I am traveling from NYC, where I practice Pilates avidly and teach anatomy classes in a Pilates…read moreteacher training program, and I am SO happy to have found the Pilates Place here in Grass Valley. I have had individual sessions with their newest teacher, Sofia, and have been to two group classes now with Jacqueline. I DEEPLY appreciate that the group classes are small enough that each student receives individual attention. I have had scoliosis all my life and I rely on Pilates to help unravel and realign my spine and improve my overall posture, which takes a thoughtful instructor who incorporates stretching and addresses alignment and fine movements. It's SO difficult to find group Pilates classes that feel thoughtful as well as give a great workout, and I'm overjoyed to have encountered the Pilates Place to continue my practice while I'm away from my home studio in Gramercy. This studio also has the Konnector system (four straps!) on their reformers; I've never used it before and it adds a new element of balance and body awareness to the practice that I've never experienced! I'm already excited for my next class.

When I first joined Yoga Well I loved it. I thought they were body positive and amazing. I even…read morewent so far as to pay for their yoga teacher training. In the last few days I have learned that the owner, Sarah Molaro, is petty and hypocritical. She boasts about her training in trauma and being trauma informed as well as spouting yoga principles of doing no harm, but does not live what she preaches. Due to mistakes made in budgeting by Sarah, when the yoga teacher training class collapsed half way through due to lack of attendance, Sarah informed me that I could only continue training if I paid an additional $720 on top of what we agreed to for training. I refused and requested she apply the money for hours of training I had not received(a total of $300) as studio credit so she didn't have to pay me back but I still got my money's worth. She has refused all options I have given her and is demanding I follow her original refund policy of applying it towards another teacher training class. Something I would be okay with, execpt she has repeatedly informed me that she doesn't intend to continue the yoga teach training classes and is likely closing the studio in less than 3 months when the rent is raised. On top of this, in the dispute of the refund, she chose to lose her temper and lash out in a very unprofessional way, taking private personal things I had disclosed to her as my teacher and throwing them in my face in an attempt to wound. Please be careful with this teacher. She preaches yoga philosophy and being respectful of trauma, but she does not practice what she preaches. The second you disagree with her, she becomes defensive and attacks. This studio is not the safe space it claims to be.

Transformative Training Program with Coach Eric Trust the…read moreprocess that Coach Eric guides you on and you will be amazed with the results. For the first time in my life, I've found a strength training program that is customized to my body and my needs. I went into the program with concrete physical goals - reducing pain in my shoulder as well as starting to learn how to properly lift heavier weights. Now, six months in, not only have a reached my goals, but I've exceed them. My shoulder pain is gone, and is structurally improved and strengthen so that I am confident about using my shoulder without fear of aggravation. I went from barely being able to lift a 45 lb barbell to most recently a 115 lb deadlift - and I believe that's just the beginning! Additionally, I'm better able to do daily tasks better such as hiking, swimming and gardening. I travel often for work, and Coach Eric was very flexible in scheduling and also creating a program that worked for me while I was gone - and as an added bonus - improving my physical well-being so that I did not have pain as a result of travel. As a person who has received training in leadership coaching, in my opinion Coach Eric is much more than a fitness coach. His style and approach to partnering with you to break through limiting beliefs, patterns and behaviors is powerful. What I've learned about myself through working with him has been priceless. **Would I recommend?** Absolutely, without hesitation. Don't be intimidated by the structure of the program or the classes - it is not what you will be used to, and that is actually a really good thing. Invest in yourself and you'll be grateful you did.

Even though I enjoy exercise, it felt like a full-time job to figure out how to stay fit and prevent injury as I age. I have practiced many different fitness modalities (crossfit, fitness clubs, pilates, yoga). This is the first one that has felt simple, clear, and effective. I experienced results at FiF immediately--in my mood, my confidence, and my strength. I have retained excellent mobility without all the tricks and recipes and overthinking. Pain that I had in my right hip and right foot has disappeared. I have osteopenia but my bone density has not declined; I fully expect it to increase in the next couple of years as I solidify my practice at FIF. Eric helped me to get clear on my fitness goals and the process to get there. I want to be able to camp and hike with my family for decades to come, I want to continue my acro yoga practice and remain injury-free; I want to garden and care for my land into my 80s and beyond (I'm 58 now.) As with most people, my schedule is quite full (full-time job, ailing mother, children, land to steward); I am thrilled to know I can accomplish my goals with a mere three hours a week training. I had always thought I needed to be at it hours a day most days a week. Actually, so many of the things I used to believe about fitness I have (thankfully) learned are not true. I can honestly say that my time with Form is Function has been life-changing in the best way and I give them my highest recommendation.
