When it comes to fitness, I'm game for just about anything. Just about. To preface, I'm disciplined…read morein the beat-the-heck-out-of-your-body arts, you know, pushups and situps and lifting and punching, alongside a little stretching here and there, for balance. As a general rule, I like to sweat. I'm of the midwestern German/Jewish/British bloodline so my veins are pretty heated, thus when I get moving, I'm a faucet, it's disgusting, honestly. If you're anywhere near my proximity when I'm dripping, stay away. I'm like a garden hose under thunderous pressure, hurling my droplets upon unsuspecting passers by. I should also preface this with the admission that I enjoyed an introduction to Pilates from a friend/associate/trainer who offered to show me the ropes, springs and stands of the art free of charge. I didn't take a class and although the personal training session wasn't leveraged on an agreement to review the venue, I can't claim this was a genuine appointment with the business. Like many of you, I was genuinely curious about Pilates. Years of television commercials offered virtually no clue into the underworld of this fascinating practice, and once I was there, in a facility equipped with the very best, I totally got it. Pilates is the yin in my aging, overburdened yang. I'm about to turn 40, about to hit that Over the Hill mark, and that means I hurt, mysteriously, in places that never hurt before. As we age, we realize that stretching and activating those muscle groups that we ignored for 40 years suddenly matters. Momentum Studio is an excessively clean, dynamic facility decked out with machines that are built to bend you sideways, upwards and out. The contraptions in this place, man, they're genius inventions of wood and coil, pulley and spoke, the kind of thing your nutty neighbor developed in his garage, and they work wonders. One hour of work in here will realign your spine and reset your clock to Zen. Next visit, I'm investigating Barre. Can't wait.

(Brian, Aline, Liz, Kelly, & Lourdes - every one awesome) They offer (& recommend) a new customer package of four private lessons. They will allow you to split that with a friend though, making it even MORE affordable. After that they have class packages and also a drop-in rate. Open studio available for those whose training is already more advanced. I've been looking for a studio or some place to go that is more supportive than where I've been taking physical therapy (which I believe is actually making my joint injury worse as they have a specific goal in mind and push, push, push to get to it in the prescribed amount of appointments), and I've found it! I have no fear that the work I do here will be comprehensive, challenging, but appropriate for me and safe. I'm looking forward to starting Pilates equipment and Barre classes!!

Lourdes is the most patient, professional, and helpful instructor. Before my first private session,…read morewe discussed the history of my disability, so that she could understand what my goals are as well as my limits. She even worked with my treating physician to secure medical insurance coverage for 30 private sessions! Lourdes goes above and beyond to care for her clients, many of whom she considers to be friends. She has clients that have been with her for 8 and 10 years, and after only 4 months, I understand their loyalty. I knew PT wasn't making me stronger, but I didn't know what I could reasonably expect from Pilates. Lourdes has slowly and steadily helped me build strength and flexibility in a safe, supervised way that doesn't add to my injury. She checks in frequently to make sure I'm okay after a session that was particularly challenging, and she makes me feel so empowered (yep, just like the name of her business) when I can execute a particular exercise or do something that demonstrates progress. I truly appreciate how professional she is - her dedication to continuous learning and trainings that allow her to keep up with new techniques and best practices. Lourdes always wants what is best for her clients. On top of being exceptionally good at what she does, she happens to be one of the loveliest humans. When my 70-year-old mother visited ABQ, Lourdes invited her to join a session and showed such care to make her feel comfortable while getting a good workout. I've never met anyone like Lourdes, and after years of PT, I feel like Pilates is actually improving my quality of life - physically and mentally. I look forward to each session with Lourdes. Her studio is a peaceful place to exercise, and her prices are more than fair. We are lucky to have her in this community, and I'm lucky to have discovered a lifelong hobby that builds me up and allows me to spend time with someone as kind-hearted as Lourdes.

From day one, the energy is contagious, the people are welcoming, and there's a genuine community feel that makes you want to keep coming back. No matter your fitness level, you'll be treated with respect, encouragement, and a solid plan to get you where you want to be. This isn't just a gym--it's a place where real transformations happen. I've been part of the Shred program, working with my trainer CJ, and let me tell you--CJ does not let me phone it in! Every workout is designed to challenge me, push my limits, and get real results. Thanks to CJ's relentless focus on form, accountability, and keeping me motivated, I've lost weight, gained muscle mass, and built a confidence I didn't have before. It's tough, it's intense, but it's exactly what I needed to break through my plateaus. If you're ready to stop making excuses and start seeing results, Evolv Strong is the place to be. Between the expert trainers, like CJ, and programs like Shred that deliver real progress, you'll find a community that lifts you up and pushes you forward. I can't recommend Evolv Strong enough for anyone serious about changing their life for the better.

I don't think anyone else in town offers such an inviting deal. I really look forward to strengthening my practice again, and seeing this studio grow. Tip: the hot studio is located in the same building as the iLash sister company- so look for signage. Thanks for a wonderful experience!:)

I'm extremely fit and that's after a head-on auto injury in my 20's which gave me a crushed leg (they almost cut it off!!), R arm broken in half and my bones overlap now, and a head injury which was numb for 9 months. TBI? I've had a knee and 2 hip replacements and found out I have scoliosis. Mom was doubled in half when she died at 97. I focus on my back being limber so I won't have the same fate. So far no issues. I see these classes as helping me to stay strong and limber and able to use my body. Balance has also saved me from falling on many occasions! I had a PE (pulmonary embolism) a few years back and found I need to stay active to stay alive. I'm 75, 5'5" and weigh 115#. Only my close friends know how much my body has been through and I am in great physical shape, largely because of Genesis. TY Genesis! And they also have a large network so I can go to others when I'm in other states.
