Bodytrio

As good as it gets.
The first yoga and pilates studio where I have felt like the instructors actually see me, try to get to know me and appreciate how my individual body succeeds and struggles. I have taken a range of classes with different instructors. Each one appears to have been handpicked by Donna and shares in her passion to improve people’s health and fitness.
Donna is the first instructor who has taken the time to understand the human body and refuses to just throw you into the amateur movements I have encountered at so many larger studios that have been proven to be detrimental to your body.
Its on you to find the class that suits your capabilities. Do you want to leave feeling stretched and relaxed? or do you want to feel the burn in your abs? The choice is yours, but you will leave feeling happy and renewed either way.
Keep up the good work Bodytrio!

My overall experience here would be more accurately described by 2 stars — «Meh. I’ve experienced better.» But that would be taking into account how much time it took for me to get there and get back based on the bus schedule (nearly 3 hours out of my day). So, it’s really okay if you live close enough to walk or if you have other modes of transportation.
I came here using a Living Social deal. I bought the voucher thinking I would be able to attend up to 5 classes a week based on their online schedule since the fine print only said it wasn’t good for barre classes — turns out it’s only good for yoga, which is only scheduled 4 days a week, with only 2 of those classes being at times that I could attend if I commit 3 hours of my day to it. But to be fair, the title of the deal did contain «yoga.» Apparently it was a common misconception according to the staff, so hopefully they include all the other exclusions next time they post a deal.
The studio itself was very cozy. It comfortably fits 9 students (3 rows of 3), but could possibly squeeze in 12. Decorations were elegantly simple. If you forget or don’t want to bring your own mat, they have mats you can use for no charge. Because of the aforementioned mishap, I was only able to take classes with Louise, who was wonderful. However, there were a lot of beginners (myself included), so the first 3 sessions were very light — to the point where I wouldn’t even count it as physical activity. The pace picked up during the 4^th session though, and it was great! Unfortunately, that was the last session I was able to attend between being out of town and all the cancelled classes due to the holidays.

With multiple issues over the last 5 years I was getting discouraged until I found out about Body Trio. I had been to many (12) physical therapists and no one could identify my issues and bring me to the level I have realized with Donna. She’s incredibly in tune with body function and motion and begins with listening to you. It’s a collaborative effort. Anyone who goes to her will be impressed with her techniques and the results. Truly.
It’s been more than a class. It’s been a life change!

I can’t believe no one Unilocaled about Bodytrio before me. Anyway, I learned about Bodytrio when I purchased a month of unlimited yoga via Living Social for $ 25, which is simply the best deal ever.
Their web site is very user friendly and pretty. I signed up for a bunch of classes and went to the first one tonight. The class was held by Louise, who is the perfect yoga teacher: soft spoken, understanding, good sense of humor. It was a very good class, I felt like a brand new person when I left.
The studio is on the small side. There were ten of us working out and I had to watch out not to be kicked by the girl in front of me. At the same time, the studio is clean and they have plenty of supplies to make it easy for you to work out.
Unfortunately I cannot afford to go to this studio 2 – 3 times a week once my Living Social voucher ends, but I’m pretty sure I’ll treat myself to a yoga class here and there.

Bodytrio is literally the best experience I’ve ever had with exercise. I am not a hardcore gym rat but I’ve done pilates and yoga before and even some personal training. Donna blows it all out of the water. I don’t think I really appreciated how incredible she was until I moved to Philadelphia for school. I’ve taken exercise classes at 3 different studios but nothing compares to bodytrio. I’ve been trying to convince Donna to move to Philly :) I guess I’ll just have to settle for my bodytrio fix when I come home to Belmont. I’m going to class tomorrow and I can’t wait!

Bodytrio was really my first experience with Pilates. They also offer yoga, barre and other group classes. The studio space is bright and inviting. I have taken classes with most of the teachers there and they are all very qualified and make excercising fun. Some of my personal favorites are the Pelvi-​Core and Total Body classes; I love utilizing the weights, balls and bands for a great cardio workout. Donna is always adding new classes to keep things fresh which makes it even more appealing. I’m so glad I have found a place where I feel comfortable working out among friends.
