Client Testimonials

"I can’t say enough good things about Restore. Starting a new practice can be very intimidating and scary but the women at Restore make you feel safe and empowered. I was very anxious to start group classes since I am quite new at Pilates but I’ve never felt self conscious in their classes. I love the small class sizes and every member I’ve met has been kind and welcoming. Restore is my new “third space” 💓"

Marta Kubica

"I started at Restore Pilates two years ago as a complete Pilates newbie, and now it’s something I look forward to every week!

The instructors are incredible—knowledgeable, supportive, and always helping you improve. The small class sizes mean you get the attention you need, which was especially helpful when I was just starting out."

Heather Davis

"I’ve been taking private classes with Allison most weeks for the past year at Restore Pilates and during this time I’ve finally healed from an Achilles heal injury and RESTORED my balance and strength. I always feel so good after a session, and now I’ve started participating in group classes with the other instructors. LOVE it!"

Helen Cameron

"Jeanne and her team have created such a welcoming environment for Pilates newbies like myself. I was very nervous for my first lesson but she was so kind and encouraging. I’ve mostly taken private lessons with Tassiana who is an amazing instructor. I was worried about an old neck injury and Tassiana always checked on my comfort and adjusted if necessary while still giving me a killer workout. Thank you Tassiana and Jeanne!"
