I have been doing mat Pilates for over 10 years and recently moved from the Bay Area to Sebastopol…read morearea. I did a lot of research online and visited several Pilates studios in the Sebastopol. I was very happy with my previous studio and instructor and was looking for something similar. I wanted small classes, knowledgeable & friendly instructors, personal attention, suitable class schedule, clean, comfortable & well-equipped studio, easy parking, and affordable fees. Well, I found the perfect fit for me at Simply Pilates! Colleen is an amazing instructor. She is fun, energetic, and most importantly, knowledgeable in body physiology and the Pilates method. In every class, Colleen constantly gives verbal cues on posture and breathing. She varies what we do in each class so it is not repetitive and gets boring. We all know that Pilates is about strengthening the body core to improve posture, strength and flexibility. In my previous classes, I was just instructed to "suck" in my abs. With Colleen, the instruction is more detailed and she gets us to "identify, feel, work, & strengthen" so many different parts of our body that makes up our "core". I highly recommend Colleen and her Simply Pilates studio. She makes classes so fun and your body feel so good.

In a town with many excellent studios and teachers, Colleen has struck the perfect balance of size, offerings and is a teacher at the top of her game. An outstanding, compassionate, driven teacher, with the combination of training and knowledge, commitment to helping her students and being invested in their progress. Working with her at Simply Pilates is the best workout environment I've experienced. I've trained with Colleen for 4+ years. Our work finds improvement in every workout. Weekly work is so important to stay strong and healthy. Colleen has taught and shepherded me through two injuries (not from doing pilates ;\), two significant body dynamic issues and ongoing minor aches and pains. :D Run! Don't walk, to Simply Pilates!

I didn't think Pilates would be the right fit for me, but I noticed right away that it made not only a difference in my posture and the way I felt when I left, but it stayed with me throughout the week. My golf game has improved, and the teachers have done an amazing job with a reoccurring knee injury I've had undiagnosed for the past year or so. I am stronger, more flexible, and I pay attention to my posture much more, which helps keep me out of my bad habits and out of discomfort. I've taken classes with many of the teachers and done some private sessions -- I really can't say enough for the studio and the staff. They have a great selection of classes, including equipment classes and mat classes, and you can build up to what they call self-directed workouts. With self-directed you can come into the studio on your own and practice -- kind of like a gym membership. I was actually surprised at how detailed and intelligent Pilates is as an exercise system. The teachers blend an incredible knowledge of anatomy and functionality with so much clarity. They seem inspired and motivated by what they do and it genuinely makes me want to keep doing Pilates. I've already referred friends and family to Pilates Collective. It's definitely the place I want to spend my time and money when it comes to taking better care of myself.

I'm not new to Pilates or the world of core development, fitness and how the body can get into bad compensation patterns especially as we get older (I'm now 50 and I want to stay active) so I think I have a good idea of what I'm looking for in a trainer. So when I did some research and found Breathe Diversity I picked Sherrese Mikell. I've seen her now 3 or 4 times and have enjoyed the sessions. I've continued to be impressed with her knowledge of the body and movement, her ability to change things up when a movement she has me do doesn't feel quite right and her ability to keep the sessions light and enjoyable. I definitely would recommend her to anyone who wants to stay active while aging gracefully.

I had been to more corporate-type PT offices in Santa Rosa, where the PTs would give me exercises and then leave the room while I did them. So impersonal! I needed someone to do physical manipulation, and to show me how to move correctly so I wouldn't re-injure my shoulder. Sebastopol Physical Therapy is a warm and homey place full of caring and knowledgeable people who had real concern for my well-being. I've seen them for a couple of months, and the range of motion in my shoulder is almost back to normal. We also discovered that my mouse, keyboard, and chair were causing the problems with my neck and shoulders, and I've been able to make changes so that my shoulder doesn't freeze up again. I really enjoy Steve, Meghan, Sarah, and the entire staff. It was a great experience, and I recommend them if you want to get to the root of your pain or injuries and get better!

After each session I walk out feeling taller and my body is invigorated--I have greater awareness of how my body is moving. My breathing is also deeper and more open. Ashley is extremely attentive, making slight adjustments to my posture during the movements, ensuring that I am working the muscles that are meant to be worked. The movements never get boring or repetitive as she has a comprehensive knowledge of different ways to achieve the same goal--the goals are the same but there are many paths to get there. Ashley is a born teacher (strict, but compassionate) with a complete understanding of the human body and how it works. Her kindness, coupled with attention to detail, ensures your workout is effective.

I have taken both Barre and Reformer Pilates classes in her studio. I tend to become bored with exercise repetition, but Julie's classes offer a wide variety and challenge to keep me engaged. As a senior student I am benefitting from greater core strength, spinal re-alignment, stamina and flexibility. When I first began taking Pilates I experienced joint pain and limited range-of-motion in my body. But, by taking Julie's classes I am now enjoying greater muscle tone and improved joint flexibility. Julie addresses the individual needs of each student, through customized exercise to maintain a safe but challenging Pilates program. Her classes combine Reformer equipment, light weight use of balls, bands and mat, building from the beginning basics to more advanced concepts and exercise. Julie's studio prices are reasonable, and her professional upbeat approach is great!

There is a nice intro offer that lets you try out a lot of different classes to really find the instructor that works for you.

The spin studio has Keiser bikes and they are kept well maintained. The room is kept dark, there are 3 rows of bikes, about 36 total. Good ventilation, free towels, and everyone is really friendly. There are two screens that rank all the riders, you can choose to be on it or not. The yoga classes also have great instructors. The hot yoga is really great.
