Pilates Studio Ashland

TESTIMONIALS

"This really is as good as it gets! I'm on my second set of sessions with Belkis and could not be more pleased. In less than two months I have definition in my body, balance is so much better and I have learned more in the past two months than the past year doing Pilates! She has me do a complete workout as per Joseph Pilate's techniques, pushing me in a very positive, correct way and no two sessions are the same, each customized to how my body and brain are working at that moment. Just perfection! Thank you B!! " Claudette .


Belkis works with you one on one and tailors the class to your ability and needs, constantly correcting your alignment so that you do not injure yourself and you train the right muscle group. After my shoulder injury and subsequent frozen shoulder, I've tried all sorts of exercise but they all seemed to aggravate my injury and I had nearly given up on working out. That's when I met Belkis. And during the entire time that I've trained with her, I have never left feeling over strained, and I've been able to gain strength despite the injury. There are a couple of key things I've noticed from working with her. First, sessions with her have a similar effect to a good massage. You know the kind where you feel rejuvenated with blood flowing throughout your body and your body is able to move more fluidly? It's great when you have a chronic injury like I do. Second, I've noticed a distinct change in my body (esp my waistline), even though I haven't changed my diet and I don't have the time (or make the time?) to exercise more like I should. She has an amazing eye for proper alignment, is a great teacher, and keeps me laughing during class. And since she teaches from her home, it's way more affordable than private lessons at other studios. Pilates is a great gift and investment in yourself."  Mika


I wrote a review of Pilates Studio Ashland several years ago. But, since I have returned to Pilatesafter having a very serious fall last year which resulted in a broken left hip followed by a hip replacement, I feel I need to do an update. " Beklis has been exceptionally supportive of my return and helping me resume my practice of Pilates. Since I broke my left hip it’s a bit wonky and very unstable. She goes way beyond what I would expect of a Pilates instructor. She even climbs onto the top of the equipment to stabilize my leg. I’m amazed by how much strength and stability I’ve recovered since returning to her studio. I noticed during my session today that although she is although she is still stabilizing my leg, my leg is recovering and it’s not requiring the same lever of support it once did. She has been essentially tailoring my Pilates workout to my limitations and this is really helping me regain use of my left leg. I am really thankful to have Pilates Studio Ashland available.!" Dixie
