May’s classes completely changed how I feel in my body.

I recently moved to Atlanta from out-of-state. Being new to the area I was worried that I might have a difficult time finding a new Pilates studio. During my search I stumbled across Pilates by May and I decided to give her a call. I am so happy I did because May is amazing! She is not just a Pilates instructor going through the same flow day in day out, she’s an educated teacher. In 5 months I’ve learned more about classical Pilates than I did when I started practicing Pilates 5 years ago. May is very compassionate, she never pushes me beyond my limits and always makes me feel confident when trying new things. To top it all off she’s become one of my friends and I am so lucky to have her in my life.

May’s classes completely changed how I feel in my body.

I have been searching for a good Pilates studio that’s not overly commercial and true to classical for the past 11 years since moving to Atlanta. I’ve finally found it. I’ve been doing Pilates twice a week since January with May and she is fantastic. Her knowledge of Pilates is extensive and she has a very good understanding of the body. I believe this combination helps her to be an effective teacher and she’shelped me to progress back to intermediate level quite quickly, and to start thinking of moving to Advanced. Her home studio is fantastic – clean and with the full array of Pilates equipment. I also appreciate her flexibility to accommodate my schedule since I work and cannot do Pilates in the middle of the day. She also has a good sense of humor, which keeps sessions light and fun and distracts from the pain your abs might be feeling. I’m truly glad I found her and am just sad

I have been seeing May for several weeks, twice a week, and I’m very impressed by her level of knowledge in anatomy and function of the body. She pays close attention to the correct execution of each exercise and applies necessary corrections. Her studio is fully equipped with high quality reformer, cadillac, chair and other apparatus. May is a kind and fun person to be around, and I’m glad I’ve chosen her to learn pilates the right way.

I’ve been working with May for several months now. She is an expert at leading me through the progression of moves, allowing me to advance further than I’ve been able to in classes previously. Her studio space is well equipped, comfortable and her instruction is always enjoyable! I’m so lucky to have found her!
