  • I loved it! Yesterday was my first time on a reformer. Alex is super knowledgeable. She made class both challenging and fun. This was the perfect fix for my rainy season blues. Looking forward to going back.

  • Alex at Black Cat studio has made me so excited and motivated to workout every single day. I didn't know much about Pilates and thought I would give it a try, as I enjoy various degrees of exercise and working out. NOW I AM HOOKED! Pilates provides strength, stability, mobility and targets areas I didn't even know I had! It's helping me surf better, be in better physical shape and motivated for the next workout. Alex is a top notch teacher and takes the time to help you understand the movements and corrects when needed. 5 star, just above and beyond!

  • My family and I always wanted to try Reformer Pilates and Alex and Anna did not disappoint. Their classes were challenging and fun. Fifty minutes flew by and it was such a great workout. They’ve made us Pilates addicts.

    - The LeBlanc’s from Canada

  • I love this pilates studio - it's new, clean and with only 6 reformers, it almost feels like you're getting a 1:1. Alex is a great instructor - she's fun but will also put you to work. Her instructions and muscle cues are clear - she also provides adjustments, if needed. This studio is for all - first timers or for those who frequently use pilates. Would highly recommend giving it a try!

    - D. Hernandez

  • I’m absolutely in love with my Pilates reformer classes! The instructors are beyond amazing: kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to every detail of your form and flow. Each class challenges you in the best way, combining strength, control, and grace. I’ve felt my body getting stronger and more aligned with every session. It’s not just a workout, it’s a full-body reset, and I leave every time feeling lighter.
