Rachel is fantastic!! I just moved back to Chicago from Georgia, boy have I missed Rachel! She is, absolutely, the best pilates teacher I've ever been to.
This location is small but exactly what you need. This new, fabulous studio located right in the heart of the Lincoln Park on Armitage, is a find! A refreshing spot with equipment and mat classes.
But, the real gem is the actual teaching. Rachel has a dance background and you can tell with her diligence and attention to detail (I *highly *highly* highhhhly* recommend doing a solo class with her on the equipment-- you may notice different muscles working than what was working at previous studios). She's precise and you can feel a difference. And while she may be technical and focused in on your doing the exercises correctly, she's also fabulously sweet and friendly.
This is a true gem and while it may be a new studio, I am SHOCKED to see no one else has written up a *glowing* recommendation.
Definitely a pilates studio worth trying out... and you'll probably just love it!! read more
