“I am a BASI certified and classically trained Pilates Instructor and have been practicing for 8 years. I have been coming to Pilates aligned for almost one year. After taking sessions for a few months I decided to enroll in the “Core Program” at Pilates Aligned. After only 2 months into the program, I have gained a much deeper perspective in the Pilates Method as both a instructor and a practitioner. Unlike other studios where a session is merely just going through the exercises, at Pilates Aligned, each session is a great learning experience and truly complete mind-body connection. Whether you are new to the Pilates Method or an instructor seeking to enhance your knowledge, the Pilates Aligned Staff offers phenomenal instruction! It is a friendly atmosphere and the staff is always responsive to one’s needs.”

Pilates Aligned is a truly wonderful studio! All the teachers are well-trained professionals and each class emphasizes the classical exercises. That said, each teacher brings a unique perspective and focus. I have been taking classes here regularly for more years than I can remember. Last year I had my first baby and Shannon’s pre-natal class helped keep me feeling great the whole 9 months! I highly recommend this studio to Pilates students of any age and experience level.

Pilates Aligned has everything I’m looking for in a Pilates studio. The teachers are experienced, well-trained, sensitive, and observant. The class sizes are small, so you get personal attention, which makes all the difference! I got to Pilates Aligned three times a week, and I always feel strong and refreshed after each class.

I live in Manhattan Beach CA and I have traveled to Pilates Aligned to get my pilates “fix”. As a pilates instructor myself (10yrs) I can tell you Cara Reeser’s knowledge is unsurpassed! Her honesty, humility and experience can not be found in many teachers. Actually, I have never met anyone of her caliber and I have met many Pilates instructors! You are blessed if you live in the Denver area to have Pilates Aligned as a home, I only wish she would move to California!!

During the two years that I have taken part in the Pilates Aligned teacher seminars, my understanding of Pilates has deepened, changing my teaching profoundly. The seminars are like taking Master’s level Pilates classes where Master Teacher Cara Reeser offers us a chance to problem solve, analyze and even challenge what we think we know about the Pilates method in a safe learning environment with other Pilates professionals. I highly recommend this experience to all teachers!

I am wildly grateful for Pilates. When I arrived at Pilates Aligned Inc. I was a mess. I have fibromyalgia, neck and back problems and bad knees. After about a month, I began to notice some pretty amazing changes in my body and, strangely, my mind and attitude. I’ve had such an enjoyable time learning and mastering everything we’ve tried. I’m stronger, more flexible and the pain load is way down. Plus my stamina and energy level are way up. I was 65 on my last birthday but now I’m not worried about getting old because Cara and I are kicking butt and having fun. If I can do it, so can you!
