Have taken privates with Jane, a few MAT classes and a Tower class, and what I really enjoy is the attentive and hands on approach. The classes are classical but there is a sculpt option with modifications if preferred. The space is calm and not judgmental. I also feel like I am also learning more about Pilates here.

Jane was kind enough to host a private class for my friends and I during my bachelorette weekend. Everyone had such a great time! Jane was so kind and patient, and taught a great class that was perfect for a group with varying Pilates experience. It was a great way to kick off the weekend. The studio is absolutely gorgeous as well. Highly recommend. Thanks again Jane for a wonderful experience!!
