Nancy's seminar was touching to me. She explained it simply, but accurately, clearly. Her energy hasn't decreased for a long time. She was amazing.

NancyJean was very gracious and patient with me. She took the time needed to give commentary and minor correction throughout the test when necessary. Despite my nervousness in the beginning she made me feel at ease and seemed to appreciate the time and effort that I have put in to prepare for this first test. She gave constructive criticism for my own body demonstration as well as the test body I worked with. I appreciated her relaxed approach and the way she pointed out things to pay attention to as I evolve as an instructor.

So glad I came back after the Covid nightmare!!!
The studio is so spacious and the instructor, Pacho, was, as before, so knowledgeable, fun and altogether wonderful!

I really donβt appreciate being touched without being asked first. This was a very high touch class. The instruction was confusing, and they physically put me and the other participants into positions instead of just explaining better.
Someone had their hands on me probably 95% of the workout. Corrections included touching my pelvic and hip area without asking, poking my sides without asking, and fully putting their arms around me while giving direction very close to my face. I felt incredibly uncomfortable.
At times, I wasnβt even getting a workout because the instructor was moving my legs for me instead of allowing me to engage and do it myself.
It really crossed a line when, after correcting my back, the instructor absentmindedly played with my pony tail.
There was a woman there who was very kind and helpful. She was high touch, but her instructions were more clear and she allowed me to do the workout myself.
However, I will not be going back. I am writing a review as a warning to others who may want to check this studio out that it is very high touch without consent.

Lifespan Pilates offers great classes to help you stay in shape and improve your posture. Classes become progressively more challenging as students become more proficient in holding positions properly. We all take pride in what we accomplish at Lifespan Pilates.

Pilates mat exercises remind you to do it regularly and every day as much as possible. It is also a way to better understand Cynthia's cueing. I look forward to the next class as soon as possible.

Fue espectacular recibir una clase privada con Cynthia. Me preocupaba que el inglΓ©s fuera un impedimento para entender bien, pero fue maravilloso. Entender las correcciones y aplicar los tips que me fue dando. Una gran experiencia π El estudio muy autΓ©ntico , limpio y con mucha buena energΓa. Igual que toda la gente que te cruzas allΓ. ππ½π

Loved the class with Cynthia this morning! I was coming into her Monday night class at the Ailey Studio earlier in the year, but the timing became difficult. I hope to do that again, but this was just as great! Thanks Cynthia, hope to see you again soon!

I love Tasha's stretch/mobility/flexibility class ! She is very knowledgable and knows how to guide you to reach your goals! It's been about a year and a half now and i've been seeing consistent results! Maintaining flexibility is so important in one's lifespan and this is my go to class for it all!

Tasha's explanations, hands-on and verbal corrections and suggestions encouraged me to work farther than I thought I could, while avoiding injury. She is a wonderful, welcoming, and knowledgeable instructor who clearly loves teaching. I got a great deal out of this session that I can incorporate into my workouts. She's a delight to work with.

Lifespan Pilates is an amazing classical Pilates studio. Cynthia is an incredible teacher, great hands-on spotting, addresses each persons strengths and weaknesses, overall wonderful experience for any student or teacher of classical Pilates. Very inspiring to be around apprentice teachers who are learning while you train. Beautiful large studio space too filled with Gratz apparatus! Highly recommended.
