Intelligent Exercise Pilates & Fitness Review

I was a sceptic. I admit that. As a cyclist, I thought there wasn't much a Pilate gym could offer me. I could not have been more wrong. After an injury, I was struggling to get back on the bike for more than 20 miles without severe knee pain. A friend recommended Intelligent Exercise, citing the staff s ability to help her develop the correct muscle groups for running distance. I learned more in a few weeks of training there than in my past 20 years of riding. There was so much of my body that I was neglecting! Well, I'm back in racing shape and I have Intelligent exercise to thank for that. Here's the thing though. This place isn't for cyclist. It isn't for the exceptionally fit. It's for anyone of any fitness level that wants to improve the way they feel EVERY DAY. The entire staff is exceptionally knowledgeable and professional. I will be a customer for life.

Pilates classes and private instruction are both an amazing (positive) challenge, and I am consistently blown away by my trainer, Shana, and her knowledge of pilates, biomechanics, and anatomy to help me get stronger and overcome injury. Intelligent Exercise is a warm and inviting place where I feel comfortable and am pushed to improve in areas that will support my own goals for movement. If I could afford to, I would certainly go more than 1x/week.

I can highly recommend this place. Small classes with very experienced and skilled trainers .I found them after I hurt myself at another Pilates studio where I was not able to get specific individualized instructions. My posture and core strength has improved.

Catherine (Cat) is an incredible personal trainer. I'm 8 months pregnant and still doing weekly Pilates sessions with her. She is keeping me strong and my baby safe. I look forward to our weekly sessions. Amazing trainer and really positive environment.

I started taking classes virtually with Melissa Francis of Intelligent Exercise (spring 2020). I have dabbled at Pilates on and off for years, but now, due to Melissa's expert guidance, I am seriously hooked. Even with the challenges of a virtual class, she gives such clear - and intelligent! - cues, I am able to deepen my practice effectively even though I'm thousands of miles away. She is a very gifted and caring teacher. Students of any level would benefit immensely from studying with her.

Great place to work out! The studio draws different types of bodies with different needs, from dancers to the uncoordinated. Somehow Melissa, Shana and the other trainers make the classes work for all of us.

Thanks 1 for taking your weekend for training and 2 for giving us a safe, educated studio full of super qualified instructors. The more I meet trainers from other studios the more I realize just how awesome intelligent is!!!
