RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Janet is a knowledgeable instructor

    “Janet has single handedly built my body back one breath at a time. She’s a knowledgeable instructor who both listens to me and sees my body in action.

    I’ve come a long way ~ my posture has improved dramatically and I actually feel stronger. Moreover I have the strength to keep up with the activities of my little guy. I’ve also realized through working with Janet that it’s so critical to take some me-time. I am worthy.”

  • Every session is different and challenging

    "It's unusual for me to find an exercise I like and stick with it, but Pilates Mamas has made it very easy for me to do so.

    2020 had wrecked havoc on my body, but these pilates sessions have made me feel stronger and more connected to my body. Every session is different and challenging. Janet is great in adjusting movements to how my body is feeling that day and aches/pains."

  • Janet is so creative and personable

    “I cannot speak more highly of Pilates Mamas! I've taken many pilates classes over the years and their classes have been among the best. I love that they do many of the classic mat work while also incorporating new, fun and challenging moves. Janet is so creative and personable and you instantly feel like a friend!”

    “The classes were small so I got a lot of attention when I really needed help getting my core strength back.

    Would definitely recommend to anyone who recently had a baby and looking to get back in shape.”

  • Strengthened my core

    “Janet and our weekly pilates class have been amazing!

    She is super patient, encouraging, and enthusiastic. Though I consider myself still a beginner, I have definitely strengthened my core and improved my fitness overall.”

  • Instructions are clear and stays focused

    “As a mother herself, Janet understands well the process of postpartum healing. That it takes time and no two bodies are the same. Frankly, I was reluctant to put stock in Pilates because most of the instructors I’d encountered described themselves as classically trained, insisting on a right way and strict order of performing Pilates. Janet isn’t committed to the orthodoxy of classical Pilates sequencing. She’s more interested in achieving the same results but by effectively modifying positions and using props to set a stable foundation in the body. This is Janet’s magic: to find the right, appropriate way in. She doesn’t adhere to a rote universal routine.

    Her instructions are clear and once the session begins, she stays ever focused, noticing every deviation and correction. She’s got an eagle eye for precision and an economy of words.

    She sees postural misalignments and imbalances front to back and side to side. From there, Janet analyzes how to relieve discomfort, correct the alignment, and build strength. Throughout the years, I’ve noticed that her feedback is accurate and compliments that of physicians, physical therapists, and other movement specialists.”
