Harmony Pilates

I love Harmony Pilates. I went on the unending rave reviews of a friend who was a long time client. I have a disc replacement in my neck and some shoulder issues and pins in my ankle - but I still want to be fit. I’d had serious issues every time I trained with another personal trainer. Yoga also gave me problems with my neck. I called and Mary the owner answered. I told her I had some issues I wanted private training for that reason and she suggested I train with her to start. That was October. I go twice a week in addition to trail running. Mary knows what she’s doing. I’m never bored. I’ve been very tired and sore but nothing has ever been painful. I’m in the best shape of my life- so much stronger! I’ve also trained with two of her other trainers they were slightly more tentative likely because they weren’t as familiar with my fitness level but didn’t injure me and I still got a good workout. I love Pilates but I also think Mary is just particularly awesome and exceptionally knowledgeable.

Mary is a fantastic Pilates coach. I’ve been working with her for over 2 years and she has helped me to achieve a pain free life, prepare and recover from childbirth, lose weight, tone my muscles, and improve my overall sense of well being. She is technically proficient and has a deep understanding of anatomy and body mechanics. Her background in formal dance informs her coaching style in that she is able to explain in words how to make like small adjustments to your body position to improve your form and avoid injury. She’s helped me recover my diathestisis following my second pregnancy and is now working with me through my third pregnancy. I had terrible back pain that has resolved completely with her training. When covid hit we started working together virtually over Skype. I’ve really enjoyed these sessions and find they are just as effective as in person training. Finally, Mary’s warm and positive personality make her a joy to work with and a welcomed break from social distancing during this pandemic life we are all living. I can not recommend her more highly. She is a true gem!

During our Stay-at-Home mandate with fitness studios and gyms closed, it's great Harmony Pilates is offering small virtual classes via Zoom. Not only can I start my mornings "moving" with my favorite instructors, but the class is interactive with personal guidance as when we're in-class. Yes, shoulders out of the ears!

Great people and amazing teacher...I recommend to everyone..."Even, if you are a beginner like me!"
