If you are looking for traditional, classic Pilates instruction, skip the big box options and come see Rachel! I was introduced to Pilates many years ago but just recently started taking classes more seriously. Rachel will start you out privately to get to know your body and movements and then you can move into classes (no more than 2 other people). Rachel is so patient and attentive, that cannot be matched at the big box Pilates studios. If you've wanted to try Pilates, give Rachel a call! Your body will thank you! read more

I've been going to Pilates at Energy Within twice a week for over a year, and I love it! Rachel, the owner and instructor, is amazing. She's been teaching Pilates for over 20 years and has a tremendous amount of knowledge. Because of her vast knowledge, she is able to address any specific needs and physical limitations you have as an individual. She really cares that people learn how to do Pilates right. The correct form is very important to her. She keeps her classes small enabling her to give everyone individualized attention. She has several classes throughout the day so if you miss your scheduled class it's easy to make it up. Every class is fun, and I've met so many great people in her classes. I highly recommend Energy Within...I wouldn't go anywhere else!! read more

I've been to several other pilates studios over the past few years. I really love Rachel at Energy Within. I appreciate her attention to detail. She knows so much about how the body works and makes sure that everyone is doing the exercises properly and using the correct muscles. There have been so many times that my body has wanted to compensate and use the wrong muscles, but she is able to see that, correct me and get me to use muscles that really help me gain strength in all the right places. She keeps the classes small and even though there are 2-3 other people in the class, she gives very individualized attention to each person. I am constantly challenged in her class in both mind and body. I highly recommend Energy Within! read more

I wasn't exercising much and spent hours everyday sitting at a desk so I was very weak and out of shape when I started Pilates at Energy Within 3.5 years ago. It wasn't easy to get my body moving but Rachel was patient with me and helped me move from a gentle start on all the moves to increasingly advanced moves. My body has responded very well and I have much more strength, some great new muscles and much better posture. I am convinced that coming here was a super smart decision and I'm very glad I found this place and got underway with Pilates and Rachel. Highly recommended!! read more

Meet the Business Owner: Rachel R.

I have owned and operated Energy Within Pilates for over 25 years. I discovered Pilates at 35 and enhanced my quest to understand the body. A mother of three, I taught fitness classes and was a massage therapist. I was uncomfortable in my body, never sitting or standing still for any length of time without moving or stretching. I had broken several bones, sliced a couple tendons in my foot and ended up with a twist in my pelvis. Pilates totally changed my life. I have learned much about the body and movement through understanding how my own body works, heals, and stays healthy. Each person is unique, but the principles of movement remain the same. For every movement it's important to understand the fundamentals: which muscles stabilize and which mobilize the bones. I ensure that every client is taught to connect with their body and control their movements. I am an active and attentive teacher, observing and correcting everyone in my classes for proper, controlled movements.

Nicole and Keala are wonderful people, and I will greatly miss In Balance's community. I also love that a primary focus of their studio is geared toward supporting the community either through donation flows or making yoga accessible for those on tight budgets. They also handled their response to COVID-19 responsibility and ethically by quickly moving their classes to Zoom. I highly recommend this studio for anyone looking for a community that's focused on supporting your personal growth, giving back, and having fun!

She amazed me with her knowledge of the human anatomy and how everything works together. I always feel safe when attending our sessions and the other group classes. My body has not felt this good since my early 20's (40 now)! Chad has designed a great tennis workout for myself and friends using the TRX, Rip Stick and other tools. He has a keen eye for developing exercises that increase your mobility and strength that is needed in specific sports.

All of the trainers are excellent and I highly recommend any of the TRX, Kettlebell, or Barre classes. I can't wait to see how quickly my body bounces back after this pregnancy (my third) due to Iron and Grace. So happy I found this place!

Thankfully, I found Center of Gravity and I am now a strong believer in the restorative benefits of yoga.

My instructors Wendy Orrison, Karen Stanley, Jen Coluzzi and Susan Dixon are professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and welcoming. During this time of Covid-19 the studio has offered almost all of their classes on-line at a discounted price to assist their clients and foster community. There is no judgement at Center of Gravity, whether you are a novice or someone who has done yoga all of their life. The environment is warm, inclusive of everyone and is a place to experience joy and laughter.

The competitive pool includes a dive well with platforms and springboards which as a diver I was elated to see. There is also a recreational pool and water play area for kids. The whole facility is clean and well-maintained and the staff exceedingly helpful and nice. The local region is fortunate to have a swim and dive facility of this caliber.

I have attended more championship level swim meets at the Christiansburg Aquatic Center aka CAC…read morethan probably any other. So why such a tardy review? It's just been overlooked for seven years. Sometimes it seems like I live at a pool since I'm on the road around the country conducting swim meets as an official. Often my son competes at the same meets. The center is funded by the city of Christiansburg and Virginia Tech as the team trains and competes at CAC. The pool is roughly eight years old. The location is in town. Parking is limited which always creates issues with large meets. Off street parking is free and legal if no signs. There is an athlete drop off in front. It's not covered. Parking in the rear near the pool is for hospitality, coaches and officials. My most recent visit was my son attending a Breaststroke clinic with VT head coach Sergio Lopez last December. The deep end diving area was utilized for the small two day camp with 22 participants. The centers competition pool is a 50 meter Olympic size with platform diving. Pool temps have always been correct. Air temps are comfortable. Deck space is limited and is an issue with large meets. Air quality is fair. The spectator area is large and good from most seats. CAC has a nice digital scoreboard. However the location at the very end is not optimal. The facility is immaculately kept. The venue also has an Adventure pool with slide. This pool is used for warm up/cool down during competitions. Swim lessons are also conducted here. It's a nice bright area with windows top to bottom. I'm sure I will be back at some point. But CAC is not currently on my 2020 schedule.
