I know Francesca for more than 10 years. I have been to many different Pilates studios in the metro area and by far she is the best Pilates instructor I have ever worked with. I’ve done both private and group sessions with her and she is simply amazing in both settings. She is very knowledgable, deeply cares about her clients, listens to the individual’s needs, and provides customized training. Once you work with her, no other studio will measure up. Her reformer classes can do wonders for your core and stability. Could not recommend her enough.

Francesca is amazing. When I began with Francesca, I had two young kids, and had only a very basic knowledge of Pilates and certainly never reformer, nor worked out for the last 4 years. She listened to my needs and expectations and developed a program that worked for me. She is excellent at targeting exact areas of the body you’d like to tone and creating an exercise program unique to you. I’ve also had knees surgeries and she is great on modifying exercises. I feel back to my pre pregnancy body and am so happy I found her! Highly recommend!

I worked with Francesca for months as a way of cross-training and maintaining strength and flexibility while training for triathlons. We pivoted our workouts when I got pregnant as a way to stay physically and mentally healthy during the covid lockdown. Every workout was customized and I always felt like I had a great workout based on my condition at the time. Highly recommend for pre/post natal or as a way of cross-training!

Amazing is the best/only way to describe Francesca at Powercore. She is incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming and a clear-cut experienced professional.

As someone new to Pilates seeking to improve core strength and knock out back pain, Francesca’s process really takes into account your goals & physique in her teaching style with focus on form to attain these goals. Highly recommend this service. You won’t regret it!

Francesca is an amazing teacher ! I had so many troubles with my back and absolutely not a fitness girl, but thanks to her, this memory is long gone and I even enjoy a good workout with her ! She always takes in consideration how your body feels and she adjusts the exercice to help you. And the must for me was about all the virtual classes she offers now : with 2 kids, it is the only way for me to keep training ! Pilates changed my life thanks to her kindness and motivation ☺️

I have known Francesca of Powercore Pilates and been her client for over a decade. I have recommended Francesca to many of my friends in the past years because I know she can be that source of knowledge when it comes to Pilates and adjusting to each client's needs. After an injury, Francesca understood my difficulty in range of motion in my left shoulder and was able to tailor the Pilates movements to be more comfortable to perform and also assisted in my physical therapy at every session. She would recommend exercises that I can do at home and reinforce it when she saw me in class. The attention that Francesca provides to her clients shows that she cares about her clients and that's how she is able to maintain her client relationship so well over the years I have known her. I have worked out with her other clients at group sessions and they are many same faces that I have seen over the years. She has known me since my early 20s and I am now in my mid 30s. It goes to show the trust that I have in her to be my Pilates and personal trainer. Even with the pandemic, she was able to quickly adjust to the situation and offered virtual classes including group Pilates class that I am still a part of. She always asks her clients for feedback throughout the years to ensure that her clients are getting what they need and if there are areas that she can improve upon or offer better, she will try her best to accommodate or take on the challenge. Last but not least, her studio is very well maintained and has the necessary equipment that will keep you engaged and challenged in each session, whether it's a Pilates class or a personal training session.

I absolutely love doing Powercore pilates. Not only do I have the best time working out, I feel so strong and energized afterwards. Francesca is a patient and caring teacher, and she makes the whole experience so enjoyable. She explains every thing clearly, so no prior experience is necessary. I definitely recommend doing Powercore pilates for anyone who is interested in getting an amazing workout and having a good time.

Francesca knowledge of the classic pilates method and continuing education makes her a great instructor, she spends time explaining each position and ensures you are getting the best work out. She has been a life saver for me, when I started going to her studio I was having cronic pain and now almost 2 1/2 years of practicing my pain has reduced and my body feels stronger my posture has improved overall a great place
Thank you Francesca!

I’ve worked with Fran for about 3 years now and she is an excellent and knowledgeable trainer. She trained me throughout my pregnancy. Fran was able to work on strength and challenge me in a very safe and effective way which helped with my delivery and post-partum recovery. I highly recommend power core Pilates!

I highly recommend Francesca to anyone looking for a Pilates instructor or personal trainer. She pushes me to get the most out of every workout, focusing on meeting goals and using proper form. At the same time, she emphasizes safety, taking care to avoid injury. She knows her stuff, is fun and encouraging, and gets results!

Once you experience the Powercore Pilates, you will never be satisfied with any other instruction. I have lost 2 pant sizes, I am toned, and I continually receive compliments on being in shape. All because of Powercore Pilates. I am treated with respect, concern and care. Don't waste your money elsewhere !

Francesca has been my personal trainer & pilates teacher for 11 years. She takes enormous individual interest in her clients, gets to know their bodies, strengths & weaknesses and helps us to improve in every way -- strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, proper breathing & attitude. (Her approach includes a significant mind-body component.) Last year, I had a spinal fusion operation. Fran read my medical reports & met with my physical therapist to ensure we all agreed on the best exercises for each stage of my recovery. I have worked with PTs for 40 years & have had at least 4 others. Fran is absolutely the best. I highly recommend her for individual PT & pilates. She also offers terrific classes for 2, 3 or more people. If you have a hard time exercising, get a friend or two & set up a group program with Francesca. You'll love it -- & your friends will too.
