We ended up doing a combination of in-person and virtual visits based on what was best for my schedule. I also appreciated the precautions she takes around COVID. She's also just extremely knowledgeable about the human body, which made me feel very confident in the exercises she led me in and guidance she gave. If an exercise ever felt weird, she always seems to know exactly what muscle I need to stretch/open up. Luisa was able to meet me where I was at, taking it a little slow at first, but then she really kicked our sessions up a notch when she realized I had some of the basics down. I loved that she sent me videos of the exercises for me to save and practice on my own. Overall, a great experience and I would work with her again anytime I needed a personal trainer.

Luisa has been a life-changing experience for me. She is not your typical trainer. She possesses…read morekiller intuition, immense technical/human body knowledge, and calculated patience. If you are looking for custom training with long-term impact, and are willing to put the work in, Luisa is outstanding. We have been working together about 2x a week for over 4 months and I have unlocked strength in my body and aligned my body in ways I could not have imagined. The knowledge you gain from Luisa is for life.

Rachel is an absolute joy to train with. She's classically trained in machine pilates, extremely…read morepatient, and great at explaining how the body works. Classes usually start with a quick Q&A where I ask for guidance on any of the exercises I've been working on at home, and last an hour. The workout is as tough as you make it, and I always leave feeling good. The studio is small, but never feels cramped, and has a little library where students can check out books and DVDs for home exercises. After about 9 months of weekly sessions, all of my most severe lower back pain is gone, and I have dramatically improved sitting, standing, and sleeping posture. Looking forward to seeing the results after a couple of years.

Rachel is the best Pilates teacher I have ever had - she is a genius (and I don't use this word…read morelightly!) when it comes to how the body works. What she does for her clients is more than Pilates - it's physio, it's Pilates, it's an anatomy lesson - and she tailors every single class to her clients' individual needs. Her prices are incredibly reasonable for the level of attention and care she gives in her one-on-one session. My life has changed for the better since I met Rachel and I plan to continue taking classes with her for as long as I live in NYC! Thank you Rachel!!!

I have been going to Julia at The Swan for about a year and love every single minute of it. As a…read moreformer gymnast in my early thirties, I've been struggling to find a workout which literally could transform my body while building upon my lifetime of exercise. Julia begins each session by asking me how my body is feeling and is always listening and taking mental notes. From there she'll make a quick assessment and then we begin, always building on our last session and incorporating new moves to continue strengthening and aligning my body. It is amazing how much knowledge one person can have about the movements of the human body. There may be days where I'm feeling very tired and feel I cannot muster the energy to go to my session, but I do and each time I don't regret it. In fact, I feel reinvigorated after my workout, and each time I feel so much happier and better about myself. Julia is someone who truly enjoys and has a passion for sharing her Pilates knowledge and cares for your well being. I personally believe she is is way more effective than a therapist and costs a lot less. I would recommend The Swan in a heartbeat and feel stronger, and better about myself. Looking forward to my continued success at The Swan and learning more about Pilates.
