My sister and I have been going to this awesome new Pilates studio called CORE MIND & BODY that we actually heard about through the loop. They just officially opened last weekend but we've been going for over a month. We've taken both mat and reformer classes and they are awesome. The classes are just the perfect amount of challenging. As a former athlete myself with various aches and pains, I feel they know exactly how to make you stronger without risking injury. The owners are former professional dancers and Michelle, who we've been taking lessons with, is phenomenal! And super nice too.

They have special pre- and post-natal Pilates classes which could be very useful to this group, as well as Mat, Reformer and Cadillac classes. They are running grand opening specials too.

Tell her I sent you. You'll love it.

While I was pregnant, I took mat classes with Michelle, and I found myself counting the minutes to our sessions! Although I was so happy to be pregnant, my body was changing so rapidly that it seemed like a new pain or sore muscle would emerge with each passing week. Michelle always asked the right questions and knew exactly how to support my changing needs. Her thorough knowledge and gentle ability to work with me during my pregnancy provided me with so much physical and mental comfort-I know that when my family is ready for a second baby, taking pre-natal Pilates classes will be one of my top priorities.

Once my son was born, I was ready to not only lose some of the baby weight, but also feel healthy and energetic. Michelle, Kyle, and Patrice have all encouraged me in this process with complete professionalism and caring. Even though I had been a regular client, we completed another intake to gain an understanding of and establish fresh goals for my "new� body. They all knew exactly what I needed to help my body recover properly from the delivery, and continue to support me as I work towards my goals.

Three years ago I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. I underwent a bi-lateral mastectomy, free tram flap reconstruction, 4 surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation and tamoxifen. After 10 months of active treatment, I was considered disease free. I was happy to be considered healthy, but the thing was I didn't feel healthy. I was fatigued, weak, and disconnected from my body physically and emotionally.

At this time, I started a Pilates program with Michelle Gaudette. The best thing I could have done. She helped me put my broken pieces back together. Highly trained in Dance, Anatomy, Movement, Pilates, Pink Ribbon Programs, and how the body works, Michelle created and guided me through a Pilates-inspired rehab regimen. I began to regain my strength, range of motion, as well as a more positive sense of self. She constantly challenged me in a good way. She gave me tools, both physical and mental, to move forward in my life. I am ever grateful, and highly recommend Core Mind + Body Pilates.
