Since taking from Virginia, I have greatly increased my core strength, reduced back pain from a constant occurrence to infrequent bouts, and improved my posture and alignment. Virginia's experience as an ER nurse, her many years as a professional dancer, her MA in theater, specializing in kinestheology, not to mention her extensive Pilates training under Michelle Larson, an internationally known Pilates master, has given her unique skills as a teacher and trainer. Her observations and insight concerning movement create the foundation for a healing environment. She is equally good training beginners, rehab clients, as well as elite athletes. I feel very privileged to have her as a teacher.

My very first time on a reformer was scary and I was embarrassed I would not know what to do. Teri's sweet demeanor helped to put me at ease and totally comfortable.

Between labor itself and carrying around a baby I had several areas of pain and a body that felt super out of balance. Ashly was so kind and knowledgeable. Her methods were gentle but worked very quickly. The first session the pain from the bicipital tendinitis I had been diagnosed with was gone. I really only needed one tune up session for it. My hips now feel so much better and lighter the post baby birthing pains have stopped. I am currently getting help from Ashly for my ankle that I severely rolled when I fell while holding a baby throwing a fit. I will be seeing Ashly just to keep my body together between working, being a mom and wife it needs some extra attention.

The barre classes are such a hard workout, it is one of those burns so good kinda way. I am not much of a gym person so this is getting me to work out and doing something I enjoy. The instructors are great! There are other classes too such as yoga, mat Pilates, and reformer Pilates. Every class I have tried is great, although the most burn I get is the barre class. If you get a chance to try it out, go straight to their website or walk-in to see about special discounts.

"YOU WILL ONLY FAIL, IF YOU GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!"…read more I've been on the other side of this quote countless times. In the past, I constantly gave up on myself and started over a handful of times. My goals were never achievable and I always became disheartened leading me to quit. When I started to train with Holly a year ago I was terrified. My first fear was "what if I fail again?" My second fear was showing my weakness to a stranger. The first session was an eye-opener to me. I realized my body lacked stability, control and my range of movement limited. That first session set the foundation for future sessions that were completely centered around me. This past year of training with her has been the best year of my life. I have gained so much more self-love, confidence in my ability to do workouts correctly and I have a better understanding of my limitations and don't go far beyond them (to prevent injury). The biggest accomplishment was I didn't give up on myself! Holly has instilled so much knowledge in me. I brag about Holly to all of my friends and family and recommend her to everyone!

My wife started semi-private training sessions last year and convinced me to start in February this year. I'm in my mid-fifties and never regularly exercised, was overweight, and had horrible balance. While the workouts are tough, I won't deny that, the results are undeniable and so worth it. Doug's specialty is pushing you to do more than you thought you could do and Tori rocks at keeping your form effective and giving you positive energy and encouragement. I only wish I had started going to The Body Firm years ago. Do yourself a good health favor and go see Doug, Tori and their team.
