Not only do they include great strength exercises before class, Sensei Harris tends to each kids needs, and pairs them up to other kids equally, and also challenges their inner will to help increase their self-motivation and self-image. Weve been to other JJ academies locally and out of state and hands down this is the best one we've been to so far. highly recommend.

Well others have said it and maybe I should have updated my review long ago. I did love this gym…read morebut a few months in they basically took $300 from me. I had paid for $500 worth of personal training for my older son and he did use $200 of that but it was so tough scheduling that he lost interest. The kids classes got way too big. So we left...and he would not reimburse my $300, then continued charging for 3mths membership as it was "policy". Something was definitely off and I was too sick from chemo at that point to keep fighting for my money. Recently the owner unalived himself at the gym when the swat team came to retrieve him for child molestation charges...we know the families and it's horrible. I imagine this wasn't the first time for him according to the other reports on here that were deleted. My heart goes out to the victims in this tragedy, all the kiddos that attended classes and the ones he molested, just terrible. You would have to be quite a sick individual to believe the way he left was the only option, zero thought about others and that seemed to be his pattern.

I have been doing Pilates for 15 years and I am very particular about the training background and…read moreknowledge of my instructor. My first year living in Sarasota, I tried out three different Pilates studios. Each Studio taught a different Pilates Method. I was feeling frustrated and disappointed with the quality of instruction, class set up and the varying degrees of experience of the clients that were in the same class i.e., beginners, intermediate and advanced in the same class. Then I found the Dynamic Fitness Pilates Studio. This is my FAVORITE PILATES STUDIO in Sarasota. The instructors are trained in Classical Pilates, well versed in their choreography. The staff is very friendly and focused. The other clients make you feel at ease from the moment you join the group. The instructors are especially skilled at modifying exercises to accommodate injuries or limitations. I've had private and small group classes with Kathy, and Vicki, both instructors are amazing!

I can see that other students share the same sentiments. He wants to push us so we can be better but at the same time never force us to do anything that we're not comfortable with.
