Not only is she a pleasure to be with (fun and encouraging, no FEEL THE BURN, WEAKLING!! attitude here) but she is amazingly knowledgeable, talented, and intuitive. Small things like washing the dishes used to make my back hurt for days, but she has taught me how to use my body properly and I no longer have any pain. Plus, I look a lot better in a sundress :) Go to Movement for fun and fulfilling exercise, you won't regret it.

When it comes to fitness, I'm game for just about anything. Just about. To preface, I'm disciplined…read morein the beat-the-heck-out-of-your-body arts, you know, pushups and situps and lifting and punching, alongside a little stretching here and there, for balance. As a general rule, I like to sweat. I'm of the midwestern German/Jewish/British bloodline so my veins are pretty heated, thus when I get moving, I'm a faucet, it's disgusting, honestly. If you're anywhere near my proximity when I'm dripping, stay away. I'm like a garden hose under thunderous pressure, hurling my droplets upon unsuspecting passers by. I should also preface this with the admission that I enjoyed an introduction to Pilates from a friend/associate/trainer who offered to show me the ropes, springs and stands of the art free of charge. I didn't take a class and although the personal training session wasn't leveraged on an agreement to review the venue, I can't claim this was a genuine appointment with the business. Like many of you, I was genuinely curious about Pilates. Years of television commercials offered virtually no clue into the underworld of this fascinating practice, and once I was there, in a facility equipped with the very best, I totally got it. Pilates is the yin in my aging, overburdened yang. I'm about to turn 40, about to hit that Over the Hill mark, and that means I hurt, mysteriously, in places that never hurt before. As we age, we realize that stretching and activating those muscle groups that we ignored for 40 years suddenly matters. Momentum Studio is an excessively clean, dynamic facility decked out with machines that are built to bend you sideways, upwards and out. The contraptions in this place, man, they're genius inventions of wood and coil, pulley and spoke, the kind of thing your nutty neighbor developed in his garage, and they work wonders. One hour of work in here will realign your spine and reset your clock to Zen. Next visit, I'm investigating Barre. Can't wait.

(Brian, Aline, Liz, Kelly, & Lourdes - every one awesome) They offer (& recommend) a new customer package of four private lessons. They will allow you to split that with a friend though, making it even MORE affordable. After that they have class packages and also a drop-in rate. Open studio available for those whose training is already more advanced. I've been looking for a studio or some place to go that is more supportive than where I've been taking physical therapy (which I believe is actually making my joint injury worse as they have a specific goal in mind and push, push, push to get to it in the prescribed amount of appointments), and I've found it! I have no fear that the work I do here will be comprehensive, challenging, but appropriate for me and safe. I'm looking forward to starting Pilates equipment and Barre classes!!

Cancellation policy problem when the studio didn't hold up their end of the bargain…read more The assistant manager told me one thing on the phone and then the manager negated that agreement. If they didn't receive my cancellation policy form, why did they wait two weeks to let me know and then charge me an extra month. It feels like they just want my money and care nothing about the people that take classes there. So disappointing because the instructors are absolutely fabulous !!!

Lourdes is the most patient, professional, and helpful instructor. Before my first private session,…read morewe discussed the history of my disability, so that she could understand what my goals are as well as my limits. She even worked with my treating physician to secure medical insurance coverage for 30 private sessions! Lourdes goes above and beyond to care for her clients, many of whom she considers to be friends. She has clients that have been with her for 8 and 10 years, and after only 4 months, I understand their loyalty. I knew PT wasn't making me stronger, but I didn't know what I could reasonably expect from Pilates. Lourdes has slowly and steadily helped me build strength and flexibility in a safe, supervised way that doesn't add to my injury. She checks in frequently to make sure I'm okay after a session that was particularly challenging, and she makes me feel so empowered (yep, just like the name of her business) when I can execute a particular exercise or do something that demonstrates progress. I truly appreciate how professional she is - her dedication to continuous learning and trainings that allow her to keep up with new techniques and best practices. Lourdes always wants what is best for her clients. On top of being exceptionally good at what she does, she happens to be one of the loveliest humans. When my 70-year-old mother visited ABQ, Lourdes invited her to join a session and showed such care to make her feel comfortable while getting a good workout. I've never met anyone like Lourdes, and after years of PT, I feel like Pilates is actually improving my quality of life - physically and mentally. I look forward to each session with Lourdes. Her studio is a peaceful place to exercise, and her prices are more than fair. We are lucky to have her in this community, and I'm lucky to have discovered a lifelong hobby that builds me up and allows me to spend time with someone as kind-hearted as Lourdes.

My only gripe with this particular location is that the morning classes can feel like a geriatric high school - very cliquish - and if you aren't part of the social club, you are overlooked. I've had women try to stake claim over certain reformers and act territorial if you happen to take "their" reformer.
