Natasha is a great trainer. She's knowledgeable in her training, and leaves you feeling "STRONG"…read more She even offered to help me with a meal plan for such a reasonable price. Being a mommy of three, it's hard to find a way to workout, let alone be able to afford to workout. But Natasha, being a mommy herself, helped make that possible. I was able to train, and still have my kids there to play with other kids, and even workout themselves if they wanted to. Even though California lost her to Maryland, she's still able to train from long distance and keep others motivated and inspired. Thank you Natasha! #Cannon I definitely would recommend The House of X training!!!!

i've really enjoyed classes at the yoga barn. i started with a slow flow class as i've not done…read moreyoga for many years (at least 15 at this point) and i'm coming back with several debilitating health conditions. it was a little *too slow* for my personal taste, but i've found their vinyasa flow class to be perfect for my medical limitations. the instructor Nicole is incredible. she does a really incredible job with her flows and she's very aligned with teaching for all levels in one breath. i am coming up on the end of my 5 class pack and will definitely be purchasing another class pack. it's (obviously) a barn sized building, and the room itself isn't too large - i'd say medium large. there is a bathroom i haven't used but it does require stairs so just FYI for accessibility. they did have a service dog in our class today, and for those who need that it's very welcomed!

I took a Sproing class here with my ClassPass a couple of months ago. Sproing is TOUGH but lots of…read morefun! You're basically running on a soft-surfaced treadmill and doing lots of different exercises using your own body weight, free weights, bands, etc. You will be harnessed in so you don't go running off of the front of the machine. You get a heart rate monitor when you arrive. This way you can monitor your heart rate during the work out. Your heart rate and your name will appear on a screen in the studio, along with everyone else in the class. The instructor is really like a coach. She will tell you and others to push harder if your heart rate isn't in a certain zone, but she'll also let you know you should back off if your heart rate gets too high. PACE YOURSELF! Or you may end up light-headed and nauseated like me! Lots of explosive movements. This is definitely a high intensity interval training workout. The greatest difficulty for me is following the routine, like in any fitness class. I'm just not very coordinated. The work out is only 30-45 minutes, which is also nice. There's plenty of parking, but it's kind of awkward. The building where this is located is kind of nondescript and old, but you will find it pretty easily.

I have been a regular student at CoreWorks for about five years, and I love it! This is not one of…read morethose "bargain bin" clubs stacked with reformers and a ridiculous client-instructor ratio. At Coreworks, the classes have no more than 8-10 reformers, so the instructor can take the time to help each student with the routines. No two workouts are the same, and classes are never dull. If you are thinking of giving Pilates a try, visit CoreWorks and check Groupon, as there are often new member/class packages.

I always wanted to try pilates on the reformer. The gym I go to is too pricy so when I saw an offer…read moreon groupon for three sessions I purchased it. Per the instructions on groupon, I emailed Fran so that I could create a log in online but I didn't hear back from her so I called the office. Once my account was created, I was able to sign up for classes. I was informed before I took any classes I would need to take the Intro to Equipment class. Fran was the instructor. She was patient and helpful as it was my first time and I needed specialized attention. For my second session, I took Reformer I & II with Doreen. Foe my last session I took Tower with a substitute for Doreen. All the instructors were patient, helpful, and friendly. They ask if anyone had injuries and they walk around and if your technique is wrong they adjust and correct you which I greatly appreciated. The classes were challenging to me since I am not good at following directions. Also, if you don't remember instructions well, I recommend taking Intro to Equipment multiple times. I had to look around to see how to do things as I am a visual learner, not an audio learner. The facility is tucked away in the corner and is not visible if you are in the parking lot. Fortunately I saw someone wearing athletic clothes and followed them. The facility is clean and bright. There are two individual restrooms. There is a main room with cubbies. The reformer room also had cubbies. The reformer room was slightly warm even with ceiling fans so I dressed lighter the second and third session. I enjoyed my experience, but could have benefitted from more intro classes. The classes were much different than my normal cardio and strength training classes at my gym. The pace was slower and it was a great way to relieve stress. I highly recommend Core Fitness for Pilates.
