I've been working out with Holly 1:1, 3 times a week, for about 3 months now and am so delighted! I sought out a trainer in a private gym because I had an injury/medical issue in 2016 that I never really properly recovered from & It had been stopping me from getting back into the gym on my own - I was concerned I'd injure myself because my body was out of balance & weak, and also it just felt overwhelming. I'm in my early 40s and feel more cautious than I did when I was in my 20s & 30s! So, I did some research & gave Holly a call. I started out interested in only private Pilates lessons, but our work has expanded to include strength training sessions on the gym floor. I'm starting to see results, which is awesome - my waist is trimmer, and I definitely have more muscle definition in my arms and legs. I also can tell I've gotten stronger - I feel that in my day to day life just doing regular stuff. Hiking, doing stuff in my garden, grocery store trips - I feel sturdier on my feet and a little more agile. One of my favorite moments in working out is when we discover I've gotten strong or confident enough to do a particular exercise I couldn't do before! And I totally appreciate Holly's expertise & judgement - she is cautious and always modifies or changes an exercise if something hurts or is off and I feel safe in that she won't have me do anything that's going to cause an injury. She is mindful of skipping positions that will unnecessarily strain my joints (like knees) and instead replacing them with exercises that will target the same muscle but be easier on the joint involved. I also really like Holly as a person - she's smart, patient, funny, kind, appropriately challenging. It's been fun getting to know each other and that also makes it better on the days I just don't feel like working out or am low energy for whatever reason. So basically, 10/10 - I've had a great experience & if you're interested in an experienced, pragmatic, challenging, and supportive trainer you should totally give her a call.

I am so glad I found Holly at SYNERG! Holly is the best! I have been struggling for a few years to get my body fit again due to lower back pain. I have been in a start and stop mode with working out, trying many forms of exercise and ultimately re-injuring my back. My physical therapist recommended Pilates. Since I've been working with Holly over the last 2 months I have seen a huge improvement! Holly is so kind and compassionate and works around my physical limitations, which are slowly diminishing. She is always watching to check my form and encourages me every step of the way. I can feel my strength building every week and no longer need the physical therapy sessions....read full review

Holly, the owner, has been my Pilates instructor for about 7 years. She is by far the best instructor that I have had and is very honest and flexible with scheduling conflicts that may unexpectedly arise. During the pandemic, she was willing to do virtual sessions, outdoor sessions, or subject to county regulations, private sessions in her studio. If you want a private place to take Pilates and not the mega gym, this is the place as there is only one pilates instructor at a time and sometimes a personal trainer working with a client in the separate fitness room. Prices are very reasonable too!
