TIRED OF THE SAME OLD  HIGH IMPACT EXERCIZES THAT ARE SO HARD ON YOUR JOINTS AND MAKE YOU HURT?? TRY PILATES !!  I AM SO GLAD I DID.  I HAVE HURT MY  KNEES DOING THE HIGH IMPACT AEROBICS AND STEP CLASSES.  I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE GOOD FOR MY BODY AND NOT HURT !   I HEARD ABOUT LAURA'S PILATES CLASS  AND  WHAT A GOOD INSTRUCTOR SHE WAS SO THOUGHT I WOULD TRY THIS WAS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR.  LAURA IS AN EXCELLENT INSTUCTOR  AND GUIDES YOU THROUGH THE MANY EXERCIZES.  SHE  IS THERE TO HELP YOU ALL THE WAY . I HAD NO IDEA HOW PILATES REALLY WORKED.   THERE IS NOT ROOM TO SAY EVERYTHING IT TEACHES BUT FOR EXAMPLE  YOU WILL LEARN  AND BECOME AWARE OF CORRECT BREATHING, COORDINATION, BALANCEM BODY CONTROL.........AND FOR ME, IT IMPROVED MY CONCENTRATION.  I SOMETIMES DON'T FEEL LIKE GOING TO CLASS....BUT I GO AND EVERY SINGLE TIME I COME OUT FEELING GREAT AND READY FOR THE DAY!    TRY IT AND SEE FOR YOURSELF! -BARBARA PAUL Looking for something different, I started to do Pilates with Laura over a year ago. Little did I know how much I would look forward to the class and the way it helped my overall well being. I always thought I was in pretty good shape, but my family and friends continue to comment on my new and improved "Pilate body". Laura is a fabulous instructor, challenging and motivating, attentive to each student and their potential.   -Anne Cummings "WOW, pilates is just what I have been looking for!!  I have done aerobics and have even had a personal trainer in the past but pilates is the best way to work out if you are looking for all over toning of your body.  It is amazing what you can do with just using your body for resistance.  I don't want a bulked up look, just definition and toning and that is what I have found with pilates.  Laura is an awesome instructor who explains how the moves should feel and what they are doing and she even reminds us to breathe!! I recommend her classes to everyone!"                                                                                                                           -Donna Bradley
