“Karlon Kepcke, the owner, helped me through a difficult period of healing. Great studio!“
“After Cheryl showed me some specific exercises to do on the Cadillac machine, my sacrum/SI joints have never felt better. I feel like I had a successful surgery that made the problem go away for longer than it has in the past. Even after chiropractic adjustments, the joints go in and out of place with a sneeze or rolling over during sleep, or driving. It's been 2 days since I saw you and it's still going! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I could cry just knowing that there could be a solution to the daily discomfort and pain I have with sitting and most activities due to those joints (and others) constantly subluxating. I have a lot of mobility issues, injuries and pain due to Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Pilates is the one form of exercise I can do that helps instead of hurts me. I highly recommend classes or private lessons with Cheryl to help you get your strength and life back!“

“Until I met Laura, I was looking for a quick fix or a simple solution to my back troubles. After many months of suffering, and not finding any real support at Kaiser, I was referred to Laura by a friend. She helped me understand the mechanics of my problem, and got me started with doing exercises to strengthen the underlying weakness in my core. It's been a long, slow road but I am on my way to getting stronger and back to the things I did before my injury. Laura was the first stop on my true healing journey- she does great work, especially for people who are dealing with acute back injuries.“

The teachers here are all great, and really know their stuff. Excellent core and whole body strengthening. I can’t recommend this little studio highly enough!“
“I am a clinical psychologist in San Francisco. I have spent my adult life looking for different treatments for human stress, trauma, and general discomfort. In the Bay area today there is a wonderful synthesis of several modalities coming together emphasizing the role of body, mind, and awareness. Sidney Tarlow of Pilates by the Bay has brought all together with a brilliant understanding of Pilates, psychology, and physiology in her approach to Pilates. I have tried several pilates teachers in the Bay Area but not found anyone to match Sid. This is not a place for those who want glitz; it is a place for those who want to learn a stunningly deep and effective way to reconnect with their body in a wonderful and, actually, miraculous, way taught by a consummate, kind, and brilliant teacher. Sign up and stick with it. You will be amazed as I have been.“
“I have experienced the benefits of Oshana's literally healing arts for different reasons over at least a decade. She is an experienced physical therapist, who I originally visited following an injury, but she is also a practitioner of many approaches to body work. She really excels at devising a program suited to individual needs, is super perceptive about pain and movement, and is very practiced at prescribing methods to increase mobility and strength. So grateful for the all the help she has given me, and now look forward to attending some of her group sessions! Highly reccommend Oshana!“

“Fantastic! I enjoyed my 1 on 1 Pilates lessons with Sharman. She is professional, knowledgeable and very patient! The studio is spacious and clean and the teachers were friendly and genuinely wanted your Pilates experience to be top notch! Thank you, MLR“
“Dr. Lauren Malachowski is currently my treating physical therapist. As someone who has been both a physical therapy patient off and on for the past 40 years, and a rehabilitation professional who worked with physical therapists collegially, and co-treated patients with them, I am eager to let folks know what an exceptionally talented physical therapist Dr. Malachowksi is. Not only is she accomplished with all of the standard and cutting-edge knowledge and skill of a well-trained and licensed physical therapist, but she brings to the work a rare sensibility for grasping the whole person, along with a passionate commitment to assist patients in realizing their rehabilitation goals. Perhaps most unusual, I have found that within a very short time she showed an uncanny intuitive ability to understand exactly what I needed as a patient, despite my presenting with a complicated history of musculo-skeletal challenges. Dr. Malachowski’s uncommon insight as a clinician felicitously combines with an accurate empathic quality and a genuine relational facility that makes the experience of working with her fresh and effective. Most remarkable of all, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Malachowski forged a powerfully functional, individually-honed and fruitful therapeutic relationship with me, entirely through remote means.Eliezer T.

“If you are looking for one on one pilates instruction I highly recommend Carmen Zeni. And if you haven't considered it I would encourage trying it. I am starting my third year of pilates with Carmen. I am an athlete; played college tennis and still do. Pilates - is critical to my ability, at 74, to play singles 2,3 times a week. And to work on my overall strength and flexibility and posture. Carmen has a rare combination deep pilates knowledge, knowledge of the human body and people skills. My flexibility and body strength has increased since I started and Carmen has been great helping me rehab from various injuries when needed. Her studio has great gear including a reformer, trapeze table and core align. If you want to learn pilates or expand your work Carmen's studio wonderful.“

“I love Red Dragon Yoga. I lived in San Anselmo in 2017, the highlight of my days and sometimes my weeks were often intense yet super relaxing yoga sessions at RDY.I moved back this year (in 2023) and I was so happy to see that they had survived the pandemic, both personally and business-wise. They could not be more helpful in a customer service sense and the instructors are knowledgeable, experienced, deeply involved and extraordinarily beautiful people.Sarah at the front desk is magically positive and really "ties the room together." (Big Lebowski reference)I vote yes!“
“They have very nice equipment and a good variety. Other members are very respectful. I love that it is not crowded.“

“Kathleen is one of those caregivers that you don't encounter very often. She is highly skilled and educated in her craft of physical therapy and Pilates and is equally adept in putting you at ease, listening to your needs, and offering a nurturing environment while she is providing excellent care for you. I will never go to another physical therapist because I know that the care I receive from her is unmatched. Also of note is her highly capable and friendly staff. The entire atmosphere is welcoming and professional. If I could give 10 out of 10 stars I would but they only allow 5!“
