What People Are Saying
Personalized Pilates Sessions: “I feel truly inspired by the instructors’ commitment to our well-being and their deep understanding of the body-in-movement. Every instructor I worked with - be it in a full class or a private - made it possible for me to improve in ways I had not anticipated.”
— Katya, Professor
One-on-one Posture + Pilates Sessions: “I am so fortunate that my physical therapist referred me to Carla at Posture Studio. Pilates has improved my strength and flexibility, plus the staff and environment are top notch. My only regret is that I didn’t start years ago.”
— Diane B, Retired Educator
Physical Therapy: I sought out Tara because of her work with the US Ski Team. Tara’s ability to design a plan, set goals and help her clients implement both with her and at home made it possible for all of us to get back to doing the sports and activities we loved. Our son had major brain surgery and with the help of Tara was able to run a 5k less than 3 months afterwards.
— Sarah E.
Advanced Classes: “These classes are so good. It makes me feel great afterwards and it shows me how to pay attention to both sides of my body and how to identify which part of my body needs more strength and/or flexibility. I can see the results every week.”
— Berto, Professional Musician
Group Classes: “My practice at Posture has helped connect my brain to my body in a totally new way. I’m building a new level of awareness that I haven’t found through any other modality, including years of individualized physical therapy.”
— Ann Y, Nurse
Individual Pilates + Classes: “Finding Posture Studio has changed my life.
Carla and all of the instructors have a deep understanding of movement, and an amazing eye for spotting weaknesses and developing strength. Their passion is genuine and their enthusiasm contagious. Through Pilates, all of my exercise practices have improved, as I now understand my body’s inclinations to ‘cheat’ by using strong muscles to save the weaker muscles from doing the work, and I also understand how to better support my body muscularly to prevent injury. It is not an exaggeration to say that finding Posture Studio has changed my life.”
