All I have to say is.. I'm a Pilates girly now…read more I am writing this review as someone who is in to fitness and trying out new workouts, but never before tried Pilates. I found Village Pilates on ClassPass and booked the "beginner mat" class the night before. Getting there- There is meter parking right in front of the studio and you ring the doorbell for an instructor to let you in. As a first timer, they asked me to fill out a waiver upon walking inside. They ask for some generic information like birthdate and home address, but they also have a space where you can notify them of any injuries or health needs that should be known before taking the class. When I wrote that I had scoliosis, Len checked in with me and said I should let him know if I feel any pain during class so that he can provide me a modification. The experience- I was pleasantly surprised by my ability to follow the instructors sequence and pacing. "Len" was the instructor for the beginner mat class. He was super patient and helpful in correcting any errors in my form in a kind and respectful way. Overall a great experience and I can't wait to go back!

Upon entering the studio you will appreciate the color scheme and array of plants. The atmosphere was fresh and clean. Marissa's voice projected through the the room so calmly, I almost fell asleep twice. She's patient and affirming. She provided me with bottled water. I felt like every other participant in the class despite her noticing my belly bump. She didn't let me slack, she made sure I was positioned properly during every pose. I thought I heard her mention teaching kids as well. There are multiple instructors, classes at every level, and you can even participate virtually if you prefer. Social distancing takes place inside the studio according to the green markers on the floor. Masks are required. The studio provides space for your shoes and other belongings. I encourage all to check this place out! There's option to just drop in or commit to a membership. Next time I visit I'll be sure to take some pics!

I discovered The Dailey Method when I scheduled a three-week trip back to the area to visit family…read more I was left thinking I'd have buy passes at a few different sorts of gyms to keep up a well-rounded fitness routine. Little did I know that TDM would tick every box! From the moment I entered and was offered a fab deal for two weeks of unlimited instruction, every person I met was positive, encouraging and welcoming. TDM truly is a joyful community, run by women who appreciate dialogue and feedback. This may explain how their classes easily fill, pretty universally. The easygoing, positive welcome belied the killer workout I got the very first class I took. I've taken Pure Barre and plenty of Pilates, but TDM manages to push the boundaries of both instruction and results. I definitely recommend you ease in if you're not familiar with this thorough workout, because there isn't a muscle that's left under-worked! I find that delish, but your mileage may vary. And they compliment all this long muscle movement and alignment work with spin classes, which has its own lengthening work built into the repertoire. As I said, all fitness bases covered, and presented by people who seem.genuinely invested in their students' success. Spacious and accommodating studios? Check. Super-clean and comfortable locker rooms and shower? Check. Tempting selection of workout/leisure pieces in their front shop? Major check! So cue the proverbial needle across the record sound effect, because this glorious first week got cut short by COVID19. It was clear in conversations with all the instructors that like 98% of the businesses in LaGrange, TDM would have to temporarily close--and at a time when someone like me needs to do more-not less--to deal with the anxiety! Of course, they were doing the right thing. I was delighted to receive a message that TDM LaGrange would continue some classes online, and the TDM brand sight has even more class content, available on demand. I am very pleased to continue to engage the TDM community, as I am now, officially, a convert. But do yourself a favor: run, don't walk, to TDM LaGrange when the dust settles--or just sign up for their online content before it does. You'll find it a revelatory experience! I will definitely be returning to TDM, any time I return to the area!

I had a good first time doing the mat Pilates class with Jill. I was pleasantly surprised upon…read morewalking in to see lots and lots of beautiful workout gear from various brands like Alo Yoga, Lululemon, and others. They even had a few sale racks with 30-50% off. Luckily I was able to fight the urge this time, but I may be tempted to buy something when I go back. This class was great for beginners in my opinion. I gave it 4 stars only because I like a bit more direction in my Pilates class, and although Jill was amazing and sweet, I love when an instructor is kind and encouraging but also provides corrections. I am also a fan of music during my workout classes but if you like more peace and quiet, Jill's class will be up your alley. Despite those two minor things, I am still very interested in going back!

Well Earned 5 Star Review. My second visit here @ Pineapple Dance Studio and I'm still amazed…read more Last Night I treated myself to a Valentine's Relaxation Day. I guess since this was Valentine's I was the only one who attended the class. Which was nice because this was my first time taking a Aerial Yoga Class. It gave me a chance to have an one on one time with the instructor. Amy the instructor was very calm and patient. She made sure that I was comfortable and relax. The Love Oil had an nice aroma scent in which she put a tab of it on the inside of my wrist. It really helped me to relax and stay focus. She dim the lights and we did some warm up aerial conditioning in the silk blue hammocks. It helped me to improve my balance and strength. No, lie I was a bit nervous but her calmness helped me to relax and gain confidence. The music was so soft and inviting to the atmosphere. Pineapple Dance Studio is a place where you feel calm and soothing. Professional instructor who is patient and take time to make you feel comfortable.

Belly Dancing? Me? When a friend suggested that I take up Belly Dancing, I could barely talk I was…read morelaughing so hard. After all, what the heck would I do with my hips? Well let me tell you- hips and tummy rule in this class and once you learn to isolate your core and move only the right parts, you actually feel like you can do anything. As for me? I didn't even know my hips could move like that. Somewhere inside all of us is a hip swiveling, gyrating dancer just waiting to get out! And once that music starts- you are hard pressed to do anything but move! I rarely tie anything around my hips (after all- they really don't need any more attention!) but here in this class- tie on a sparkly hip scarf and you are transformed! Classes are offered throughout the week with a beginner class on Wednesday and Saturday. And don't fear if you have never done this before- the instructor makes everyone feel welcome and trust me- there are others in the class who are worse belly dancers than you! Shocked the heck out of me! This has to be one of the most fun ways to get exercise that I can remember. My arms looked like twining snakes, circling my body and while my shimmy needs a little work (might be the age of my chassis- Ha!) by the end of the class I was one with the music! I can't wait to move up to finger cymbals! If Belly dancing is not your thing- Pineapple also offers Zumba, West African Dancing and Piloxing which is sort of a hybrid between Pilates and boxing. Dance classes run $18 each with the exercise classes costing $10 or you can buy a series at a savings. Also know that you need to pre register for the dance classes but you can drop in for Zumba and Piloxing. Belly dancing is the oldest recorded dance form. As Shakira sang in that song from a few years ago "The hips don't lie!. But trust me- in this class - they are certainly telling quite a story!
