Smiles & Success: Client Reviews That Say It All:
I love the classes! I feel I’m getting stronger. The teachers are great! 4/20/24

I'm addicted to all the classes and teachers here. I started Pilates while recovering from a serious back injury. Katrina took the time to get to know my body and my goals, and came up with a routine that was safe and more effective than any PT I'd tried. I improved so quickly, and was able to move on to more challenging things to build and maintain my strength, flexibility, and balance. There are options available for lots of different price points, schedules, and learning personalities (focused solo attention or more social group interactions). I've now had sessions and classes with almost all the instructors, and would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone."

Everything about my experience at TPS has been wonderful. Katrina is just the best - she listens so carefully, is so knowledgeable about the body, and so skilled at applying that knowledge to the challenges of my particular body. I am getting stronger and more confident in my body day by day. The studio itself is pleasant, bright, comfortable, clean, and perfect for individual or group work. Julie is a master of keeping a very complex scheduling process clear. She makes it both pleasant and easy for clients to sign up for the classes. The various options for participation are responsive to what clients need and want: one-to-one privates, semi-privates, and groups, plus special events from time to time. It’s perfect for me, as a 73-year-old woman with several idiosyncratic physical challenges. Now if only Medicare covered it….! 10/1/24
