At Essence Pilates, our Pilates teaching is rooted in the traditions of Joseph Pilates but with an added emphasis on the individuality of each client. No one will be given a generic Pilates 'routine'. Each person's strengths and goals will be taken into consideration so that the instructor can truly aid all clients to perform each exercise properly and to reach individual goals.
Our personalized attention allows one to become in tune with their body, to progress more quickly, and to maximize time exercising. Pilates equipment classes are performed on a variety of Pilates apparatus including: Reformers, Towers, Cadillac, Ladder Barrel, and Chairs. Students will enjoy the endless variety of body sculpting exercises that can be performed on this specialized equipment.

I've been doing Pilates for about a year at Essence with Brittney. At first I received a gift package for 10 sessions and thought that was all I would do. I now go 3x a week. Pilates has helped me improve my overall fitness and reduce muscle pain. I also think my posture has improved. Brittney has worked tirelessly with me on my individual needs and is truly invested in my success. Overall, I highly recommend Essence as a studio where the standard of training their instructors is above the norm and where Marilee (owner and trainer) is focused on excellence in her people.

If you are looking for a good Pilates studio, good equipment, good instructors, go to Essence! I have been working with Katie Haberman for some time now, and she is terrific to work with. Besides being a senior Pilates instructor, she is also a licensed Physical Therapist, so her knowledge of the body is excellent. Katie is able to tailor your workout to your own specific needs, with ease. She also happens to be an extremely nice person!

I have been exercising at Essence Pilates for the last 3 years. The brightly lit studio is always clean and inviting. I look forward to my bi-weekly session with my instructor Mary. Mary is very knowledgeable and always prepared with a challenging or a therapeutic workout depending on my body's needs. Mary and all the employees at the studio, from the instructors to the front desk attendants, are always smiling and very friendly. In addition to offering private pilates sessions, they also have group classes. Essence Pilates has a great boutique of pilates clothing, essential oils,
