Pilates in Naples picked by BestProsInTown
“Good energy! Very encouraging instructors! Manages to motivate you to push yourself while also taking your own pace and providing variations. Highly encourage taking her Pilates classes! They do also provide spinning and other classes, definitely worth checking out!”
“The class was great. Balanced and certainly at level 2.0. Stamina and of course knowledge of pilates language necessary. A little too dark in the studio for me. Could not see the spring colors well… blue vs green. Probably my eyes however i like to see what im doing. Great class!”
“I’ve been going here for a very long time. Amy and Rick Lademann are the owners. Their knowledge on all fronts of exercise is beyond compare. From barre to Pilates to weight training- they encourage you to keep going even though you’re spent! Each of their trainers brings their own style to the table and will guide you through vigorous workouts. Another plus is having Divine Touch Massage on the premises. Another step in keeping your body where it needs to be!”
“Wendy is truly a Master Pilates Instructor who has an exceptional understanding of the intricacies of the body’s movements, structure and connections. Her instructional mastery is founded in physical therapy principles and the application of those principles to Pilates is exactly what we all need to stay healthy, strong, and functional as we age and focus on longevity. She trains her staff to a very high standard so that one can expect expert, professional and personalized instruction from every staff member. I would not take Pilates anywhere else and am so thankful to be a client of The Pilates Firm.”
“I had an injury on my shoulder, very painful recovery. Audra and Joe was amazing in helping me to exercise it so I wouldn’t have a frozen shoulder. I’m also a bartender and developed a tennis elbow, after few fascia treatments from Audra she totally cured it. Both are very knowledgeable about everything and anything has to do with body. Clean and friendly gym, highly recommended!”
“I have been doing Pilates for over 20 years. I moved to Florida a few years back and was recommended to GW Studios. So much about a studio is the instructors. Gina and Allie strike a nice balance of a hard workout, but not crippling. So you get a great work out, but don't feel left behind. I have now taken over 30 classes, I am over 65 and can without hesitation recommend GW Pilates for Beginners to Advanced.”
“I had been a client for three+ years with excellent results; plus a fun place to be. But, this year I had to stop due to some issues. Then, after six months being away (from Mike Edwards, the owner), I contacted him with a problem that I was having with my right leg; so bad, that I had to use a cane half the time. With just a 30 minute session, Mike diagnosed my problem, demonstrated the exercises that would help me, and four hours later I am walking with no cane. Fabulous place! The facility has a wide variety of equipment and the owner, Mike Edwards, is an excellent trainer. And if Mike is not available, there are other trainers. This is a professional and friendly place at which to spend time.”
“If you are recovering from an injury or surgery, and if you want to get in shape, START DOING PILATES WITH JENNIFER at Naples Pilates, Fitness & Therapeutics. You will not regret it. You will leave your sessions feeling stronger, more confident, and more capable.My confidence was low after tearing ankle tendons and undergoing surgery to repair them. Experiencing an injury, managing pain, and losing mobility can be so demoralizing. After being in pain and being too limited to fully bear weight and move well, I thought exercising while lying down might be a good place to start. I liked how Jennifer's website described her approach, so I decided to work with her to start to put myself back together.Jennifer met me where I was, both mentally and physically. She had the perfect balance of pushing me to do more, while understanding what I was capable of doing. She is truly committed to helping her clients. One session she said to me, "I was thinking of you last night and I want you to try this new exercise today" When I asked her, "you were thinking of me?", she replied, "I am always thinking about my clients". And she meant it.That new exercise was SO HARD for me at first, because it really targeted my weakened ankle muscles - I was so impressed - it zeroed in on a very specific technique, the exact thing I needed to do to get stronger.I grew to trust Jennifer, and I learned so much from her. I will always be grateful to her for her help during my transition from injury to recovery. I am looking forward to working with her again when I return to Naples next winter, and I hope anyone who reads this post also decides to work with her.”
