Ive taken several classes at this studio and have had a great experience every time. The teachers are friendly, knowledgeable, and truly care about the wellbeing of their students. There is a homey, welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere and a sense that Joys staff is deeply invested in making sure students have a great experience. I leave every class feeling positive, happy and full of energy! I would highly recommend this studio to everyone - men and women of all fitness levels.

Ive been attending classes at Joy of Pilates for over a year now, and I am amazed at how strong Ive become! Im a downhill skier and this past winter I skied for three hours on my first ski day of the season before my thighs even started complaining! Usually on the first day of skiing my thighs are screaming after the first run! I attend reformer classes twice a week and occasionally take mat and TRX classes. Sometimes I also take Zoom classes. I love the in-studio classes the best! I love the reformer! I love all the instructors! I think of it as Kindergym because we use so many fun props (toys!) and the classes go by so quickly. Im 63 years old and I can honestly say I am stronger now that I have ever been in my life! My balance has improved and I feel like Joy of Pilates just makes my life more beautiful. The owner Ella is a gem, and she knows how to attract and keep quality teachers!

Great staff, super friendly and accommodating owner. They really know Pilates and how to work with all kinds of people. Pretty collaborative space and great for first timers getting into fitness. Id highly recommend their services to almost anyone. They are a boost to the fitness community in town.

I love this studio!! The teachers are top-notch and the owner, Ella, is a really nice person. I didn’t know what Pilates was when I started last year- a friend gifted me a class. There are classes at all different levels and I felt really cared for when I started and didn’t know how to do anything. The teachers and Ella were so kind and supportive. I’ve seen big changes in my body-I’m firmer all over and stronger. I can lift a 40# bag of birdseed like it’s nothing. And I was delightfully surprised when I wore high heels to dinner ( before COVID) and it was easy to walk in them because my ankles are so freakin’ strong! The best part has been that my first day of downhill skiing was easy because my thighs and my core were already so strong from Pilates. If you want results and you don’t want to suffer to get them, sign up at Joy of Pilates!

I have found my happy place!Im a recent convert from a traditional gym, where I was always bored and never looked forward to figuring out what my workout was going to to consist of. At Joy of Pilates, I sign up for the classes that fit my schedule (in person or virtual, theres something for EVERY schedule) and then I just show up and let the teacher lead me through a full body workout.The teachers are all very qualified and helpful, they always give alternatives for the things that are still too hard for me, and Im sure the people who have been going there a long time appreciate that there is a level of difficulty available, even though classes are open to beginners.The owner, Ella, is WONDERFUL! She really cares deeply for her little world of employees and clients and calls us all by name and takes the time to be a friend.They have done a great job of pivoting their business model since Covid hit, investing in tech equipment to enable them to do live virtual classes on Zoon and Facebook, and the facebook live classes can be accessed any time for those of us with wonky schedules! Their in-person classes are held in their large gym space with a max of five people per class, wearing masks and with fans on and garage door open. Equipment is sanitized after each use.I have never done a review for a gym before, but this place inspires me! if you are looking for a new place to call your fitness home, look no further! Let Joy of Pilates be YOUR happy place, too!

Fabulous studio! The staff is very warm, kind and knowledgeable. I was new to Pilates when I joined about 6 months ago, and I felt very supported and comfortable right from the start! The studio itself is beautiful and inviting. I also love how they support and partner with other local businesses, artists and community activities. Highly recommend!! 😊

I have been a member for over a year at this studio. I attended classes at the other Joy studios as well. If there is anything I want to say its that each instructor is attentive to the needs of each class participant. They make the classes fun and intimate. They are diligent in ensuring that each class member is afforded the best possible experience. Joy of Pilates is absolutely the best!!!

This is a great studio. The staff are great to work with and strive to help you reach your goals. If your even a little interested in a fitness program and dont want to get a gym membership, try Pilates. Its even good to add to your daily fitness routine. They have a free intro class usually. I highly recommend.

Not only are the classes challenging and rewarding, but the instructors are so kind and caring. Such a wonderful atmosphere at Joy! My favorite class is Arms, Abs, & Assets- you feel the burn the following couple of days after the class. I love taking their classes with others in the community!

I write this review immediately after another wonderful class at Joy. I am so glad I decided to start taking classes here. I have always been self conscious of my athletic ability, so I have often felt out of place in public exercise situations. I instantly felt like I fit in at Joy. I have been regularly attending classes for several months now and I feel fantastic. I am getting stronger and progressing in class difficulty levels. The instructors are all awesome! The studio is clean, airy, and well equipped. I highly recommend Joy of Pilates to everyone!

Ive been coming here for over 4 months now and I cant say enough good things about my experience! They are friendly, knowledgable, supportive and encouraging. EVERY class seems different and they really focus on correct form and class members individual needs. I feel great! Although the instructors are all different, they ALL have a considerable knowledge base and are super helpful with suggesting alternatives if you have an injury or limitation. They have classes when I want them (including weekends) and Im always excited to go. Added bonus, the studio is immaculate. Thank you Ella and your spectacular team!
