I am now back in town visiting friends for the holidays and I made it a priority to schedule in time again on the Power Plate with Pilates. I have not found a substitute near my new residence and my body is really missing these workouts. It wasn't until I stopped going (after 4 years of regularity) did I realize how toned and muscular these sessions truly kept me. I may have to move back...I miss them so much!

I moved to Connecticut about 6 months ago and after two years of getting my Masters and a whole lot of sitting around, I knew I had to do something! I like nearby The Pilates Centre, read some reviews, and saw that they offered a free intro class. I had never done Pilates before (used to do Yoga quite a bit), but really wanted to try something new. Even though I felt intimidated by what I saw others doing and the machines in the room, I felt welcomed in and supported. After the trial session, I signed up for a 10 pack and haven't looked back. I am nearing session #22 with the owner, Jen, and have already seen changes in my body. I am sold on Pilates and will be remaining a loyal customer of The Pilates Centre. I always feel confident that Jen really knows what she is doing and is supportive of whatever stage I am in with my fitness. She has been incredibly motivational with getting my fitness back on track. I haven't tried any of the classes yet, but once I feel more confident I could see myself mixing class sessions in with the personal sessions. I highly recommend coming in for a trial session - you've got nothing to lose whether you are a beginner or an expert Pilates practitioner!

Spoke with other nearby businesses (some CP, some different studios) and they said this is a known issue with this owner. They oversell subscriptions and underhire teachers / classes to maximize their profits. Surprising that this type of business practice is legal.
