Pilates near Somerville

“Firstly I LOVE Joanna & Lucy! My favs ??????????

Some classes can be hit or miss and it’s hard to get a booking if you use classpass and transport to this location is a little tricky. But in general I’ve had a great experience here.“

“Simply the best PT I've ever been to and I've been to many over the past 30 years throughout the country and even world. Under the leadership and guidance of Stefanie, they are quite simply a place of healing. A dojo of healing is what I like to tell Stefanie. You have to put in the work like a dojo. They will meet you halfway with the treatments for pain to get you moving but as Stefanie says, movement is the lubricant. You have to put in the work. And under the guidance of their amazing Doctors of PT, you learn how to move correctly, what muscles are weak, what areas of your body are out of line and where there is an imbalance. I honestly don't think there's a business I can recommend like I can recommend this one. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment today.“

“I have taken pilates classes for over 15 years at many different gyms/studios. I never felt more supported, appreciated and always challenged by an instructor as I do with Jenn. She truly loves what she does and has created a wonderful pilates community in this little “town”. I leave every class happy I came, invigorated (sweaty) and always wanting another! If you are new to pilates- Jenn is warm, welcoming and somehow makes even the most challenging movements approachable to anyone.“

“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!“

“Absolutely love down under especially the studio, great location, and even better teachers“

“Passion & Pilates is the first place I ever tried Pilates and I definitely made the right choice. I have always worked out (weights and cardio) and I have found adding Pilates to the mix has improved my flexibility, core strength and balance. My instructor, Michelle, is exceptional. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and patient as she introduces new moves and explains what each one is designed to do. She is also a good listener and easily adapts my routine when I had an injury or limitation. I have also watched other instructors and see that they have trusted relationships with their clients. The studio is clean and modern. I always enjoy being there and feel great when I leave. I am so glad I found Passion & Pilates and highly recommend this studio to others.“

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

“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.“

“I've been coming to Pilates Back Bay for 6 months now and I love it! The studio is beautiful, well equipped, and centrally located. Heather C. is such a fantastic instructor. She is so thoughtful, knowledgeable, and patient. I look forward to our sessions every week. I highly recommend Pilates BB to anyone interested in learning classical Pilates.“

“This past Sunday I was lucky enough to come across a free Pilates class in the North End. Jill was the instructor. The entire hour was great! She kept the motivation going with her high energy, inspiring words and positive attitude! It was extremely humid but so worth it! I will definitely be joining Jill on the green again!“

“I can't recommend Fitlab Pilates enough!
I used to take pilates classes frequently and enjoyed it so much, but I ended up moving and eventually found myself unable to find a studio that I clicked well with....until I found Fitlab.
The environment, community and staff are very warm and welcoming upon entrance. The studio is beautiful, clean and spacious.
I truly enjoy the pace/precision of the reformer classes and the individuality of each instructor. You can tell each class is planned and operated as such but allows for modifications or changes as necessary. Details like that assure me that every instructor is knowledgeable and an expert in their field.
Coming here each week has felt so amazing and I am so happy to be back on the reformer.“

“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!

“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 highly recommend The Body Center Pilates Studio. It is a Woman and privately owned Studio, where Erin, the Owner and an Instructor, truly cares about her Clients, their satisfaction. She is purposeful in increasing her Clients strength with each class. I have been a studio member (8 classes/month) for over 8 months, and with Erins' help, I have increased my core strength 10 fold and counting.

Erin, is a superb, experienced Pilates instructor who makes every class both fun and challenging. She methodically talks her students through every position while explaining how each move strengthens, open and stretches each muscle group. I have also met alot of new Pilates friends and highly recommend this Studio.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Sonja and the rest of the Pilates Lab team are experts in their field. As a pelvic floor therapist, we trust Pilates Lab with some of our most complex patients because of their therapeutic approach to pilates. They are not a one size fits all type of pilates studio. They really know their anatomy and cater to their clients' dysfunctions. We feel so lucky to have them down the street from us because we can't imagine sending our patients anywhere else! Thank you Sonja for providing such an inclusive pilates studio in Boston!“

“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!“

“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!!“

“While we all loved Core de Vie when it was on Charles Street it has been closed since the winter of 2020 despite what the Google listing says. I am the co-owner of the new business now located at 40 Charles Street ~ Blackstone's of Beacon Hill“

“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!“

“I am so grateful I found Boston Back Rehab Center. I went to Boston Back Rehab after 10 years of chronic back pain. Through a combination of dry needling with Fay, massage therapy with Yinh, and the Zoom pilates sessions I finally got rid of tension I'd had in my back for over 10 years. The sessions at Boston Back Rehab is the best solution I have found that has helped me alleviate my back pain. Thank you!“

“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.“
