I have been going to Connect since 2020. I have done online, in person classes, and private sessions. They are all terrific. Small pilates and related classes ensure personal attention and the instructors are knowledgeable and tuned in to each student's needs.

I went to Nancy at the beginning of the June in 2025. I had plans to train for a 50K at the end of September, but my training came to a pause when I was running on the treadmill one day and felt a very intense pain in my lower back/ hip area. The pain became increasingly bad, even after stepping off the treadmill, to the point where I could not even walk (or sleep). I was super disappointed, not only that I couldn’t run, but I also had a big backpacking trip coming up within the next week. After a trip to urgent care, I scheduled a last minute appointment with Nancy and she was able to get me in and evaluate what was going on. She determined that my hips were unaligned and was able to help me realign them and gave me exercises to complete each day to help. She also provided me with dry needling (hurt so good)! I went on my backpacking trip and was able to hike about 50 miles which felt incredible after literally not being able to walk a couple days prior. I went and got dry needling done after the trip as well. I let my hips recover for a few weeks and basically took the month of June off of running. I was finally back to running starting in July and completed my 50K (symptom free) at the end of September!! I am so thankful for the care Nancy provided me. I still remember being in our first appointment, crying, thinking I wouldn’t be able to run again that summer. She truly listened to me and took the time to explain everything she was doing and the reasoning behind it. I ultimately ended up running over 500 miles this summer which would not have been possible without the care I received. I am so grateful for her compassionate care and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for physical therapy! Thank you so much for everything, Nancy! If I lived in the Denver area, I would be going every week!!

I am a very active 66-year-old male and a beginner to Pilates. I came to Connect in hopes of strengthening my core to help deal with 2 bulging disks in my lower back. To be honest, I was nervous and intimidated about trying Pilates which I now know was foolish and wish I had started sooner. All the instructors are so knowledgeable about a working with my personal limitations of mobility, flexibility, and strength. In just several months of working with Sutton, Lydia, Trish, and Corrine my pain levels have lowered almost to nothing. I now realize everyone could benefit from Pilates. If I had started Pilates sooner in my life, maybe I would not have developed a bulging disk issue.

Another fantastic benefit of the Connect studio is that PT's work there as well. I went to Nancy for a chronic annoying knot in my upper middle back. Nancy used dry needling along with physical therapy and the issue has gone away.

I have also been working with Nancy and the Pilates instructors on my kyphotic posture that has developed over decades. I honestly thought there was nothing I could accomplish in correcting my posture at my age. Through their training and physical therapy my posture has noticeably improved and continues to improve. It has become an exciting journey for me, and I cannot thank the pieple at Connect enough for their knowledge and patience.

Casey and her class are great. The fascia release techniques I have learned from her have changed my back pain so much. I have much less pain and if I have a way to deal with them. The Pilates exercises and weight work are also very helpful. I know that this class would benefit almost anyone.

I have been working with center strength for years. It is my favorite Pilates studio in all of Denver. Really excellent instructors and I always feel great after each class. I regularly do Casey’s fascia release class on Wednesday mornings via virtual stream. She stretches bones and releases and lubricates fascia and my body always feels good! She is super knowledgeable about the role of fascia and how to Hydrate and release Which is so important in maintaining overall health. I stand up straight and feel great!

My chiropractor recommended I start Pilates for chronic back pain about 1.5 years ago, and I’m so thankful I found Connect! Since joining, my pain has improved so much, and I feel stronger, more flexible, and more toned than ever.

I’ve had wonderful experiences with every instructor, but I have to give a special shout-out to Sutton! If I could take her class every morning, I absolutely would. I always leave feeling not just physically amazing but also so positive and uplifted — she has such a great energy.

The community at Connect is another thing I truly love. It’s such a welcoming, supportive space, and I always look forward to catching up with everyone. Finding this studio has been such a game-changer for my health and overall happiness! Thanks Connect!

I suffered from chronic back pain for years and couldn’t find anything to relieve it until I started working with Nancy! Nancy is patient and extremely knowledge. She was able to figure out where my pain was stemming from, what I needed to work on, and what activities would lead me down the road to recovery. Now I’m able to do all the things I used to and I feel stronger. It is definitely worth it to work with Nancy if you want to feel healthy and pain free again!

Nancy Gonder is a PT whisperer. Look no further. I had been to several other PT facilities for over a year with little improvement. I have seen Nancy for 3 months and my chronic pain for my neck and shoulder from rotator cuff surgery is no longer. I like that Nancy is full hands on during my appointment. I can count my exercises at home. My appointments were always different, never the same old routine. Nancy tried all the weapons she had in her arsenal to help me and SHE DID! Patience and doing the exercises is the key.

Just completed physical therapy treatment over a couple months in 2025 for a rotator cuff issue at Connect Physical Therapy and Pilates. The folks at Connect were friendly and fun, and they made me feel welcome and comfortable.

As my physical therapist, Nancy was absolutely THE BEST!! Calm and patient, she could not have been easier to work with. In addition to her obvious knowledge base, Nancy was very observant and perceptive - she knew when I was experiencing a little pain almost before I did (my eyebrows furrowed, she noticed); in learning exercises, as both she and I were focused on me getting the exercise right, she would gently advise - "And don't forget to breathe." She noticed me holding my breath, as can be my habit at times.

I would highly recommend Nancy to anyone needing physical therapy, she is superb at what she does. I had a fantastic experience!

The entire staff at Connect is incredible, I work with them for both physical therapy and pilates needs and recommend them to everyone I know. I work with Nancy for my specific hyper-mobility needs and general maintenance, her attention to detail and easy communication makes each session feel incredibly safe and productive. I’ve made leaps and bounds in my physical health and physical strength. Could not recommend more! I’ve also worked closely with Carrie, Sutton, and Trisha for various Pilates and CoreAlign classes and highly recommend. 10/10 no notes!

Huge shoutout to Nancy Gonder! Thanks to her, I’m back to running and playing high-level frisbee without any leg pain. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, but also kind and funny, which made the whole rehab process way more enjoyable. On top of helping me recover, Nancy taught me how to keep my body working properly so I can stay healthy and keep doing what I love. I am incredibly grateful for everything she’s done.

This place is a godsend for anyone needing physical therapy support. I started going to Connect two years ago after I had my second baby for pelvic floor therapy support. I've continued to come back for support from injuries. The PTs are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, and the small atmosphere ensures you get personalized support. More importantly, the broad focus on whole body care has helped put me in a position where I can change daily habits for better outcomes. This is not the place for one-and-done appointments where your underlying problems never change. Connect will make sure you find the root causes of your issues and help you build toward a healthier happier self. Love this place!!!

I attended Carrie's Pilates and CoreAlign classes throughout my second pregnancy. With my kids being 11 years apart, I expected pregnancy in my 30s to be much harder on my body than in my 20s. I’m not exaggerating when I say my second pregnancy was virtually pain free and I had far easier recovery in the months that followed which I attribute to Carrie’s classes. Not only is she an incredible Pilates instructor, but she’s also a highly skilled physical therapist and a go-to resource for anything body- and pain-related. Thank you, Carrie, for sharing your talents and for curating an amazing space with high-quality teachers. I hope more mamas-to-be utilize your classes because the level of care, expertise, and attention were truly a game-changer for me!

Nancy Gonder is the physical therapist my daughter saw and I highly recommend her. Not only is she talented and educated in her field, but she is also friendly, caring and patient. The exercises were ones that can be done from home, any time and for as long as needed. Scheduling was easy and they were always starting and finishing on time. They have all the equipment, tools and gadgets to help heal and/or stay strong. Hope to join the Pilates classes in the future!

I've been a Connect client for several years now after finding Pilates post knee surgery. I keep going back because of how wonderful all the staff and instructors are. As my body ages I find that I seek instructors who watch alignment and correct compensations in my body, and challenge me. In addition to a variety of Pilates classes and virtual classes, Core align (aka friendly torture) is offered. Connect also has a unique offering in that they have physical therapists on site who instruct several classes and offer private PT Pilates. If you are looking for a small studio, with a well rounded offering of classes and great instructors, look no further.

CLASS SIZE MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

Beyond loving the Connect community and quality of the teachers, it is the individual attention you get through each class that is incredibly important. With a max of 5 students in a class, an instructor will watch each student performing every move and will que individual adjustments to ensure proper form. That level of attention is a game changer.

I first tried Pilates Reformer in a large class of about 12 people. I enjoyed it. However, when I tried a class at Connect, I quickly saw the benefits of spending a couple of extra dollars per class.
If you are a new/er to Pilates, at Connect will get the attention needed to ensure proper form; the instructor will adjust as needed on an individual basis; and thus, your risk of injury is greatly diminished. If you are more experienced, your instructors will get to know your capabilities. This means they can challenge you. Whether you are experienced or a novice, you will benefit from instructors getting to know your body because they can identify when something seems off – even when you don’t realize it yourself. Yes, this happened to me.

Adding Reformer classes at Connect to my yoga practice strengthened my wonky hip. It also made me more aware of my body. Where yoga helps me get out of my head and get into flow, Pilates gets me out of my monkey mind and puts me more in tune with individual muscle groups in a way that has helped my form in yoga as well.

Love Connect!

Game changer for my back issues! I chose Connect because I had a sense that my back issues could be resolved by strengthening my core. The problem was that most exercise made my back even more painful. Not here and not with this incredibly skilled practitioners! In fact, I am on the road to and strength after a handful of private sessions. If you have a bulging disc like me and have spent years trying chiropractors and personal coaches, this is your safe and effective path to movement without pain and with renewed strength. I cannot say enough good things about these ladies, especially the PT expertise from Carrie. If I lived in Golden, I’d be here every day. In fact, I hope to do some virtual classes to keep my strength and body posture I gained with these amazing ladies.

I had an AMAZING experience at connect! I had needling done and it was fantastic. I have had back pain in between my shoulder blades for at least a year. Right after my session I was incredibly sore, I was sure that the next day I would be even more sore. But I woke up without any soreness and felt like a new person. I could tell a difference in my posture as well as a relief in pain! The young lady working the front desk was very sweet and personable. I think her name was Mackenzie. I also got to meet the owner who was very nice. I would highly recommend to anyone needing help with their chronic pain!

I first tried Pilates 25 years ago and hated it. Never tried it again. Until an injury brought me to Connect last year. Pilates has seriously changed my body and thus, changed my life. I’m a dancer and Pilates gives me the core strength I need to safely move as I wish on the dance floor. Carrie in particular is a very knowledgeable and kind instructor. I really enjoy being a part of the Connect community!

I've been involved in Pilates for almost 20 years, and Carrie and Kat are by far the BEST instructors I've interacted with. Their philosophy is not "one size fits all." Rather, they assess the group for what is needed and continuously adjust as needed, throughout each and every class. I've had mobility issues for 12 years, and this is the first time I've been able to realize a marked improvement. Highly, highly recommend Connect to anyone looking for either a Pilates workout or PT needs.

This is an amazing place and I recommend 100%. I am a retired guy who joined his wife for a session and became a zealot. We usually work on strength, balance, and flexibility. But this is also the best PT I’ve ever had. I had a badly sore back that was cured in one session. I’ve had a chronic hip problem for years and they’ve put it right. Try them out!

I love doing pilates at Connect! I always vaguely knew that pilates existed but never knew what it was all about, so I took a few private lessons and then got into group classes and now I'm hooked! Pilates has really taught me to focus on using the correct muscles, movements, and form when exercising, which has helped me improve my performance in the other sports and activities I do. The instructors are awesome and make class challenging but fun. If you're curious or on the fence about trying pilates Connect is a great place to start!

I am new to Pilates, and Connect has been the perfect place to start! I did the package with three privates and three classes, and every single instructor I've worked with has been so amazing. The classes are fun and challenging, and I've already learned so much about my body! The classes are small, so the instructors are really able to pay attention and help out when needed. I've been taking Laura's Beg/Int class on Tuesday evenings, and Sarah's Beg/Int class on Thursdays. Highly, highly recommend! If you are curious about pilates at all, you should definitely check this place out!

Carrie, the owner of Connect PT, led me through a stretching class today, and she has also treated me for several different chronic injuries over many years. She is patient, genuinely caring, positive, and thoughtful. What I love best is her very specific and accurate descriptions of what your body should be doing and feeling so that you can do every stretch, exercise, or move correctly to strengthen and heal, and to gain flexibility. I have taken many different exercise classes before, and no one does this better or cares more about helping you feel that you are mastering the move yourself. This isn't just a job for Carrie - it is a passion. She really wants to help empower each person who walks through the door or joins a virtual class.

Carrie is a gifted physical therapist, class developer, and trainer. I have attended virtual classes for over a year, including mat pilates and weight/band classes. Weight class (my favorite) is challenging, but always with options for modifications/accommodations, and interesting, never ever the same sequence or combination of exercises twice! Carrie offers uncommonly helpful and often personalized tips for ensuring you do the exercises with proper form. I don't live nearby so am happy that virtual classes will continue.

I started going to Carrie after I had a car accident and got a pretty bad case of tennis elbow and a stiff neck. She was fabulous. She thoroughly evaluated me and my condition and gave me some PT exercises to do at home. My body took a while to heal, but I can now say that I'm 100% stronger and out playing sports again.

I also attended several of Carrie's online classes during Covid. I absolutely LOVE how Carrie teaches. While the exercises don't seem intense, they are...yet they are safe and gentle to your body.  That is important to me since my body is not as agile as it used to be.

I would highly recommend Carrie to any of my friends and clients for any type of PT or strengthening work. In fact...I bought my Mom, who is 77 years old, a 10 pack of classes for her to use even though she lives in SC. My Mom can strengthen herself and improve her balance in the comforts of her own home. :)
