10/10 would recommend!! Such a cute space, clean, bright and inviting. The instructor Michelle was so nice and welcoming. The class was amazing, there are 4 stations so it’s small which was great felt like a private class. Anytime I come back to Charleston I will 1000% taking a classes here!

What a gem! The studio is clean, bright, and motivating. The classes are small so the instructor can give you just the right amount of attention/correction/praise. Maura is exceptional with her overwhelming passion and perfect balance of form, fun, and results. My chronically tight hips have improved greatly within a few weeks. It is a weekly must!

Michelle is an excellent pilates instructor! Every time I leave her class I find that I’ve worked out a new part of my body that I didn’t know I could! Her playlists go hand-in-hand with what you are doing on the reformer. She is just an absolute gem! 💎

Perfect for beginners all the way to intermediate pilates. I have been taking reformer classes with Michelle and I cannot get enough! Michelle is a thoughtful, fun, and challenging instructor. She is so good at pushing you when you need it and coaching you on when you need to rest. I leave every class feeling stronger and more confident than the last.

Wow, I had no idea what I missing without Momentum. I started 6 weeks ago and am absolutely blown away by what I've learned from these classes. Wish I started years ago. Michelle is insanely talented at what she does -- I've felt 100% comfortable and, at the same time, challenged the entire time. Not to mention, the studio space is gorgeous! Buying a subscription asap! Thank you so much, MM!

I'd give this Pilates studio -5 stars if I could!

I was visiting from out of town and was excited to try this Pilates studio, I was truly looking forward to it.

I purchased a $45 single class, but their classes fill up extremely quickly so I gave my spot to a friend. I cancelled with ample time on MindBody and my MindBody account confirms this.

Then, I came to realize that the studio had charged my Credit Card the full $45. This was extremely frustrating, because my friend told me that the class wasn't even full and I received no notification that I could join the class with her.

When I escalated this to the owners, they said I could not receive a refund even though I was visiting from out of town.

AVOID this studio at all costs and their shady billing practices!

I was in town for a wedding, and since I’m a novice when it comes to Pilates and the reformer, Michelle seemed like the best person to help me!

Her studio was so easy to find and WOW is the space warm and inviting. I immediately felt like I was at home with an old friend. I knew I had a great workout - but I was also amazed at the depth of Michelle’s knowledge, her attention to detail, her easy going nature and how she was able guide me through a challenging workout that was also enjoyable!

I highly recommend Michelle and her studio to both locals and out of town visitors! I left wishing that Michelle and her studio were much closer to my own home! Until next time, Charleston!

Such a gem of a studio in the heart of downtown Charleston - this space is charming and full of love. Don’t let that fool you though, Michelle’s classes are beyond challenging for your body and incredibly thoughtful in delivery. I leave shaking and also feeling so strong and satisfied.

I’ve been to other Pilates studios with reformers and no other instructor has taken the time to look at my body and notice my left hip is sitting lower than my right AND help me learn how to make micro adjustments to even out my movements and efforts.

Michelle knows her stuff and is so welcoming and inviting to all. HIGHLY recommend.

Michelle’s classes are just amazing! She is incredibly knowledgeable & always creates a challenging class. Also, I worked with her through my entire pregnancy. She helped me strengthen, while also stretch and stable my body as it changed. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Favorite day of the week!
I have taken soo many different types of workout classes, I even teach some, and this workout gives me so much energy. This class is an incredible way to challenge your body in ways you didn't realize you could. You don't walk out of the class dripping sweat but you instantly feel EVERYTHING!

So excited for Michelle & Momentum Movement Studios - this is the perfect place to make pilates accessible to you, your needs & schedule. Highly recommend jumping in on a trio class!

Michelle’s knowledge of Pilates and her experience in leading intimate group classes really shines through at Momentum! I’d never used a reformer before and not only loved it but felt confident with Michelle’s guidance. The class was so fun I didn’t even realize what a deep workout it turned out to be! Highly recommend.

A lovely experience. Michelle made me feel incredibly comfortable in her space. She was passionate and patient and taught me a lot in just one class. Her studio is beautiful and clean and full of great natural light. I am looking forward to incorporating more of her classes into my workouts.

New studio space is not only perfectly located, but is very bright, clean and motivating. Michelle took me right where my body needed to go; targeting muscles that have been dormant for years. An instructor that is able to adjust and modify you while also engaging you in fun conversation is not easy to come by. Having been a fitness instructor it's hard for me to find a challenging workout, Michelle has nailed it. Side note I have been in group classes with people I hadn't met before and walked away grateful for sharing the experience with them. Take the leap and jump into a group class opening if you can!

I took my first Pilates class with Michelle, and she was (is!) phenomenal. She has a kind and encouraging demeanor all while supporting you as your push yourself to achieve your fitness goals. Her studio is the perfect size for small groups or a solo session. The studio hosts the classic Charleston warmth of an older building, combined with the refreshed energy and zen Michelle’s design brings to the space. I highly recommend checking out Momentum Movement Studios!

The absolute best! The space is truly a breath of fresh air and super inviting. This was my first time ever on a Reformer and admittedly, I was a bit nervous! Michelle is so warm, welcoming, and friendly. Her knowledge of Pilates and movement is clear from the moment class begins. She takes the time to make everything very accessible through clear cueing for proper form. If you’re looking to switch up your routine, reap the benefits of full mind & muscular engagement at a slower pace and have some fun - this is the place! Thank you, Michelle!!

I love this studio! Michelle is a dream trainer. She seamlessly makes your muscles feel a little burn but you don’t even realize it’s happening until it’s over. Each workout is tailored to your needs and physical restrictions, but typically a workout feels like giggling and stretching. The space is beautiful and full of natural light. I can’t wait to come back!
