Before I moved away from Kansas, I wanted to leave a heartfelt thank you to everyone at Club Pilates Lawrence.
I can’t recommend Club Pilates Lawrence enough. Every front desk staff member I met was warm, patient, kind, and genuinely caring. From the very beginning, they made me feel welcomed and supported.
I originally joined because I was looking for a safe way to recover after giving birth, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made for my postpartum recovery.
Both Maria and Nicole are exceptional instructors.
Nicole gave me my complimentary private introductory session, and I was so impressed by how patient and thorough she was. As someone who had never done Pilates before, I was nervous, but she carefully explained every movement, taught me the proper form, and answered every single question I had. She made me feel confident before I even joined the classes.
Maria’s classes are my absolute favorite. I have an anterior pelvic tilt, and her verbal cues are incredibly clear. Every class, she helps me find and maintain a neutral position through her instructions. Whenever someone has a question, she takes the time to explain it, demonstrates the movement herself, and makes sure everyone understands.
What impressed me the most about both Maria and Nicole is how much attention they give to every student. Even though these are small group classes, they consistently walk around the room, correct our form, explain the difference between correct and incorrect movement, and make sure everyone is performing each exercise safely and effectively. It honestly feels like receiving personal coaching within a group class.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control, I have to leave Kansas. Otherwise, I would absolutely continue taking classes here and would even sign up for regular private sessions.
I also want to sincerely thank the front desk team. When I explained that I had to move unexpectedly, they were incredibly understanding. Although my first membership was a three-month agreement, they kindly canceled my final month so I could finish taking classes while I was still in Kansas without worrying about paying for a membership after I had moved away. Their compassion and flexibility meant so much to me during a very stressful time.
If you’re a new mom recovering after childbirth, or if you struggle with back pain, poor posture, or core weakness, I truly encourage you to give Pilates a try. I even know people receiving pelvic floor physical therapy, and for me personally, Pilates has made an even bigger difference in improving my strength, posture, and body awareness.
Thank you, Club Pilates Lawrence, especially Maria, Nicole, and the wonderful front desk staff, for helping me regain confidence in my body. I’ll always be grateful for my time here.
