Pilates in Ventura

“The owner of the studio, Gail and all of the instructors are very kind, supportive and well trained to strengthen your body and not hurt it even when you are having difficulty with certain parts of your body! I am completely confident in what they are asking me to do!“

“I’ve been working with Ayn since August and it has been amazing to see the changes in my body and pain levels. I came to Ayn with hip/lower back pain and issues with growing up pigeon toed. Over the last few months, I’ve noticed my body’s posture & muscles begin to correct itself and strengthen thanks to my sessions with Ayn. She is incredibly knowledgeable on the body and is intuitive to how my body works as well! I highly recommend!“

“Fantastic studio. Class sizes are small and the instructors are very knowledgeable and focused on proper technique.“

“Owner and principal instructor Susan Wileman has a deep knowledge of not only Pilates but the Restorative Exercise/Nutritious Movement specialty area as well (founded by author Katy Bowman). Susan communicates all her topics well, although I had to make a concerted effort in the early weeks to really sustain attention to what she was saying, not drift into a distracted state of mind. In general the small classes (3 - 6 participants) work well for me but occasionally I opt for a private session, especially to re-orient to Pilates after I've been away from it for a medical reason or a prolonged out of town trip. I did not think I would stick with Pilates long when I first started, but it grew on me. Now I feel privileged to be able to attend sessions, making progress at my own pace. I only landed at Restore Pilates because of a personal recommendation by a bodywork specialist I'd known for years; apparently she trained with Susan in the Restorative Exercise realm so she recommends Re-Store Pilates as a studio that honors and teaches alignment fundamentals in ways not common in a chain-owned/operated venues. I am grateful Susan was resourceful in sustaining her business despite prolonged Covid-era restrictions for service-sector businesses. Her long-time clientele rebounded with amazing commitment to continue with Pilates and numerous new clients are drawn to Re-Store Pilates year round.“
