Ideal Form Pilates

Christie is very thoughtful and attentive, always try to help with what u need. The place is cute and warm with great background music. My friend recommended Christie to me, and I would recommend her to you all.

I have worked with Chrissy for +3 years now. I originally came across Chrissy when I attended a mat pilates class she taught at the gym I attend. After getting to know her and speaking about how we could tailor a more personal experience through private sessions, I decided to take the plunge and haven’t looked back! Yes, it can get pricey but I feel you get your money’s worth with Chrissy. She is a wonderful instructor and every session gets tailored based on how you are feeling: sometimes there are beads of sweat on my brow and I feel the burn and other times we focus on breathing and flexibility. As an avid exerciser, I find pilates to be an excellent complement to my strength training routine and has helped with flexibility, agility, and injury recovery. Not to mention the fact that Chrissy is just a fantastic person and has such a calming presence about her. I have recommended Chrissy to a number of friends and colleagues and have used her for semi-​private sessions in addition to private. I highly recommend you check out Ideal Form Pilates!

I’ve been working with Chrissy from Ideal Form Pilates for over a year now. I lucked out by finding Ideal Form. Chrissy’s careful approach has been really helpful for me. She listens to what I want to work on, and is able to customize each session based on my concerns and aspirations. Almost as important for me, Chrissy has become a friend. I enjoy going to pilates with her because, though it is hard work, there is good conversation and good results. Most importantly, the results speak for themselves. I feel stronger and look better than I have in awhile. I am often complimented and have had friends who began working with Chrissy because of my results.
Chrissy is also working with my sister-​in-​law currently who is 7 months pregnant. She is really happy with their sessions. She feels that Chrissy’s knowledge of the prenatal body has made her experience really different from any she’s tried. As a soon-​to-​be-​auntie, I am happy to have my little nephew and sister-​in-​law in Chrissy’s delicate care.
I would recommend her to anybody interested in pilates. Her specified approach will allow anybody (given any strengths, weaknesses, and level of experience) experience pilates and better their body.

Been taking private lessons at Ideal Form for a few months. I am a performer in New York and have several old injuries that sometimes affect my mobility, so I am always a little hesitant in trying out new classes or teachers. Chrissy is an incredible Pilates instructor. Besides being well versed in reformer, mat and yoga, she’s an intuitive and comprehensive trainer and healer. I’ve never once felt pressured or concerned for my injuries during a session, and I noticed major changes within a few weeks. She is able to customize sessions for where you are at both physically and mentally from session to session, always with an edge or challenge to keep improving body and technique. The studio itself is an inviting and open space — with a positive vibe and classy amenities throughout. I usually schedule for the evenings, which often means I have the place to myself. I highly recommend — definitely the best individual session work I’ve found in the city!
