Project Pilates

This review is only for a prenatal Pilates class I took. Shauna was the instructor and the whole time while she was teaching she’ve been wearing boots. I mean outside knee high boots.
The class started abruptly and ended the same way.
Nothing was said about breathing, I haven’t heard a word of explanation about exercises we were doing or muscles we were working on. As well as what benefits pregnant women can get from those exercises.
The studio itself is pretty nice though. I just wish they had a better prenatal pilates instructor there.
so happy we have Michelle Timek in the area for a prenatal yoga at least.

All of the instructors are attentive, knowledgeable and helpful. I think the classes are more geared towards beginners, even those labeled as intermediate.

Morgan and Thuc are both excellent and extremely knowledgeable instructors.
Highly recommended!

a livingsocial deal introduced me to this amazing pilates studio and to reformer and tower. sadly, i can’t afford their regularly-​priced packages for reformer classes (still a broke grad student at the moment), but loved, loved the five pilates reformer and five tower classes I took courtesy of livingsocial. i saw a huge improvement in my core/​overall body tone after taking just one or two reformer classes vs. taking just regular mat pilates classes (plus my abs would hurt for days after!). the use of an apparatus and a semi-​private atmosphere (no more than three-​four students at a time) really helps ensure that you are doing the exercises correctly and not in a half-​assed way (which i admit i tend to do in mat classes). i usually had morgan as my teacher for the reformer classes, who was really patient at explaining how to use the reformer and provided good assists/​adjustments. the studio is also gorgeous with tons of light. i usually came there dressed, but HHF’s locker room is nice and spacious with showers if you need to change/​get ready.
i was excited to see that Project Pilates offered another livingsocial deal recently and I purchased it without hesitation. maybe if i ever move beyond my current paycheck-​to-​paycheck/​broke grad student status, I will spring for a regularly-​priced class package.

So as pilates and yoga studies go, this is a great deal. As mentioned in my review of Hamilton Health and Fitness (
), PP is found inside HHF. So, when purchasing a class at PP you also get use of all HHF classes, pool, locker rooms and steam room. What a great deal and why I give PP a 5 star review.
The classes range from a mat class, to tower, to reformer classes. All the teachers I have had (only 3) have been extremely knowledgeable and did a great job teaching. The tower and reformer classes are amazing. The machines really make it a little more challenging. I do have to say that these classes are 1 hour and when you are doing the reformer it is a little annoying to constantly take away and add bands so I feel that the class «lesson» could be crafted a little bit better to minimize the process.
Overall a great venue to get your workout on. I have scooped up 2 Living Social Deals for PP that have been amazing. So, be on the lookout for maybe another one in 6 months.

I bought a great deal from livingsocial for a package of pilates reformer and tower classes. The teachers here are great. I love coming to the studio. They are very helpful and the classes are enjoyable.

I’ve been going to Project Pilates almost since they opened, and I have seen them transform from a medium-​sized studio to a large studio within a huge health & fitness center.
This place is great. The teachers are ALL extremely knowledgeable about the body, many of them trained at the Kane School in Manhattan. Most importantly, it’s a great workout at an affordable cost. They offer reasonable packages for both mat and equipment classes, and the class schedule has a lot of variety, including spinning and other cardio classes, especially since moving into the fitness center.
VERY highly recommended.
