I've been going to Pilates by Simona for a few years, training with Tracie Matthews. The studio is lovely, well-equipped and bright. Tracie is wonderful, great at explaining new exercises, correcting my form and amazing at thinking about causes and solutions for various body aches and imbalances. I would heartily recommend!

Tracie is exactly the kind of Pilates teacher that I've been looking for, who offers a more holistic and somatic approach than "traditional Pilates" does, and is very focused on healing and pain management. I have had a number of surgeries (hip and knee replacement, and toe fusion surgery) as well as a fractured shoulder and Tracie has always been able to identify the area that needs work and why I might be compensating for injuries.
She has really helped me become aware of my body and movements and develop a mind body connection that I never had before. It never ceases to amaze me when she is able to pinpoint miniscule changes that I need to make, or how to explain to me to think about a movement that I am having trouble with.
I've been training with Tracie for over two years now and our sessions are always super informative, challenging in different but great ways, and full of learning experiences!

Wonderful pilates experience! I took my first reformer class with them, teachers are very kind and helpful, and I felt very strong at the end of class. Looking forward taking more classes in the studio!

As the owner of the studio, it's not easy for me to fit classes in my schedule. But when I can do it. Kesa's classes are ALWAYS exceptional. They consistently push the boundaries and I get my work done. It's amazing to have such talented trainers in my studio!

Sara C is the best!! I always was struggling with reformer Pilates training due to so many instructions, always confused, always lost. But Sara made me fall in love with the reformer! Her instructions are crystal clear, straightforward and to the point. I love her energy, what a gem. Always having so much fun and as a bonus I’m feeling stronger and more toned! Can’t wait to be back. Studio itself is super nice, bright and clean! Thank you Sara! ❤️

I love the studio. It has truly changed my life. I can’t thank Tiffany and Patricia before her enough for their guidance and help will my core strength, flexibility and posture. The experience is rigorous yet really comfortable. The machinery is terrific and up-to-date. I feel so fortunate to get to go there. For anyone that loves Pilates or is interested in learning more I highly recommend a visit to Pilates by Simone.

I started going to this Pilates studio a few months ago, shortly after having my baby, when I needed one-on-one support to help rebuild my core and bring my abs back together. As someone completely new to Pilates, I was amazed by how my incredible instructor (Jessica) guided me from the ground up. Her expertise, patience, and encouragement made all the difference. I truly cannot recommend this studio highly enough.

I’ve been going to this studio for years. All of the instructors are knowledgeable, dedicated and welcoming. The past year I started training with Jessica, in addition to Simona, and I’m enjoying immensely my sessions with Jessica!

Amazing body work! Have been taking clesses for years here and this place could not be better. Simona knows how to analyze your problems and fixes all them by giving you the right corrections and excercises.

After doing reformer Pilates in a group setting for a couple of years, I decided I wanted to try private lessons and see if some one-on-one instruction would improve my abilities. After taking classes with Patricia for about six months, I’m so happy with the progress I’ve made. Patricia is attentive, engaging, and informative. I’ve learned so much about my own body while working with her, and I always leave our sessions feeling accomplished and uplifted.
I have also taken a couple of classes with Simona, who is also fantastic.
The studio space is bright and inviting, with a warm and friendly spirit. Highly recommended!

I have been working with Simona at Pilates by Simona for the past 3+ years! I love every minute that I am practicing pilates with Simona. Simona has an in-depth knowledge of the anatomy of the body which helps her to cater each lesson to my personal needs. Her private classes are always varied, never repetitive and FUN! Simona has an incredible sense of humor and I laugh continuously while strengthening and building muscle! I look forward to my weekly lessons at Pilates by Simona. It's a highlight of my week!

Incredible Pilates studio! Very welcoming and supporting vibe and deep real knowledge from all the instructors. Everyone is great but if you can get into one of Simona’s classes (they fill up at least a week in advance so plan ahead) you’ll be hooked. The classes are small and hands on and the private sessions will really take you to the next level. The focus here is truly on technique and students of all ages and abilities are nourished by the practice.

Simona is a fabulous teacher! It’s like she has a hundred eyes—she will catch the smallest things even in a group class and will make adjustments as needed. She’s also fun, charming, and engaging and no two classes are the same. Highly recommend!

Yulia Femenko is a extraordinarily talented trainer. She assesses and listens carefully, modifies her approach when necessary, and explains creatively to insure her clients achieve maximal understanding and progress. Highly recommend her and this professionally run, thoughtfully equipped, and beautifully maintained studio.

I came to Simona after months of physical therapy for a pinched nerve. I was in need of strengthening and making postural changes. The space and the trainers are all welcoming and so knowledgeable. The classes and private sessions have helped me enormously. Simona is a gem and I couldn't recommend this studio more!!

I have been seeing Patricia for private pilates classes for over a year now, and she has changed by body and my life! Even through pregnancy, our sessions have been so helpful in staying balanced and strong. When I am having an off day or feeling weak she is able to adjust our routine accordingly and still make our time worthwhile. I have also occasionally taken classes with Yulia, Lenny, and Simona -- all wonderful, too! Love the space and equipment + the other clients are also so friendly and kind.

I started Pilates a few months ago due to a serious back condition. It was the best decision I ever made. My instructor is Tracie Matthews and through working with her I have learned so much about my body. She is just an awesome and knowlegable individual! Furthermore, the exercises I have learned have helped improved my body movement and back condition. I truly thank Tracie with all my heart and I hope that she continues helping many more individuals like myself in the future.

I've worked with Tracie Matthews for about 8 months now and she is absolutely incredible.
Tracie noticed some pronounced imbalances in strength and flexibility between my left and right sides. We've been working to build more even strength and flexibility which has helped my chronic back pain and stiffness immensely. Plus, I've gotten a lot fitter and stronger overall!
Tracy is knowledgable, kind, funny, observant, and creative. I adore working with her.
The staff and facilities at Simona Pilates are lovely.
As far as classes, they keep group sessions small so each student gets plenty of attention. I've personally taken several excellent classes with Lenny. the facilities are very clean and they have all the equipment you could need.
Definitely recommend!

I'm so thankful to have Simona's pilates studio in my neighborhood! I've been taking private sessions with Patricia for the last few weeks -- I was briefly nervous to start pilates again after a long absence, but the studio is warm and welcoming to all. Patricia has an intuitive ability to teach and guide. Every session I come to new revelations about my alignment patterns and physical habits, and I leave our sessions feeling like a new woman. The exercises are always the right amount of challenging, and I've found a lot of joy in seeing my improvements week to week. Can't recommend this place enough!

This was my first Pilates session, and I was very impressed with the nice facilities. Lenny was attentive and helpful and explained everything so well that I quickly felt more confident. I have scheduled additional sessions with him.

This studio has been a very warm and welcoming to me. So far I have only taken classes with Lenny and Simona; they are very different, but both amazing. They make classes joyous and manage to be attentive to each student even when it's a full class. During Simona's classes I have those aha moments; she can help you make the smallest of adjustments that will change everything. After Lenny's classes I'm almost falling down the stairs, my legs are so shaky; he makes you work hard, but he'll always offer modifications or props to ensure health and safety. Speaking of health and safety, I still wear my mask out in public and I was very pleasantly surprised to learn that some of the teachers here still wear masks as well. Thank you Pilates by Simona!

Aimee Plauche is an incredible pilates instructor, empath and human. I walk out of our sessions with a different body, and over time, my posture, agility and strength has improved. Simona's studio is a warm and friendly place, and everyone there is expert.

I love this studio. I started with private rehab sessions to address what had become chronic pain and discomfort. It helped tremendously! I moved into beginner classes on weekends which have continued to improve upon and solve some longstanding movement problems. Simona and Foo are great teachers! The classes are small so they are able to address people individually. The exercises/reformer is an amazing tool and the instructors are key! I am so grateful I discovered this studio.

This studio is fantastic, beautiful, inviting, and spacious. I have had other instructors over the years and Yulia is the best I have experienced because she listens and learns my particular needs before even preparing her bespoke lesson plan. She has incredible knowledge of anatomy but also great energy and that’s essential to anyone focused on wellness.

I have been working out with Simona for 7 years and I am ecstatic that she's now the owner of this studio. Simona is incredibly knowledgeable, really listens to her clients, and can endlessly customize. She was a huge support to me during the pandemic when I was pregnant (via zoom) and I am so glad that we are back in person in her studio. She is the BEST!

I have had the great fortune of working with Simona as my one-on-one Pilates instructor for about two years. I started training with her because of chronic sciatica, and over a period of a few months, my symptoms have disappeared. She is truly an amazing instructor, who works with her clients on their level of ability,, never pushing too far, but building up the skill level over time. She is patient, knowledgeable, and at the same time, a true professional.

Highly recommended!

Discovering EHPilates by Simona has been life changing. From the moment I walked in there I was treated with incredibly individualized attention. Simona knew exactly what my body needed and how to challenge it. Working on my overall posture and strengthening my muscles not only has helped me physically but mentally as well. Her and her trainers are patient, knowledgeable, and amazing and my body is extremely grateful.

This place has transformed my mind and body since having a baby. I’m grateful for the small group sizes, the wonderful instructors, their understanding of anatomy and alignment and their attention to detail in every class. I buy my passes and book classes online; this type of system holds me accountable so I’m actually committed to the classes. I genuinely love going and I’m so thankful I found this studio.

I have seen pilates teachers in multiple cities and continents since I discovered my love for pilates. Ellie is top notch, truly an inspiration and mentor for life. I have yet to find a teacher and trainer that is even close. I'll keep searching but I suspect I will be in NY to train with her every chance I have.
