Pilates near Tualatin

“Love this place! The other class attendees and all the instructors are so kind and talented. Great exercise for all ages and abilities.“

“The Lake Oswego YogaSix community is truly unmatched. From the knowledgable teachers to the kind staff, my day is certainly not complete without taking some kind of yoga class here. I love the variety of classes offered throughout the day and the studio is consistently clean and well managed. I'm always introducing friends to this specific studio because I truly want everyone to experience the gift that is YogaSix!“

“Although every place has its quirks, the benefits of coming here significantly outweigh any drawbacks. I've been attending this location on and off for the last ten years, adjusting my membership based on changes to my schedule. I appreciate the hygiene protocol here that requires wiping down equipment after use. While not everyone is thorough, I make a concerted effort because I believe in karma. For the sake of honesty, my only true issue with this studio--and with basically any yoga, Pilates, or barre class in Portland--is that they can feel crowded or even overcrowded sometimes, which diminishes the grounding aspect of the experience for me. Jo is my favorite instructor because of her distinctive approach and welcoming nature. She makes a point of greeting everyone, even if they're attending another instructor's class. During sessions, she actively corrects forms and explains the reasons behind her adjustments. Her charming and clever expressions only enhance the experience. She genuinely cares for everyone present. Unfortunately, I can't take her classes currently due to a change in my schedule but if I had my old schedule, I'd sign up for hers right away. A close second favorite would be Kerri. This place feels like a blend of physical therapy and fitness, providing a beneficial yet gentle workout. It's refreshing to leave a session feeling satisfied without the frustration of needing an additional workout to truly feel like you've had a strength session.“

“Dorothy is a fabulous Pilates teacher. She pays attention to every detail, whether it's what is ailing her students on any given day or ways that we can use our bodies to get more out of a movement. She corrects precisely but non-judgmentally. She knows her craft and seems to take great pleasure in sharing the benefits of Pilates with others.“

“One of the best things I’ve ever done in the last 17 years of my life has been to visit Studio Blue twice a week. Keeps me young and flexible!“

“Small class size and personal attention with varied exercises from class to class. Focus on proper Pilates techniques is always stressed. ?“

“Kelli is hands down one of my favorite people!! I met her when I started Pilates for the first time with her about two years ago. I had mixed feeling about Pilates and wasn’t sure it was for me as I’ve always lifted weights and done cardio instead. I am absolutely obsessed with it!!! She has been with me now through a broken ankle and hip surgery and I am stronger then I ever was doing the other exercises. Our workouts are never the same and always as challenging or easy as my body needs them to be. I actually quit physical therapy for both incidents because the knowledge and experience Kelli brings to the reformer is insane. I healed quicker and better with her. I cannot recommend her and Total Body Pilates enough. Plus I came out with a best friend who I adore!“

“Jonathan did a great massage. He was very knowledgeable about the relationship between the body, muscles, and fascia. My lower back was feeling tight prior to the massage; but afterwards was feeling a lot more loose. After the appointment, he sent materials over email regarding various exercises I could do to help my back“

“Katona Pilates is the BEST pilates studio in Portland area. If you want to learn Pilates this is the only place to go. I've been going here for years and am still learning and improving. I always feel stronger and taller when I'm going regularly to KP. They are very experienced and knowledgeable.“

“Love working with Dorothy at Springwater Pilates Studio in SE Portland! Great workout! She's experienced, offers modifications & clear explanations of the exercises in our group reformer class. The studio is very clean and easy parking. Highly Recommend!!!“

“Barbara came recommended to me from a couple of other individuals that had used her services - so once my neck pain started I immediately called for an appointment for some therapeutic massage. Before I left I could actually turn my head all the way to the side - a feat that was impossible and very painful when I walked in just an hour before hand! I would say that Barbara has "magical hands" - she has truly affected my health and well being - and for that I am grateful! Over the year my husband and I have scheduled monthly wellness massages as well - and recommend Barbara to everyone we know! Even if you have to drive a bit farther to see her - she is well worth it!!“

“Lynn is the most amazing and inspirational coach you will find. She tailors your workouts to your individual needs and goals. No judgment about your skill level and no hard selling. She's really devoted to helping you be more healthy and strong. I've worked with her 2-3 times per week for over 3 years and can't say enough about how much I enjoy her sessions. Do yourself a favor and book a session today.“

“Going to Portland Parks & Rec yoga classes for years, I finally spoke up to a yoga instructor about tightness in my hips that has made me wonder "why can't I bend at the hips like other people?"I have never done any "alternative therapy" healing or any healing because I successfully care for myself, am healthy, on no medications and have only seen a doctor once in the last 30 years for an injured knee.Well, the instructor praised Shelly Stephenson as a resource. Wow! What a smart, knowledgeable, good-humored, effective, disciplined and down-to-earth practitioner! That Shelly (in a former life) was an accomplished dancer lends factual credence that she knows the human anatomy, not just from books, coursework and clinical settings, but also from her personal artist-athlete experience.I did 10 structural integration sessions with Shelly, and Shelly did all the work. My body flows like it hasn't flowed since I was a teenager.One day, after a session with Shelly, I noticed that I take short little steps when briskly walking, and realized that was my bodys learned compensation for deficiencies elsewhere and I could now take longer strides with ease. I had never had that perspective before.On the basketball court, for the first time, I could dribble between my legs as the length of my stride was enough to now allow the ball to pass through. That was another recognition that my body has changed, more optimally, its relationship with itself.And yoga? In the mirrors, though I see some poses done well, many more difficult asanas are now accomplished better and I have much more grace of movement and range of motion. I feel good.I am hip.And for you, if Shelly sees that a different approach will be better, she will gladly refer you to someone of quality she knows in the vast world of Portland's healing modalities. She is honest, practical and insightful. I am glad I went to her, the whole experience left quite a positive impression on me.Thank you, Shelly.“

“After a car accident a few years ago, one of my providers suggested seeing Katherine at Core Pilates. I had a lot of fear about getting active again, but seeing Katherine really helped me overcome it. I can't imagine my life without classical Pilates now! The space is great and has lots of equipment, which I appreciate for having varied routines each time I go in.“

“Excellent class. This is the first time I have worked with this instructor but I liked her a lot! Great workout!“

“Yoga riot is a welcoming, cozy space with a great community of teachers and students! My body always feels great after class and the teachers are sure to remind everyone to make any modifications needed. The space is small so be prepared to sweat close to strangers!“

“Great instructor who provides lots of individual guidance and modifications! Very knowledgeable and especially informed about post surgical recovery. Great sense of humor !“

“My legs feel like jello and I stretched muscles I didn’t even know I had. I feel like I got a great workout that is going to get me toned!“

“Michelle D is one of the best, if not THE BEST Pilates instructor at Club Pilates, Cedar Hills. Her Cardio Sculpt class is fun, exhilarating, and challenging all at the same time! She does an amazing job of inspiring and keeping us motivated the entire class! Cheers to Michelle! -Eileen B“
