Cortney is an amazing Pilates instructor. I’ve practiced Pilates for over 20 years and I’ve never had an instructor who has been more focused on getting the best results for me and from me each session. I walk out after each session feeling taller and stronger. Cortney knows how to focus in on just the right stretch or position to make you feel amazing. She’s also a warm and caring woman and lots of fun to be around. I can’t say enough good things about Cortney and TONEpilates.

Cortney is the best fitness instructor I have ever worked with. She is knowledgable, warm, fun, accessible and knows to support and challenge. If you are looking to add pilates to your fitness program, you cannot go wrong with TONEpilates. This is the best thing I have done for myself. I never want to miss a session. I feel stronger and more confident. And we laugh a lot together as well.

Let me tell you she is the most patient and amazing teacher. I should’ve done this a long time ago and I have a severe disability issue that would scare most people away. She works with some great professionals at local hospitals here in Boston and she is professional, kind and just amazing. I feel great. I remember what I need to do for homework per se and I wish I could see her every day if I could, I would highly recommend her for anyone with any sort of issue she can help you get better

I reached out to Cortney back in July desperate to find myself after a year of caring for my mother and her subsequent death in June. From the time I walked into her studio until now I have gained strength, flexibility and confidence in my abilities! I suffer from a bulging disc in my back that leaves me all but incapacitated but with the core strength I have gained, I haven’t had any flares in months! The laughter, kindness and expertise Cortney brings to each in studio season and the on demand videos at home are amazing!! It feel more like we are just hanging out rather than working out!! Highly recommend!!

I cannot put into words how much I love Cortney and her pilates. I'm trying to come up with a way to describe Cortney's energy, and all I can think of is a ray of sunshine. She is such a good human being that when you are around her you feel lighter and happier. The sessions are filled with laughter, chit chat, and amazing pilates that will push you just enough to grow stronger each time. Cortney has changed the game for how I view my workouts, and I cannot believe I look forward to working out now. Cortney's at home videos are so unique and fun, it feels like she's right there in the living room with you and you'll never get bored. If you are lucky enough to get an in-person session with Cortney, then I sincerely hope you cherish it because she is such a special person to come in contact with. Cortney knows the body so well, and will make the necessary adjustments for you so that you are never straining yourself and you will always be enjoying the challenge of pilates. She will work on your flexibility, fluidity, muscle toning, and core strengthening all with a smile on her face and the most nurturing support you could ask for. You will never get bored since you never do the same exercise twice, and the hour with her will fly by!!!

Exercise has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Team sports, cardio, spin, weightlifting, yoga… it took 42 years for me to try Pilates and I have no idea why. I decided to reach out to Cortney after dealing with a neck/back/disc issue. Her on demand classes and one on ones have been amazing. She is a master of her craft and is so intuitive. She can see what needs work and what is tight and works her magic to make me feel like a completely better version of myself when I finish her class. I could go on and on about how amazing Cortney and her Pilates teachings are. I will forever thank her for introducing me to a fun, challenging way to better myself.

I recently lost a lot of weight and wanted to enhance my walking for exercise to include Pilates. I reached out to Cortney, who got me started with her OnDemand Mat Beginner classes. I’ve now been doing these weekly classes for over 2 months and have gotten so much out of them! Cortney is an amazing teacher. Her OnDemand classes are great! She is funny and engaging and really knows her work! Cortney does a wonderful job of challenging her students to keep going and try new things! She also makes sure to touch base with her students to see how they are doing and to ensure that the Pilate moves are working for them. I highly recommend!!!! Cortney is awesome!!!

I have been dealing with chronic lower back pain for 3 years now. After trying acupuncture and pt, I was told to try pilates to strengthen my core. I have only been working with Cortney for about 2 months, but I am already starting to feel a bit stronger, and a bit of a relief. I know this is where I need to be right now. Cortney is an amazing instructor. She is kind, caring and very attuned to the body. I look forward to my sessions in person with her as well as the on demand classes! She makes it fun! It is obvious she loves what she does. She exudes so much positive energy, that I always leave in a better mood than I arrived!

When I started training with Cortney I had chronic pain in my IT band, along with regular flare ups from tendinitis in my arm. I was also watching my elderly mother get weaker and less mobile every day. At 66 I felt it was high time I commit to real self care.
Cortney's passion for Pilates is contagious and I was hooked from the start. I trained with Cort one day a week - within a few months my chronic pain was gone! Now I do her OnDemand class 5 or 6 times a week. I love that she's naturally funny and makes me laugh, super important that it's fun as well as challenging.. I couldn't be happier working with her cuz I want what she has - a strong, flexible body and I know I'm on the right path..

When I met Cortney, my knee hurt badly and I hadn’t been able to run or work out at all in over four months. I have to say: she changed my life! She is such a great instructor; so patient, serious and funny at the same time! I will be forever grateful! And thanks to OnDemand, I am now able to practice Pilates every day… I feel like I’m getting my strength and energy back, one session at a time. Cortney inspires me daily to work hard, stretch hard, and have so much fun along the way…. 💕😊

I am a dancer who started seeing Cortney to help me with my hip and back issues. Even going through years and years of physical therapy, I feel better than I ever have since starting my one-on-one lessons with Cortney! She is amazing at catering to my individual needs and always has something new to try every time! I would definitely recommend Cortney to everyone, especially to dancers!

Working with Courtney has been absolutely phenomenal. After experiencing a dance relate injury, I was sent over to Tone Pilates for healing as well as future injury prevention, and there are seriously not enough words to describe just how much I loved it! Each lesson we get to try new things and explore different dimensions in regards to my physical ability. Even after leaving home for college, I have found myself back on the reformer, loving every single minute I am training! 10/10 would recommend!

Where do I begin!!!! From the minute I walked into Cortney’s studio I felt comfortable, relaxed, excited, and motivated! She is helping in my recovery from my 4 shoulder surgeries which is challenging, but the overall feeling I have when I leave is so uplifting!!
My last surgery was the removal of my 1st rib (rib resection). My diagnosis is Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. TOS is a group of disorders that occur when blood vessels or nerves in the space between your collarbone and your 1st rib (thoracic outlet) are compressed. This can cause pain in your shoulders and neck and numbness in your fingers. My doctor would not allow me to go to PT. With TOS it’s really about healing your nerves and releasing all the compression.
I have been in pain for so long and started to accept this was just a part of my life now.
November was 2 years since my rib resection and I have been in a lot of pain.
My NP from Mass General Hospital told me to look into Pilates.
I contacted Cortney and sent my doctors prescription with what they wanted me to work on. She called me and we discussed further.
I’m almost at my 10th visit, yes only 10 and OMG she has moved mountains for me (and you who know her she actually would really try to move a mountain for you). The work Cortney is doing, is amazing!! She’s teaching with me to open up my chest and shoulders that I have been protecting my upper body for 2 years now. She’s helping me open up my shoulder area to release all the compression, strengthening areas that have become weak, elongating my spine, and working my core. PEOPLE, when I tell you it’s working, it’s working!
To stand up, open up my chest and roll my shoulders back and feel the relief of my body not having to protect itself anymore...... she is bringing me back to bring ME again. Cortney is full of fresh air, laugher and most of all encouragement. I only wish I found her earlier! She works wonders and I am super excited to continue my journey with her right by my side!
I’ve never experienced or even thought of Pilates before. My healing has only begun and I look forward to my future with TONE Pilates 💕

I have been a client of Cortney‘s for over 15 years - I like to say that I was Cortney‘s first when she opened her studio! Over the years I have worked on the reformer and the mat. For 12 years I went to Cortney’s studio. Most recently, I reconnected with her after I moved to the Cape and Cortney offered Zoom classes because of the pandemic. I must say that is the best thing that I can attribute to COVID-19!

Over the years, I have had many physical challenges, some coming from just getting older and others from accidents. I believe that Cortney‘s real gift is here awareness of the body — my body – and what it needs to heal. I currently am taking a private Zoom class. She begins each class by asking how I feel and if I have any concerns. With that information she adjusts her instruction to give me the best pain-free work out. I don’t know how she does it, but she watches me on her laptop and can tell if my position is a little off or if I seem to be having any difficulty.

I believe that my doing as well as I have physically through the years is directly attributable to the knowledge and care that Cortney has shown me. I am fortunate to call her a friend. Thank you, Cortney…

If I could give Cortney 6+ stars I would!! I have now been with Cortney for about 2 years and I have to say that it has been one of the best things that i have done for myself in a long time. Several years ago, I made a New Year's resolution that I was going to focus on my physical health. I had chronic back pain from an injury 20 years earlier and as I got older it was getting to a point where it was affecting my day to day life. Little did I know that going to Cortney would positively change my life in so many ways!! 2 years in, my back pain is gone and my core strength is so strong. While I am sure there are other pilates instructors out there that are great, what makes Cortney so special is her absolute passion for what she is doing. She is constantly bringing new exercises to motivate me and push me and there are times I honestly believe she is more excited about my accomplishments than I am!! She brings such a great attitude and spirit to her work that brings me joy and makes me look forward to the next session. I will forever be grateful to her for helping me overcome my chronic back pain and now consider her a dear friend!

I cannot believe how much progress I have made under Cortney's expert guidance. I'm aware of, and using, muscles I've never accessed before. Training sessions are challenging, but with purpose. The entire process has been very interesting, as I can feel my body learning and becoming stronger. I am so glad that I have been able to train with the best!

I’ve been doing Pilates for many years and discovered Cortney just a few months ago. She is great to work with: very knowledgeable, fun, and quickly tailors exercises to your needs. She has a deep knowledge of Peak Pilates and has helped me to expand my repertoire, building on the knowledge I already had. Pilates is a life saver for me, and Cortney makes it all the more enjoyable!

I've been working with Cortney since June, and I look forward to every session. It has been extremely helpful in building a foundation of core strength that I had trouble accessing before coming to pilates. My back feels more stable, my baseline fitness level is improved so more movement options are available to me, and the principle of "all movement generated from the core" has carried over into the rest of my life. Cortney finds a great balance of motivation and fun during our sessions, and definitely tailors each workout as I get stronger one week at a time. Highly recommended!

Cortney is an amazing instructor. She tailors each class to everyone’s needs. My hips and hamstrings were extremely tight due to cycling and sitting for long periods at work and during my commute. Between the in-class instruction on the equipment and recommendations for at-home stretches, I have seen a dramatic improvement. I highly recommend taking classes with Cortney. Her sense of humor and encouragement make the classes enjoyable.

After taking one discovery class, I was hooked, and each week look forward to pilates class with Cortney as a time to focus on myself, gain strength and most importantly stretch! As someone with very tight muscles, pilates has increased my flexibility and allowed me to stretch my muscles further than I am capable without the assistance of resistance. Cortney is an incredibly talented instructor who challenges the class and provides personal attention when necessary. She also has a great energy and keeps things light and upbeat. I would highly recommend her and her classes to anyone!

Pilates is a life changer and Cortney really makes it fun and at the same time challenging. She is extremely knowledgeable and develops a personalized work out to help you reach your goals. For me it’s my posture. After 3 months of Pilates with Cortney, my posture has gotten so much better that I have regained that half inch that I lost from slouching over a computer these past few years. Her approach is very intentional and personalized so you finish the work out feeling stronger, more balanced and excited about your next session!

I have 3 kids so making time for anything is a challenge, but I look forward to class every week. It is my hour of zen! Cortney customizes each class based on how her students feel and what want to get out of it. She makes you feel like it is a personal session, even when in a class of 5. Cortney's support and encouragement make me challenge myself even more than I probably would. 6 months in and I not only feel stronger, but I leave each class with a sense of accomplishment.

Incredible, fun and I highly recommend.

Cortney really concentrates on you, your needs and the things you didn’t even know you needed!

Professional, friendly and an expert in her field.

I went from having no hope after I fractured my spine....I did numerous Physical Therapy, doctor appointments, cortisone shots, going to the gym with no improvement,.

After two weeks of Chiropractic and Pilates, My plantar fasciitis improved significantly, I could sleep, my core was getting stronger and I was able to function. It’s now been a few months and I improve and get stronger every week with Pilates.

I came to Tone Pilates about 3 months with the goal of building my core muscles. I had injured my back years before and found myself in chronic pain after I reinjured it with a sub par personal trainer. Cortney has been amazing. Her experience with rehabilitation and her motivational sessions has been instrumental in getting my entire body and mind in a more healthy state. I am happy to say my chronic back pain is gone and I continue to build a strong core. Great experience and would recommend Cortney to anyone.

Started working with Cortney on a recommendation of my physical therapist to aid in strengthening my hip and core. Her knowledge of the anatomy and varied ways to get my body to move and overcome years of bad habits has more than impressed me. She is fun, thoughtful , encouraging and invested in your wellbeing. Pilates is hard work but Cortney makes the hour fly by and I always feel a little bit stronger after each session. So glad I have the opportunity to be working with her.

I have been a client of Tone Pilates since its' beginning, and beyond.
Throughout the years the quality of my life has been enhanced because of Pilates itself, but more so because of the Instructor! I suffer (ed) with chronic back issues and was never able to stick with a traditional gym/fitness facility....I always ended up injuring myself, and then not being able to work out. Enter Cortney Murray...Cortney utilizes her physical therapy background to fully assess and evaluate each client, and then devise a personalized Pilates session for them, that targets, without sustaining injury, the core strength training that is the basis of Pilates.
She understands issues like spasm, trigger spots, strain and adjusts the workout for maximum benefit each session. This is no ordinary studio.
If you have ever thought about trying Pilates and were unsure if it would be good for you...IT WOULD...it is good for every body!
I now enjoy life without chronic, debilitating back pain...every now and then I do something stupid and I feel pain...again...Cortney is able to work around those days, and still give me my workout. And I ALWAYS walk out feeling better than when I walked it!!

I trained with Cortney after trying for years to get back my physical fitness. Her support and positivity is un-parallel and she is highly in tune with how far to push.
