Pilates is a type of physical and mental conditioning that was first introduced to the United States in 1926. Since then, Pilates has grown so much in popularity that what was once only known by dancers, actors, sports figures, and the rich and famous is now a household word. J.H. Pilates believed that good health required balanced fitness of body and mind.

I own a yoga studio down the street from here and am always looking for new movement practices. Gyrotonics has been the perfect addition to my movement diet- bringing stability, symmetry and strength to areas of my body that were really needing some more careful attention. It's also been adding so much more detail to my yoga practice as I have a better understanding of my movement tendencies now. I highly recommend this beautiful and professional studio and I love working with Kay. I think Gyrotonics is especially useful for people looking to work with their scoliosis, pelvic instability after

The studio is lovely and inviting, with beautiful light. I am new to these disciplines, and purchased the 3 private sessions for $180. I choose 1 Gyrotonic and 2 Pilates classes. I cannot fault the instructors, as I have no point of reference. I found the classes to be confusing, complicated and was sadly bored. Perhaps this is not the place for a beginner.

I discovered Northshore Kinestics on an extended trip to the midwest. Amazing studio, amazing teachers. I had Paula for Pilates and Kay for Gyrotonics. They were both skilled, patient, and knowledgable. Hour-long classes always seemed to go by in half the time. I only wish I could bring this whole studio back to the West Coast!

If you are looking for a beautiful, peaceful place to have a great workout, with experts in all areas, this is the place for you. All the instructors are fantastic and all make you feel welcome regardless of your fitness level. Zumba, Pilates, Gyrotonic, Barre, Yoga and more in a supportive and gorgeous environment. Top of the line equipment. The owner Kay truly knows what she is doing and is very inspired and committed to help you grow your potential.

I am a very active mid-sixties-year-old male, who is finding that my body does not always take kindly to the level of activity and stress to which I am inclined to subject it. After years of badgering from my wife, who is a devoted client of Chicago Northshore Kinetics, I finally signed up for several individual classes.
It almost always aggravates me to be compelled to admit that my spouse is much smarter than I, but in this instance, as in far to many others, it turns out to be the truth. For over a year now, I have been routinely taking individual lessons at Chicago Northshore Kinetics. I find

My best kept secret.
I cant believe how lucky I am to find this great studio. I am taking pilates reformer during my lunch with one is the best trainers. Jeffrey would teach when I am the only student. I feel so honored to have a private lessons when I paid for group classes. I dont know how long it will last, because I am sure studio soon will become one of the most popular Evanston studio.
I also took yoga classes there, Wow!! Great teachers, great atmosphere, keep it up!!!

Time for a new review on CNSK! They have expanded the studio and Kay is not only the owner but an amazing instructor. My first experience with CNSK started with a 4 week Bootcamp class (cardio, weights, core, etc). I've taken Bootcamp classes at gyms before and they do not compare. It was 4 times a week and each class felt new and exciting and left you wanting more. She will work you hard but make the class work for all fitness levels without ever making anyone feel like they were holding the class back. I feel stronger and more confident with my form -she takes the time to teach you individually

This is a great place. The pilates is great, but it's cool that they are really focused on gyrotonic as well. I didn't realize it at first, but that's pretty hard to find. Alissa, the owner, is one of 50 or 60 master trainers in the world so she knows what she's doing. She also has hired some great people. Jill is an excellent trainer!
Also, while it may seem expensive at 55 or 60 dollars for a private session (depending on whether or not you buy a class card), this place is actually a bargain! At some studios it is 80 dollars a session (mind you the instructors elsewhere
