Pilates in Washington

“The instructors are excellent, there is a large selection of classes, and the multiple locations are convenient. Customer service is also very prompt and helpful. For an organization to care about its clients and have a personal touch is a rarity these days, but RTR has it.“

“I stopped in to buy some cbd at the other business in the room. Prior to that I took a mean fall and hurt myself bad. The ladies working hooked up ice and took care of me and I appreciated it.“

“I worked with Annie almost every week for four months and pretty intensively over the course of six months. Her physical therapy and needling were a miracle. When we began working together I could hardly walk or exercise due to a back issue. I'm completely back to a full exercise routine now and stronger than I was to begin with. This journey was not a straight line of improvement as I had significant setbacks along the way. I will definitely consult with Annie moving forward as I keep exercising because she is so knowledgeable and helpful.

Here is what Annie did that helped so much:
1. Annie really listens. She incorporated the details of what I was doing, what was working or not, and she heard the heart of what I was saying whenever I became frustrated.
2. Annie really watched how I did the exercises and felt the muscles (and whatever else is there) in my back.
3. Because I had a long while when I was improving slowly or having setbacks, it was very important to have someone who observed and understood my situation. Annie did that. I felt that she was totally with me. We did not only talk about exercising, but about how I was moving during the day, how I was sitting when I went out, etc.
4. Annie was concerned to tailor my program to me and what would feel good and motivate me. She made a video of me doing every new exercise with an explanation. She was mindful of keeping me interested and motivated so that I would do my exercises.
5. Even though the needling really worked - a game changer for me - Annie was mindful of not doing it too much and making sure that I could deal with discomfort and temporary glitches when they arose.

I wholeheartedly recommend Annie. I could not have had better care.“

“Can not recommend more highly. Thanks to Ryan I went from a knee replacement diagnosis to playing tennis, pickleball and golf weekly. No surgery, just Pilates and a great trainer. This studio is a jewel. All the instructors are first rate.“

“Tony Touma at CORE is fantastic. He's done more for rehabbing my knee in a few weeks after replacement surgery than Phoenix people did in six months. That's because he spends all his time manipulating my knee and figuring out how my body mechanics are not working a year after surgery. He then gives me the proper exercises to do at home to rebuild my knee strength and flexibility where it is off kilter. Phoenix in Tenleytown just had me doing exercises for the whole 45 minutes I was there and did almost no body manipulation. It was in and out for everyone with little hands on work, especially work that would identify what was wrong. I can't say enough about Tony Touma and CORE.“

“Welcoming environment. Teachers are tuned in to individual needs and challenges and make it fun.“

“I have been practicing yoga for over 30 years at many different studios. Past Tense is as good as they get. Excellent teachers, strong sense of community, and two really nice studio spaces in Mt Pleasant. Very grateful to have in our neighborhood.“

“I’ve been going to SC for 2 years and I love it! The coaches and the community are wonderful. It’s a challenging and rewarding workout!“

“I've been a member for almost 2 years and it's such an addictive healthy habit to pick up. My fav instructors are Shayna (great music selection), Gwendolyn (love her energy), and Damon (kicks your @ss in a good way). Low key, this requires time, energy and a healthy cash flow but it's totally worth the price, the time it takes to find parking (hello, Whole Foods for $free.99). The consistent practice of showing up matters... and it'll show in no time!“

“I've been coming here for several weeks to address a sports-related injury. The staff are very cordial and professional. They've given me my initial set of exercises and have progressively changed them as the impacted area continues to heal and improve. I would recommend them for anyone's physical therapy needs.“

“As someone who has been doing solidcore for 5 years in different cities - this is one of the best locations by far. Coach Alethea is one of the nicest & most thoughtful coaches/humans. She will get to know you, cheer you on throughout the entire class, and let you know that if you don’t want to get on your toes today that’s okay! She is all about listening to your body and being positive - and her classes are top notch. I leave feeling so good and not having to workout again for a couple days to rest my body! Thank you Alethea and all the solidcore coaches I’ve gotten to know!“

“Real reformer Pilates. Always a good workout. Every instructor is different and great in their own way.“

“Scarlett is encouraging/engaging. She gives a challenge and always includes modifications and pays attention to form??❤️??“

“Love SolidCore! The AdMo crew is friendly and encouraging. I’ve been doing this workout for a year now and it’s still just as challenging as the first day I joined. Don’t be intimidated give it a try!“
