I can't tell you how happy I am to have my knee back. Hannah is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and strong--she is a huge inspiration in many ways. I can honestly say I've never felt healthier since taking her class.

Hannah is awesome. She's super knowledgable about anatomy, alignment, and the pitfalls of using the…read morewrong muscles for the job - with attention to all the details. I had an injury, and bad form, and through training sessions she has helped me ramp up back to being pain-free and using the correct muscles and positioning for everything. She gives you super do-able workouts to do on your own at home or on the road to keep it going. And she does nutritional coaching support. She is a most lovely, upbeat, kind and motivating gal. I highly recommend her if you want to get fit, stronger, healthier, and stop hurting.

I just wrote the following to Alex but thought I would share it on Yelp too. (And for a little…read morebackground I was in bed for a year, then progressing to a wheelchair, Walker etc. for years due to foot pain.) Wow! I can't believe the difference in my feet after our first session. I just tried going on tiptoes and staying there for a while and the difference is huge. Not only was I able to hold it much longer, the pain was lessened and my feet feel so much more flexible. Thank you so much!" Gratefully, Maia Alpern, El Cerrito, GlutenFreeFairyGodmother.com

Working with Alex has been life changing, she is an exceptional Pilates teacher. Alex is kind,…read morecompassionate and extremely knowledgeable. Her focus is always on making sure that her students are moving their bodies correctly. Alex keeps a close eye on each and every movement pattern performed and makes adjustments when needed. As a very active person, I am used to asking a lot of my body. But, as I age, I am realizing that I need to incorporate more stretching into my life to avoid injuries while carrying out my daily activities. My sessions with Alex have made so many positive changes in how I use my body - not only am I stronger, but I am learning to use my body correctly to maintain my functionary for years to come. With increased body awareness and proper movement patterns, I am living in less pain every day. I don't have words of thanks for this gift that Alex has given me. Whether you are looking to increase your strength, improve your flexibility, decrease your pain or just have some fun with a pretty amazing person, book a session with Alex!

I can't say enough about my sessions with Mary. I was NOT a believer in pilates and because my…read moresister and mother were seeing/feeling results and I had chronic back pain I decided to give it a try. She is so dedicated to my overall improvement. She takes notes on my progress/areas I need to improve and creates individualized plans for me based on my goals. The best endorsement I can give her is that after two months of weekly sessions I am no longer in constant chronic low back pain. Thank you !

Not only does Mary focus on the body but she also incorporates mind and balance health. I have a history of back issues, so Mary's expertise and mindfulness of these challenges is so appreciated. She pushes me based on what she knows my body can handle and builds on each session to continue strength and flexibility. She will also quickly shift gears if my body is feeling compromised that day. I have worked with her consistently for months and my posture, strength and body feel fantastic. I can't say enough positive things about Pilates Mary!

As a health practitioner and an athlete, its always challenging to create a trusted network of…read morelike-minded professionals. Luckily I got it right with Alissa. She has been seeing my patients for as long as I have known her (almost 3 years) and I have heard nothing but praises. I tell my patients its not JUST pilates you need, its guidance, and that is what Alissa is great at, guiding your body in the right direction to reach optimum balance and sustained overall health. Pilates is the preferred method of rehab and core strengthening, and Alissa is the right person to get that job done. I have had the pleasure of experiencing her work first hand, and seeing amazing results with my patients, which gives me great confidence knowing she is capable and knowledgeable to handle the most delicate cases. These are unique characteristics not found in my instructors. I highly recommend this dedicated professional not only because she is good at what she does, but also because she has a wide knowledge base and most importantly... a caring heart.

Well, 2 years since my first review and I can't sing Alissa praises enough! Unfortunately I have…read morerecently moved and I miss Alissa's workouts SO MUCH! I went to her weekly before I was pregnant, throughout pregnancy and also postpartum. She is very knowledgable about the postpartum body. I have had some problems since delivery (ab separation and some minor low back pain and uneven gait) and Alissa was helping these problems. Since I moved I tried a new instructor and it made everything worse!! So now I'm in physical therapy, doing really well, and guess what exercises I'm doing with my PT? The same ones that Alissa would run me through! I so wish I could continue to see Alissa for the amazing whole body workout and seriously, the stress would just melt away! I miss you Alissa xoxoxo!

Miriam helped me understand that my whole body, from foot to ankle to glute to hip and across my back needed conscious awareness and focused work to make a difference. I walk differently now and feel much better overall. I first met her as a group pilates teacher and both her group classes and our individual sessions have been very helpful. She is a really great teacher and a super nice person. Highly recommended.

When I left TPS, I missed the trainers more than anything and it has been a long road to finding workout routines and gyms that could come close... Recently, the stars aligned and I was *finally* able to make it out to Jen's 'new' (to me) spot in Alameda. It's been over a year since I've lifted weights/done strength training with a barbell and I am still recuperating from a serious ankle injury; but Jen totally kicked my butt in the perfect amount (enough to get my heart rate up, to remind me of how much I miss and love strength training, enough to seriously challenge me yet not so much to discourage me or make me feel like a total loser) she's dam brilliant with her programming, she's beyond patient and meets you where you are while still pushing you just the right amount. She's great at keeping you on point with your form and workout and she genuinely cares about you and your goals. If you're looking for a solid trainer or a place to go for kickass small group session check her out- I guarantee you'll be hooked!
