"The work that I have done with Laina has improved my life on many levels, strengthing my core through her integrative program has improved my posture, and helped to lessen my chronic back pain. The work we have done in movement therapy has completely changed the way I stand, walk, and move in general, which has helped lesson my knee and hip pain, and improved the quality of my life, and the activities I love. In addition, Laina has helped me with a holistic approach to my heath and well being assisting me in my pursuit of a gluten free diet."

"I can't talk enough about your personalized/customized one-on-one pilates sessions with me. I skied for the first time this year today, and my body felt like I'd been skiing all season. It's great to have everything work so well on day one!"
Valerie Wolfe
"Fitness and health have always been a priority in my life, and being an athlete, I have sustained a few sports related injuries along my 54 years. Laina started my program with a full, overall assessment of my total body mechanics, not just my specific injury, and for the last three years has combined her knowledge of body structure, analysis, and my specific issues. She has designed a fluid program for me that has lessened my back pain substantially. Laina makes the work fun. She is upbeat, sincere, empathetic and knowledgeable. I totally trust her in both her assessments and her guidance. If you do the work, you will get better! I plan on keeping Laina a part of my lifelong commitment to health."

"Four months ago, I turned 40 and gave birth to twins. I was unable to do any exercise after the first trimester, and had become quite deconditioned. As a Pediatrician, I was pleased to discover that Laina has excellent fund of medical knowledge around the physiology and pathology of pregnancy and the postpartum period. I anticipated my weekly session with Laina as she is fun to work with and always able to motivate me to new levels of fitness. She combines Pilates, physical therapy and strength conditioning techniques in a way that best meets my unique requirements. When I met Laina, I felt like my body was falling apart. Now, thanks to her, I am back enjoying all of my usual activities and have the energy and strength necessary to care for my babies, return to work and live life to the fullest."
