Such a welcoming environment and a great traditional Pilates workout. I stopped by for a class while on vacation in Carlsbad and enjoyed the atmosphere of this studio.

Natalie is an inspiring, careful and knowledgeable Pilates instructor. Her studio is quiet and immaculate. I began lessons a few months ago suffering from an arthritic knee. My work with her has improved my comfort with walking and daily activity tremendously. Natalie has also shown me techniques to continue my training at home. I'd give her more than 5 stars if I could.

Natalie is an amazing instructor. I’ve been to several other Pilate studios but none of the instructors customize your workout like Natalie. She is especially great if you have any injuries or issues as she focuses on your form being correct to prevent worsening or creating injuries. I would highly recommend EHF Pilates for anyone looking to improve their strength, posture, core, flexibility and balance in a fun and encouraging atmosphere.

I made an appointment with Natalie because I had been liviing with severe back pain for over a year. My daughter recommended pilates and I knew Natalie from the Carlsblad Chamber of Commerce. It was one of the best things I had ever done! In one session, she diagnosed what I was doing wrong and demostrated what I needed to do to correct the problem. And she gave me a set of exercises to solve the problem permanently. It was a miracle that I was able to walk pain free!

I recommend Natalie to anyone that is suffering from a similar physical problem. She is amazingly perceptive, very knowledgeable, and a wonderful person to work with.

I have been working with Natalie for over 20 years after trying to “fix” back pain and other muscle imbalances with other practitioners. No one has been as effective, patient and knowledgeable, whether it is keeping in “shape” or strengthening weak muscles, she is the best.

Natalie is the best Pilates instructor I have met.
She is very knowledgeable about anatomy. She diagnosed my postural problem during the first visit and tailored exercises that strengthen my weak points. Every time I finish my sessions, I feel strong and also refreshing. I am doing semi private lessons with my husband. He is also very satisfied with correcting his body postures and balance.

Natalie is amazing - the best Pilates Instructor that I have come across. She is incredibly perceptive and picks up the tiniest deviation from good form. I've had a private session and a semi private session and both have been challenging and instructive.
Unfortunately, I am only here on vacation. I live in the UK, but if I lived in Carlsbad, I would be at EHF several times a week. Will be back next year, or sooner, for more sessions. Thank you Natalie!

I have been to several Pilates instructors since suffering incapacitating lower back pain over a year ago. Pilates has worked really well for me and I am almost back to normal. Natalie is undoubtedly one of the best instructors I have come across in my Pilates journey understand my needs and analysing the parts of my body that need strengthening/stretching/straightening etc. and then showing me how to work on these areas. She is dedicated and enthusiastic about the benefits of Pilates. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Natalie is absolutely amazing and the results I've seen have been great. Not only has my core strengthened and waist thinned up but It's also improved my day to day functionality. Due to previous back injury I had trouble sleeping due to discomfort but now I have no pain in my back as it feels fully supported and strengthened. I highly recommend EHF Pilates for anyone and Natalie is the absolute best trainer!

EHF Pilates is the best! Natalie has a wide range of medical knowledge and knew immediately what my body needed and could tolerate. I have had much relief from my scoliosis, back pain and asthma. The new studio is amazing.

5 years ago I was searching for a replacement for my Pilates studio. I climbed the stairs (prior site) & asked Natalie if i could watch for a few minutes. I knew I had found my new San Diego Pilates home. Natalie is professional, knowledgeable, welcoming and fun. Her students are just like her! I take classes almost every day when I can. It’s a terrific program.

I'm currently completing the Pilates Comprehensive Teacher Training Program here at EHF Pilates and I could not be more pleased with my experience! I had researched several different program in the San Diego area, but was drawn to EHF because of Natalie's welcoming presence and depth of experience, as well as the feeling I got when I visited the studio. The space is light and bright, filled with every apparatus and prop you could imagine, and you can tell that there is really a sense of community amongst her clients.
I have learned so much from Natalie's expertise and from the Pilates Sports Center curriculum. The course is clear, thorough and well-organized, including both traditional and contemporary approaches. You get ample instruction in anatomy, modifying for postural deviances and injuries, and key areas to focus on studying if you choose to sit for the PMA exam. There is an emphasis on tailoring the work to each individual client, which you gain direct experience in from the opportunities provided to practice teaching private clients, classes and other students. I have gained confidence in my ability to teach, and more insight into where I see myself in the industry because of Natalie's mentorship, intuitive knowledge and impressive business sense. I highly recommend this program!!

EHF Pilates Teacher Training Program is outstanding! I live in Reno, NV, and researched many programs in Reno and San Diego. After visiting EHF Pilates studio and talking to Natalie Walker, the owner and master trainer, I decided to relocate to San Diego temporarily to complete the Program. This program is very comprehensive, thorough, of high quality, and meets all the eligibility requirements to sit for the P.M.A. certification exam. In addition, Natalie is very available to students, offers mentorship and guidance and the course is very well designed.

Natalie’s 16 years of experience in Pilates shows; she is passionate about her profession and has a wealth of knowledge to share with students. She is a dedicated teacher who trains her students to acquire the skills, knowledge and competency to teach and assist clients to reach their goals. Natalie teaches many of the group classes and lots of private sessions which allowed me to observe and learn both in observation and hands-on. I consider myself very lucky to have been trained by Natalie, and I highly recommend this program!!!

EHF offers a very thorough and comprehensive Teacher Training Program. I did a lot of research before I chose EHF. Sure, there are places that offer quick courses but I felt I'd be cheating myself of the education and practice that I would need to excel as in instructor, as well as being able to obtain credible certification and go on to work with clients from all walks of life and many with injuries. Aside from learning about the history of Pilates, proper form and alignment, there's a good amount of anatomy that is covered allowing you to learn about the intricacies and complexities of our bodies. Natalie Walker is a very passionate, hands on and dedicated Master Teacher, an expert in her field ensuring that her students leave equipped with necessary knowledge and tools to become successful instructors. Whether you chose EHF as your next Pilates studio to heal your body or get a great workout, or you chose EHF to complete your Teacher training program, you will be happy you did.

Natalie Walker is an AMAZING Pilates instructor, coach and all around wellness educator. I have been coming to EHF Pilates for about 3+ years now. Natalie has worked with me to increase my flexibility, get back out on the bike and get strong with Pilates and bike riding. In the past several months, I have lost a significant amount of weight and Natalie has been one of my strongest supporters. She has offered nutrition advice in a way that is easy to understand and incorporate into my life. She is not judgmental and is easy to relate to. I highly recommend EHF Pilates.

I can't recommend EHF Pilates enough. Natalie is an expert and can work with any level of skill. In addition to private sessions she offers group classes in the mornings and evening. We all have different issues and limitations but she's a pro and we all get a great workout while having a good time. The classes are super affordable. I love this place!!!!

I have been going ti EHF Pliates for about a year and a half and I LOVE IT!! Natalie is the owner and instructor and knows so much about Pilates and your body. She is so helpful and runs a very professional business. It is the most welcoming and bright studio. I actually look forward to exercise which is something I haven't said in years.
The newest instructor Kelly is a wonderful addition, She is cheerful but also a tough instructor! She knows your body and ensures that you are doing everything correctly.
She takes the time to explain what we are trying to accomplish with each exercise.
Thank you Natalie and Kelly. your work is very much appreciated!! Kathy

Natalie was my first introduction to Pilates and she shows an incredible, skillful knowledge of human anatomy as well as a deep understanding of how Pilates works. Due to her background and knowledge she has created a beautiful setting with a highly trained, knowledgeable group of teachers, all providing a warm, welcome, healthy environment in which to enjoy exercise.

My body has become so much stronger and my health has improved immensely. This has been one of the best investments in my health in decades.

I'm in my 7th year at this wonderful Pilates studio and can't imagine myself anywhere else!

I'd like to add my appreciation here, of another one of the teachers at EHF. Kelly is a bright, upbeat and knowledgeable Pilates instructor, who offer encouragement as well as motivation in every class. I'm actually attending more classes now that she is part of the teaching team because I'm enjoying them more than ever. (I can't believe I'm saying this, as I've never liked any form of exercise this much).

I absolutely love EHF Pilates! I have been going to EHF for about 3 months, and want to let people know how wonderful it is. The class sizes are small, and the instructors are amazing! There are 3 instructors and they all have their own style, but they sure know Pilates. Kelly is a pure joy, with her enthusiasm and warm demeanor, and always a smile on her face. Natalie is the owner, and so knowledgeable about the body, and makes you feel welcome from the first visit. Courtney is the third instructor, and you can't go wrong with any of them. The benefit of just 3 months, is a loss of 16lbs., and 2 dress sizes. You should try it once, and you will be hooked, I guarantee it!

I love this place! The instructors are amazing and really know what they're doing. Each one has her own unique style of teaching, so it truly feels like you're getting a different workout everytime you're in a class. I've tried many types of fitness programs, and Pilates is the one practice I can committ too. I've been taking the Pilates Express classes for about 6 months now and love them! They're a little shorter than a standard Pilates class (40 minutes) and I feel like I get just as great of a workout. The class is constantly moving. The classes are really convenient; I can get in and out of class all within my 1 hour lunch break - it's perfect! I'm so thankful to have found such a great Pilates studio to train at.

Natalie has been my first pilates instructor and will surely be one of the best! I was in North County for 2 months completing an internship for physical therapy when I took an interest in pilates and found her studio. I completed my private sessions with Natalie, all of which were offered later in the evening to fit my schedule. I was concerned that I wasn't going to be able to find a studio that worked with my long internship hours, but Natalie and her staff offered private sessions and classes as late as 7:30pm. Natalie's passion, drive, and enthusiasm for pilates has inspired me to improve my personal health and fitness and more importantly, has facilitated my professional development in creating personalized rehabilitation and treatment sessions for others' to do the same. From a physical therapy student's perspective, I can say with 100% confidence that Natalie knows her stuff and will continue to develop personally and professionally as a pilates instructor. It is obvious that she is always seeking out ways to improve her work, and she is doing it for the right reasons. I feel like I am in the best shape of my life and I owe a lot of that to Natalie, her staff and her studio. You will see physical and emotional results within two weeks if you are self-motivated to improve your overall health and well-being. Thanks EHF pilates, you will be missed!!

I started Pilates about 5 years ago as I wanted to get toned, stronger and lose some weight. If I would have known now how much Pilates helps you with every day issues such as stress relief, to sleeping better and of course the physical effects on your body I would have started many years earlier. When I started I went to Natalie and have been there ever since. EHF Pilates has wonderful instructors as wells as they change up the classes and exercises to make if fun and interesting. EHF Pilates is always one step ahead by updating equipment and new class content. I strongly encourage you to try out EHF Pilates as it is a premier studio with exceptional trainers!!!
