Pilates with Jenise

I started private Pilates sessions with Jenise after bunion & hammer toe surgery. My recovery was very long and slow; I was unable to walk for three months. Jenise is amazing; she is so careful with every movement involving my foot. I have several old injuries to my left knee, and Jenise has worked on strengthening my knee. I’m experiencing stretches never felt before, and the work she has me doing on the reformer is wonderful. My balance and posture have improved tremendously and so has my tennis game. Thank you, Jenise!!!

Great classes, great teacher. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Cute and comfortable studio. Definitely recommend!

Jenise is a fabulous Pilates instructor! I love her voice and how sweet, funny and motivating she is all at the same time. As an instructor myself, I can tell that her cuing is great and that she definitely knows what she is doing. She is attentive to all the clients even in a class setting and always finds a way to make sure everyone is comfortable whether by adjusting their positions, tension or through cueing. Trying her equipment group class made feel invigorated and quite sore on my obliques (waist muscles) on the next day. The hour passes by quickly, and she gives you a great workout! I definitely recommend her!

I did private Pilates sessions with Jenise leading up to my wedding, and I recently tried her mat class for the first time. It was great! The class size was small enough that each of us got personal attention and plenty of helpful, supportive pointers. I left feeling relaxed and like I got a really solid workout.
Jenise is also great at identifying the tiny postural changes that make a huge difference to how you look and feel. I highly recommend working with her, either in mat classes or in one-​on-​one sessions!

Our 10 years old athlete enjoys playing basketball and softball and somehow she always manage to get injured at least once every season.
Since Jenise started working with our daughter and after just a few weeks of one to one Pilate class, we have seen a tremendous improvement, now she’s more coordinated than she never been before in her 10 years of life. Every week our daughter is looking forward to her Pilate class with Jenise .
Jenise has a fun way teaching kids and she knows how to keep them engaged and our daughter loves the Tunes Jenise plays while
They’re working out .
Thank you Jenise !!!

Thank you, Jenise, for my first ever Pilates class! You were friendly, patient, VERY knowledgeable, and an excellent teacher. Initially I was nervous to try a Pilates mat class because I was unsure of my strength, but Jenise provided me with a fun workout perfectly suited to my needs. We worked all kinds of little muscles that I’ve never focused on before, but was glad to hit… especially for my posture and back strength. I take yoga classes and always appreciate a teacher who knows their stuff. Aside from Jenise’s upbeat personality and witty commentary, she pinpointed each muscle group and explained how the exercise should feel. She made necessary adjustments and recommended variations. I am confident in her teaching and would definitely recommend her to others. She is passionate and a true pro. See you soon, Jenise!

I take several types of a pilates classes a week — mat, reformer, springboard — as well as barre classes, if those count. My mat class with Jenise is the one I look forward to the most. Jenise provides a challenging, varying class each week. The mat class is during my lunch break and I feel great for the rest of the day. My core feels so tight and I find myself more mindful of my posture. It’s much needed after spending so much time hunched over at my desk.
Aside from that, Jenise is just an enjoyable person to be around. She is funny and remembers a lot about what’s going on in your life. It’s almost like taking pilates with a girlfriend you’ve known for years. I’m so glad I started seeing her!

I’ve been taking Pilates with Jenise for about three months now and I can see a big difference in my posture. I notice that I correct my posture every now and then even when I’m taking other fitness classes based on the pointers that Jenise has given me.
Each class is around 2 – 4 people so you get personal attention. She’s knowledgeable but also very approachable. If you have any muscle or joint issues, make sure to tell her because she has tips on how to help. She makes class fun and engaging with her jokes. Lately, she’s been making sure to challenge us with each class (I swear it’s been getting tougher and tougher — in a good way). I also love her she sends a personal email to you prior to class to remind you and also to say hello. Overall she’s a great instructor and I’m glad to have gotten to know her in the past couple of months.

I have so much fun doing Pilates with Jenise. I love «playing» on the equipment-​or at least that is how she makes it feel! While she is very knowledgeable and professional and gives me a great workout, she also doesn’t make it feel like «work». I come out feeling stronger, taller, and more relaxed and in tune with my body-​wish I could come in everyday!

I had the best Pilates session with Jenise today! She is a very high-​quality instructor and I couldn’t believe how many aspects of my physical structure we addressed in less than an hour! She did an excellent assessment of my posture and alignment and the session addressed my issues perfectly, really taking into consideration my daily biking habit. Jenise has a great way of working with the client — I love her encouraging words and her cues. I’m a doctor specializing in physical medicine modalities and I would be very confident in recommending her to my patients, friends and family.

I always classified pilates with yoga, and assumed they were similar — only pilates uses machines… Well they are similar in some ways, but it was nothing like I have ever experienced! Very gentle and smooth movements, I thought it was challenging, but nothing overbearing on my body. I enjoyed the fact this type of exercise is used for physical therapy uses as well — helping my previous ankle injury was a huge benefit!
Jenise is very passionate about her practice, and helping her students get as much happiness and benefit out of pilates as she does! She was very aware of what I needed, and asked me questions to help guide me as we went. Great class, and I am looking forward to more in the future!

I have had a handful of instructors and many of them in Pilates. Being a dancer and a fitness professional myself it is important that I can continue bettering myself through education I can gain from others and also physically putting myself in the best shape possible. Working with Jenise has helped me achieve those things and more. Jenise is a phenomenal Pilates instructor. Not only does she help you reach your fitness goals but she is really passionate abut what she does and that’s a crucial component to choosing your fitness instructor because you want to be coached by someone who inspires you to be as motivated and passionate about your own body and lifestyle in general. My favorites are individual sessions with Jenise because she is very detail oriented and when she can focus on just me one on one rather than in a group setting, I really feel I am getting my money’s worth and the true value of doing Pilates.

Jenise is so fun to work with. I loved learning Pilates from her to strengthen my core and tone my body overall. Her energy, passion and enthusiasm for healthy living rubs off on you and she really cares about her clients.
I highly recommend Jenise for Pilates sessions. She can help with iShe will keep it interesting and most importantly, fun!

I’ve never done Pilates in my life so when Jenise presented an opportunity for me to train with her, I figured I would be a great way to ease into this form of exercise.
Right off the bat, Jenise made sure to cater to what my body needed to correct my posture and suggested different tools and stretches I can do on my own that would help target the muscle groups I needed to work on.
Jenise is a great one on one teacher, making sure I was comfortable with every position and stretch we did together. She is very passionate about Pilates and is a great motivator, pushing me to more for my body during our exercise routine. I can not say enough good things about her and the way she would change your life through Pilates.

Jenise is great to work with. I had a wonderful session with Jenise while my daughter was healing at CPMC (walking distance!). It was exactly what I needed. I’d definitely recommend her to friends and family!

Jenise has everything you’d want in a pilates instructor. She’s knowledgeable, committed to good form, always coming up with new routines to keep you engaged and challenged, focused on providing a personalized fitness regimen, timely, caring, encouraging, and last but not least, fun.
She is passionate about pilates and promotes a healthy lifestyle, but always in a positive, fun way. But, what I enjoy about her most is that she’s real and completely approachable, which makes it really easy to work with her.
I got great results working with Jenise.

I love teaching classes and working with my clients. I enjoy understanding muscle movement and ideal posture. I teach privately, downtown and at personal home gyms. Try it out with me, I think you’ll like it!
