I am thrilled with my transformation after working out at Swell Pilates! It has gotten me in shape, reduced my serious back problems and is a great alternative to running and hot yoga, which strained my back. I also love the welcoming and friendly vibe from the staff.

Disappointed in my experience. Looked for a studio that would educate my sister who has never taken pilates. Instructor didn't go over basic terminology and positions. As someone who has taken classes with multiple instructors, I was flabbergasted at how offended she was when I asked her to demonstrate on the reformer what she was asking. Most instructors demonstrate on open reformers or the floor. If you're looking for hands on, experienced instructors who are well versed on form, this is not the place for you.

I had an amazing dry needle session with Allyn last night. I am thrilled I don't have to see a Doctor for injections in my low back. I am a believer in dry needling! Slept like a baby too!

I went yesterday for the first time. Allyn’s skill at dry needling is amazing! My neck and shoulders haven’t felt so relaxed in years. I slept like a kitten, and I feel like a new person!

Really deserves a million or so stars. Swell is AMAZING! Where to even begin with the praise? I am first and foremost out of pain and have avoided back surgery since I started private and group Pilates. Everyone there is incredibly knowledgeable, kind and fun. I actually enjoy going to workout! The owner is not only a Pilates instructor but a physical therapist, and there is another amazing physical therapist, Pilates instructor on staff. All of the instructors work together and plan individual workouts to help every client, particularly those folks with injuries . The classes are small and challenging, but safe. The little boutique has great gifts and comfy, cool clothing. Dry needling and cranial/sacral massage are two other great offerings for wellness. Lastly, as equestrian, I am able to ride with better balance, and without paying. Overall, just a wonderful place! Amazing

I’m so lucky to have found Swell Pilates. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I couldn’t wish for better instructors. Aja pays close attention to my individual needs, preferences, and limitations, and adjust workouts accordingly. Being a suffer of autoimmune disease, she has been able to help relieve my chronic pain as well as help me build strength and coordination. Swell Pilates has changed my life and I’m am forever grateful

I have been going to Swell consistently for 3 months now. It’s such an approachable studio and atmosphere for Pilates beginners. The class sizes are small and every instructor I have had has been welcoming and helpful. I credit this studio for making me what I hope is a lifelong Pilates student. Would highly recommend!

I have been attending Swell for private and group lessons for about 3 years and it has done me the world of good. I used to get tennis injuries in my calves all the time and after my first year at Swell, and into my next tennis season - no injuries. Each one of the trainers is excellent and knowledgeable and I attend as often as I am able! I even manage to bring my husband to a semi private lesson every now and then!

I am a Physical Therapist and have only entered Swell. I was amazed by the professionalism I saw, the beautiful space and was wowed by client comments about how Swell helped them so much with their strength and reported dramatic improvements to their function. Would highly recommend.

I have been going to Swell Studio since January and I can’t say enough good things about it. All the instructors are knowledgeable and very professional. I am a Senior and am not pushed to do what a 20 year old can do, but rather, encouraged to do what I can within my limits. The stretching and workouts have already made a difference in my balance and carriage. A great place to be!

Less than 24 hours ago I received a 20 minute dry needling session from Allyn for my intense sciatic pain that’s been going on for 2 months. I woke up this morning with so much less pain I am in shock! Why didn’t I do this sooner with the hours of pain I’ve been in? Better late than never but am a complete believer and preacher for it now and Allyn’s expertise!!

Swell Studio and their instructors have completely exceeded my expectations! I bought the package of ten one-on-one sessions and am SO glad I did this for myself. The muscle soreness feels so good and I can tell it's the healthy kind. I am 64 y.o. and haven't exercised in a decade (at least). I am convinced that after this package (and maybe one more) I'll be able to confidently (and without injury) participate in classes.

Returned to Pilates after 20 years hiatus when my back and hips hurt so badly I could not get my grand baby out of the crib and carry her downstairs in the morning. No more pain, great mobility and 4 grand babies later, I have never once thought about my back or hips. Swell Pilates is for living life!

This is by far my favorite place to practice reformer. The owner and many of the instructors are former (or sometimes current) physical therapists, which has given me peace of mind when considering the major back issues I’ve had. I cannot go to just anyone. They are knowledgeable, professional while down to earth, and caring to their clients. In addition to group classes, I’ve enjoyed private lessons thoroughly. Pilates has served as one of the best therapies for my back issue, and building those tiny muscles needed to support my spine and movement. It’s extremely therapeutic. Last-their small gift shop has the best clothing finds and candles! Cannot say enough good things about Swell. It’s my favorite 🧡🧡

I’ve been a client at Swell Studio for 6 years. I suffer from degenerative discs and lower back pain. Allyn and her team have kept me pain free for years and the atmosphere is very kind and caring.
Allyn is a licensed Physical Therapist and is able to give specific attention to your every need!!!
I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!!

I have been going to Swell for 7 years now; before that I had been doing personal training and was wearing my body out. I have seen a dramatic change in my body with Pilates. The instructors at Swell are warm, welcoming and give great modifications and corrections throughout class.

I had debilitating back pain for years. Allyn was able to correct my alignment with a mix of Pilates and Physical Therapy. She is true healer. I highly recommend her to anyone experiencing any sort of pain.

I love Swell Studio! I started out with group classes. Classes are fun and challenging and all of the instructors are fantastic. I recently began private instruction with Allyn mainly to address muscle imbalances in my neck and back that were causing pain and problems for me. Under Allyn’s instruction, I have improved my form and retrained the muscles in my neck and back to the point that my pain is mostly resolved. I am stronger, especially through my core, my posture has improved and I feel really great. I am a true believer in Pilates as a form of exercise and mind/body connection. Allyn is an amazing instructor who really knows her stuff and has helped me tremendously!

I had a fantastic experience at Swell. The studio was immaculate and the equipment was top notch. I highly recommend Swell to anyone wanting to try Pilates for the first time or for veterans looking for a new studio.
