Going to Reach + Root was an absolute game-changer after a recent back injury!

Angela made time to see me and talk through all of the facets of what I was experiencing - I was blown away by the depth of her knowledge not only of human anatomy & physiology, but also her ability to predict which types of motion would end up causing uncomfortable pain vs. which would help me stretch and begin to heal in the right ways. I really appreciated her patience as I started to try different movements (some of which I can say with 100% confidence I've never tried before), and her guidance along the way!

Angela was also very helpful in writing out various types of exercises and stretches that I could practice at home to help engage my body in the ways that'd help heal as opposed to over-strain.

A few weeks after the appointment, my pain is managed much better and I'm definitely well on the way to feeling back to normal! I'd absolutely recommend Angela to anyone looking to improve their mobility and build the right foundations for it!

I love going to my sessions with Angela! Her years of experience as a professional dancer and a Pilates and Gyrotoinics instructor and enthusiast are invaluable to those of us fortunate to be her students. My strength, energy and flexibility are greater than I ever expected. She brings passion and creativity to every session.

Angela and her classes are a gem! My joint and hypermobility issues are addressed while I get the workout and care my body needs. It’s a pleasure to go there every week. Love the free online gyrokinesis that’s provided Sunday if you have a weekly appointment

As someone who has struggled with chronic back pain and pelvic pain issues for years, I can honestly say that Reach + Root has changed my life. Angela is so intentional, observant, and intuitive. I used to have back pain every day, I couldn't even sit in a chair for longer than 5 minutes without being in pain. Now, I'm lifting weights at the gym, biking, and living an active lifestyle with little to no pain. I am so grateful for such a life changing experience.

I've now been going to Angela/Reach+Root for a year and I LOVE IT!! I go about twice a week and it's made such a difference. She's so nice and truly an expert. I love how she customizes everything to my needs and goals. It's such a fun workout and the time flies by. I highly recommend her!

Angela is intuitive, creative and has easily been able to modify exercises to accommodate my body's needs. I have more fluid movement and range of motion after working with her. I appreciate her warmth and positive upbeat approach.

I’ve taken Angela’s video classes, and she’s such an intuitive instructor that she was correcting my form even though it was a recording! Very talented teacher.

I cannot say enough good things about Angela. I have taken Pilates before, but have never had an experience like this. Angela has such deep knowledge - of Pilates, Gyrotonic, and the human body. Her cueing and coaching abilities are outstanding and help me improve week after week. I feel like each session is tailored to my specific needs on that particular day. Truly, I look forward to every session.

Angela is a wonderful teacher for pilates and the couple sessions I have attended made me feel much more mobile than beforehand. She's very intuitive and sometimes verbalizes what you're thinking because she knows how the body moves and what you should be feeling as you move through the exercises

I have been participating in Angela’s Sunday virtual group classes for over two years now. It’s a great way to invigorate my body and senses and keep me moving. I also have enjoyed my 1:1 in person session in the studio. Angela has a gentle and supportive way of motivating me to exert myself in a safe manner. Thank you Angela for supporting my health and well-being!

Angela is phenomenal. Her expertise in movement (both pilates and gyrokinesis) has helped me through various sports injuries, a pesky sore back, and general tightness all while building strength and stamina. Her approach is gentle, while still challenging. I leave her studio feeling refreshed and even a bit taller. :) Highly recommend Reach + Root, especially if you are new to pilates and would like some one-on-one instruction.

Angela has been my 1:1 instructor for over 1 year. She is a wonderful teacher who has helped me gain strength and flexibility. We've also worked on an injured area and my pain is effectively gone in my everyday life.

Things I appreciate about Angela that may helps others: (1) I have NEVER felt judged based on ability, strength, or body type (2) She is extremely knowledgeable and is focused on continuous client improvement and safety (3) She is great at providing feedback in sessions and suggestions for things to try at home (4) She's able to match sessions to your energy level and needs (5) It's easy to schedule 1:1 sessions - she works with me and what I have going on (6) She is professional, courteous, and is incredibly invested in her business - you see it reflected in the way she treats her clients

I highly recommend her as an instructor!

In working with Angela for over 5 years her knowledge,creativity and love for Pilates and movement has benefitted my mental and physical health in so many ways. She has helped me solve and correct a number of physical imbalances because of her experiences in teaching many different people and this has been truly empowering and appreciated in helping to keep myself fit and safe!
Angela has encouraged and supported my journey over the years to becoming a Pilates Instructor and I see that my time with her has helped me grow as an instructor.
Today I still continue to learn from Angela in our sessions in a supported yet challenging direction.
You would be so very lucky to connect with her !!

Angela is one of the most intuitive and creative trainers that I've head the pleasure to work with in over 15 years of taking Pilates. Her knowledge and gentle way of cueing will help you connect more deeply with the movement, whether it's Pilates, GYROTONIC, or GYROKENESIS. She's a gem, and the perfect instructor for a "newbee" or an experienced mover. Five stars all the way!
