more than ever and becoming stronger with each session

I was referred to her about a year ago as I was having chronic hip pain that was impacting my sleep (side sleeper here!). She specializes in using Pilates and breath work to address a variety of issues. I’m not being hyperbolic when I say she is so intuitive and has transformed my body- I have no more hip pain, I’m stronger, leaner and overall healthier. She works with a lot of people in midlife who need some “tuning up”, and my 81 year old mom is also a client!

Rachel has restored my whole body. I felt sore and unbalanced. My shoulders hurt and I was experiencing carpel tunnel in my right wrist. After practicing Pilates with Rachel once a week for only a few months, I am 100% better and can't believe I am PAIN FREE!! Rachel is so knowledgeable about Pilates, and explains the concepts very well. She is caring and patient, while encouraging and motivating. Thanks Rachel!!!

Rachel gives her all to every Pilates session. She is patient, encouraging and tailors the workout to each client. I always feel elongated and stretched after the session, coming away with more energy. And the best thing of all — I've lost inches in my waist, hips and stomach!

After my first session with Rachel, I felt instant results and quickly started grasping the Pilates method. By the fourth session my body was changing for the better. I stand taller, my core is getting stronger, and my body is a lot more flexible. She has so much patience, and is such an understanding, knowledgeable teacher. I look forward to each session.

Rachel’s instruction has truly transformed my body. Not only has my posture improved dramatically, but my entire body feels better than ever. I’m more toned, flexible and I have abs I never thought I had! Rachel is extremely encouraging, patient and positive. A stickler for technique, Rachel is never shy in correcting my form.
