After years of not moving as much as I used to due family and work obligations, a back strain and fracture of my foot/ankle, Pilate's and Fitness Training has gotten me back on track. My back, knees and weight are doing what they should be doing...improving! Actually have to say I look forward to my sessions!

Did my first classic Pilates class at Valleybrook. The instructor Christin Lukondi was patient and masterful. Her coaching cues are gentle , stern
( in a positive way) and very informative.
This studio is a hidden gem , that I selfishly want to remain hidden. I will be back to try the rebounding and Barre classes

Prior to starting here almost a year ago, I had never taken group fitness classes - I was always way too intimidated. However, I was intrigued by the class line up & finally got up the courage to give it a try. I started with a Barre/Pilates class - I was shocked at how hard (in a good way) a low impact workout could be & left feeling strong, energized & super sweaty. Then I added the Rebounding Classes - OMG these are so much fun - seriously a complete stress reliever because you are focusing so hard on not falling off (it's completely safe, I go all the time & have never fallen off nor seen anyone

Using Pilates has really helped me to overcome some balance and coordination deficiencies due to a neurological medical condition. The Pilates Body instructors work on a specific plan of action for me each week and the progress I have made has been remarkable! The studio is very accommodating and flexible with classes and lessons, and their certified instructors are top notch (and, the studio is beautiful)!!
