Pilates Design Studio

I have been a student of Danielle's for over 5 years. She is a patient and caring instructor. I have participated in the tower and matt classes offered. While working with Danielle, I have become stronger, in particular in my core, which has provided relief for my back issues and improvement with posture.

I am continually impressed by Danielle. As a client for more than a decade, I know her to be a master teacher, tailoring the private classes to both challenge me, as well as help strengthen and rehabilitate my body. I am more toned and stronger than I have ever been. Danielle is constantly learning new ways to enhance her clients' experiences: her knowledge of brain function and the exercises to promote visual and cognitive abilities have been life changing.

I have had severe foot and back pain for several months, and started to require a cane to get around. Within three sessions at Danielle’s studio, I was able to walk further and run a short distance. Returning to the gym for simple walking on a treadmill and exercising on the elliptical was now possible for the first time in four months. Following the forth visit to Danielle, my foot is now 100% cured! I am able to walk for miles with absolutely no pain, my back feels better than it has in years, and we are now moving forward with routines to strengthen my core muscles.
I am pleased to offer this testimonial to the efficacy of Pilates, and I recommend it to others who have experienced similar problems. Thank you!

Danielle is not like other Pilates instructors. I came to her with a horrible disk injury in my lower back, arthritic pain in my wrists, and a degenerative condition of both knees that basically had me barely able to climb stairs with low heels on my feet- without holding on to stair rails. Danielle has given me my life back. She has a "gift" of - as I always say- of being able to "see through your skin", enabling her to see if you are misaligned in any way. And she knows exactly how to go about fixing it. I can't say enough of her abilities. And if all you are looking to do is simply get into rocking shape via Pilates, she can do that too. She is amazing.

Danielle is beyond excellent as a trainer and healer. I am hooked, and have benefited so much! I get an intense workout, plus she focuses on issue spots which have dramatically improved from her expertise. I feel sensational after every session. Recommend her beyond words.
