Pilates near Somerville

“I love Club Pilates Club Pilates at Assembly Row, Somerville and try to attend 5 classes per week. The instructors are a pleasure to work with and are all great. They are very knowledgeable, offer variations of the exercise to fit your need, are very attentive and friendly. The front desk ladies are also extremely helpful and ready to assist with whatever you need. I am not a fan of exercising but have joined several different classes and gyms, and always found excuses not to go. But as I age, I find that I need to keep moving to avoid the aches and pains. I became a member of Club Pilates in January, and except for vacations and a few days of not feeling well, I have been going consistently. I no longer make excuses not to go, because I enjoy the classes very much and look forward to my next class. I highly recommend giving Club Pilates a try with their 30 minute introductory class.“

“Best experience at Boston Health & Wellness. I had been experiencing tons of issues in my upper body, and 6 weeks of PT has me feeling tremendously better! Looking forward to future appointments with the team here to continue to feel good and strong!“

“The most holistic place I have ever done personal training. Health focused, scientifically minded, and performance and outcomes driven. Kaylee is an incredible trainer and physical therapist, and the rest of the staff at C3 shines as well. Chi, the owner of the gym brings together many years of personal and professional experience with high level athletic training, and imbues this knowledge into his team.“

Her instructions are easy to follow, and her energy is infectious.If you're in Boston and want to transform your body and mindset, check out Jill's Pilates videos. You won't regret it!“

“Jennifer and her pilates method have been my go-to favorite workout method since I discovered her class right after having my first baby. She is delightful to work with and makes it so easy and fun to get an effective workout that makes you feel good and strong. Im so thankful for her online library but also love the opportunity to take a class in her beautiful Charlestown studio.“

“Laura is amazing! I do semi-private Pilates trainings at the studio and it’s been wonderful. Laura is so knowledgeable about fitness and her hands on instruction has been transformational. Also the studio is always immaculate!“

“Working with Olga has been an amazing experience at a time when I have not been feeling great in my body. She is thorough and intuitive in her approach. I appreciate her helping reduce pain and get back to a stronger body.“

“Beautiful, calming space. Great class with Gina- challenging, centering, grounding. ?“

“Thanks to Kate and her amazing team including Cilla and Angie at FitLab, my physical condition feels better at 44 than in the previous 20 years. I’m forever grateful for their expertise and kindness in showing me how much Pilates could restore and improve my mobility, stability and strength, and enhance surfing, snowboarding, and even just living with better posture, and less back pain and discomfort.“

“Movement Remedies has been fantastic for me. I have dealt with many injuries and surgeries over the years and Pilates work for pain sufferers has been huge I’m returning me to regular activity. In the past I have engaged in very intense workouts only to frequently experience setbacks in my pain experience. Movement remedies not only makes me body feel great but it is an intense and nightly targeted workout! DK is am amazing instructor and friend and is so knowledgeable about the body and how to make sure you get exactly what your body needs!“

“I took my first ever Pilates class here about 6 months ago and I haven’t stopped since. The teachers are amazing - particularly as a beginner, they made the learning process really encouraging. I’ve felt more and more confident with each class and most importantly, so much stronger. I suffer from chronic back issues and these classes (generally 2x/week) have improved my overall health so much. I am so grateful to this studio and each of its teachers!“

“I have been taking group classes at Healthy Changes Pilates for 5 years and during the pandemic started woking with Erika individually. Working with her has been truly a wonderful experience. She brings incredible knowledge, competence and depth of experience to each session, which I am greatly appreciative of. She is quick to assess strengths and weaknesses and works with the areas that are in need of strengthening while continuing to strengthen the entire core. I tell her she is a miracle worker as she knows how to work around an injury and has me feeling better at the end of a session. Through working with her I have come to better understand how my body muscles function, have gained strength and flexibility, and I feel and look fit!

I am so glad to have the opportunity to work with her. I highly recommend Erika and Healthy Changes Pilates to any pilates enthusiast!

“I have been training with Kathleen since she was at her previous studio so at least 6 years. I started with her afternoon mat classes but once I injured my back and was done with PT I started private training with her on the suggestion of my PT to help continue the progress and my rehab. She listened, moved at an appropriate pace for me and with time and perseverance my back is feeling better.I have stuck with Pilates training, even doing Zoom mat sessions during the pandemic as and this surprised me I love it. I see Kathleen privately one day a week and participate in a semi-private group with my husband on another day. My husband also does a private but with Larry… note he only started training as he wanted to see what I was so excited about and why I was fitting into my clothing better.The studio itself is lovely, light and spotless. You can tell that both Kathleen and her business partner, Larry (who is fabulous as well), really care about the space.“

“Patti is a gifted practitioner. She has a remarkable breadth of knowledge that she brings to each of our sessions. While she always has a plan for each session, she is able to pivot easily to address a specific concern I have that day. I have worked with a number of practitioners over the years and Patti is by far the best!!“

“I have been working with Helena for about two years and she is just an awesome instructor and educator. She always explains things (how your body works and where is the source of the problem), and gives instructions in an effective and intuitive way to make sure you can get them and exercise in the right way.

I came to her as I notice that I have a chronic problem with my right knee—it would hurt whenever I took a long walk or run. After my training with her and adjusting the ways I use my legs and feet, I don’t even remember when was the last time my right knee bothered me. Moreover, I can feel my body much better now. Before, I felt my body was like a whole piece. Whenever I moved, I moved everything together unconsciously and if I didn’t feel well, I could not ever identify exactly where the problem was. Now I can feel parts of my body better and better and can coordinate them by focusing on specific parts. I definitely consider myself lucky having the chance to work with her!“

“Erin has done an excellent job at intuitively understanding my goals and back issues limitations to come up with an individualized Pilates program. In the past, I’ve experienced a wide variety of PT and used a strength trainer, but I her Pilates has been the most beneficial of all modalities. Before Body Center, I never really understood Pilates, but now I highly recommend it if you are looking to get a handle on improving core strength, posture and flexibility.“

“They are the best in Boston and have saved my body and my back! During this sheltering at home the classes are keeping me sane and a super workout! Love you ladies!“

“This is a great studio but one thing that keeps me from coming more often is that it is only hot yoga. I wish there was at least some normal or lower temperature classes offered here. I don't always do well with a 90+ degree heat combined with the strenuous flow. I love the teachers and the challenging flows though - the best studio in the surrounding area! Please consider a "warm" or normal classes. Thank you!“

“Community yoga with Karen is excellent. She knows her stuff and is very good at explaining the different poses as well as modificaitons. I felt very calm and relaxed after. Would highly recommend it!“

“As a dance instructor and choreographer for over 28 years, I know how great of a work out Pilates can be. It is perfectly designed for the dancers body, emphasizing strength, stretch and control, so when my Mom said she had started classes at Mind in Motion Pilates Studio, I felt that I'd like to give it a try as well. Let me just say, I had no idea the transformation that would take place. I had abdominal surgery that left me with very little muscle control. Not only has working with the Mind in Motion instructors increased my core strength, it also helped me regain control I had lost due to my surgery; control my doctors weren't sure I'd ever have again. I went to Mind in Motion hoping to get a bit of a 'work out' and instead transformed my body. Li has a profound understanding of the body and instructs diligently to insure proper placement, breath, and engagement. The staff is knowledgeable and motivating, the studio is spotlessly clean, and the equipment is top notch. If your looking to just 'exercise' then go to a gym. If your looking to learn True Pilates and change your body, then go to Mind in Motion Pilates Studio.“

“Both my husband and I have been taking Pilates lessons with Mara for a while and Highly recommend her! She is super professional, have an in depth knowledge of Pilates and other movement type methods. She is also super helpful in situations of specific injuries/sensitivities. Mara is also fun and engaging in her teaching style, being able to pay individual attention even when working in groups.“

“Swan is amazing! I've had private Pilates sessions at many locations around the country, and her teaching techniques far surpass any others! After years of practicing Pilates - both machine and mat - I learned form from Swan that vastly improved my practice beginning with our first class. She doesn't just take you through the Pilates routine - she teaches you posture, proper muscle movement, body alignment and techniques that take the workouts to a different level. I stand, walk and and do other workouts differently (and more effectively) now thanks to Swan's tips for improving my Pilates workout. If you are looking for a great Pilates session and techniques to take your workout to the next level, I highly recommend booking classes at LYON Pilates!!“

“I have taken private pilates with Sonja for years in studio and virtually, and was thrilled to follow her when she opened The Pilates Lab to continue my sessions. Aside from being sunshine in human form, Sonja is an absolute genius when it comes to the body. She has helped me recover from injuries, manage my scoliosis, and achieve all of my goals. I'm stronger and more body-aware than ever before. Sessions are therapeutic and challenging and Sonja somehow knows what my body is needing the second I walk through the door without me saying a word. I've even been able to avoid chronic migraines by practicing releases that Sonja's taught me. Easily the best Boston-based trainer I have worked with and quite possibly the most beautiful studio I've ever worked out in.“
