Star Pilates instructors have over 600 hours of training under the tutelage of Joseph Pilates protege Romana Kryzanowska. We are proud to only use equipment built by Gratz the original manufacturer of Pilates apparatus and the industry's source for authentic equipment. Amy began to fall in love with Pilates while at Goucher College in Baltimore, MD.
At Goucher, she was awarded a Pilates Certification scholarship to enroll in the Romana's Pilates Certification program in New York City in the Summer of 2003. In this program, she endured 650+ hours of training and five exams to receive her certification. Amy returned to Goucher to teach Pilates and eventually graduated with honors with a Bachelor of Arts in Dance in 2004.

Amy & Megan have both made my sessions about what I needed. They think about how to help you feel better and grow stronger, then match their expertise with individual client needs, making each session personally valuable. Star Pilates is a wonderful studio. I was a nervous 1st time student when I started and now I am a believer 😍

I love Star Pilates! I have been going for a while now and have worked with both Amy and Megan. They are both amazing! My 55-minute sessions fly by, and they work my entire body. They are awesome workouts for both my body and my mind, and I wouldn't give them up for anything. I highly recommend Star Pilates!

I love this place. I've been going now for years, and have trained with Amy through recovery from injuries, surgery and (now) a concussion! She has always been able to adapt our training to accommodate any needs I have (apparently many) and the private surroundings emphasize the one on one, personalized nature of the work we do. I am stronger, leaner and feel more in control of my body through Pilates, and look forward to our sessions every week. I have learned so much about the way my body works, including how to move to prevent aggravating existing conditions even outside of Pilates. There

I have been going to Star Pilates for about one year. I formerly had private pilates lessons in NYC Manhattan. I find the instruction comparable to my former instructor. My present instructor Debbie is a gem. I receive top notch attention from the time I arrive until I leave. The space is wonderful. I am standing taller and walking better with the personal lessons received. I look forward to my weekly sessions. I recommend the instruction highly.

I was looking for a new exercise regimen and wanted something that was close to where I live, and more importantly something that I would not get bored with right away and want to give up. When I received a Groupon deal from Star Pilates, I thought I would give it a try. Amy is a fantastic instructor who breaks everything down for a beginner like me, but is able to keeps everything intense enough to where you are getting a fantastic workout. I had never done Pilates before so having a one-on-one instruction was very important to me. The studio is beautiful, very well maintained, and always

Pilates has been growing in popularity for at least fifteen years, yet many don't know much about it. It is similar to some forms of yoga, with less emphasis on poses and more on precise, deceptively easy-looking movements that engage muscles originating from one's core. "Core" includes quite a few muscles, and it is remarkable how much more fluency in the language of one's own body can be acquired from this practice.
I have taken Pilates on and off for about ten years. Most of that has been in the studio setting which you will find at Star Pilates. Unlike a mat class

I have been going to Star pilates since it opened and must say that I couldnt be happier at this studio. I have transformed my body through pilates- I am down two sizes in my clothes. Amazing! The workout is never dull and Amy tries to mix things up so a long time client like me doesnt get bored. I must say that Pilates has changed my life and Amy and Star Pilates have given me a whole new outlook on working out. Life changing and well worth the money!!
