What a beautiful space! I would definitely recommend this studio as a gym space. The owner was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. I appreciate when instructors make the extra effort to circle and provide individual instruction alongside the group work.

The staff were very welcoming and that's what I look for in choosing a fitness space. You want to feel safe and comfortable in order to have a fulfilling experience. The space was beautiful and there are many class options so I would definitely go back!

Word that comes to mind is: WOW! I have taken Pilates and Barre but have never taken Arc Barrel and the way I felt during and after the class really went with their motto: Pilates and barre for every body! The instructor Suzy shows a real love and passion to challenge yourself but also learning new ways to stretch and engaged your body. Also, the analogies she would used to describe how to move your body was so helpful! I definitely will be back to take more classes!

As someone who has been working out at Orange Theory, this was a refreshing change of pace. Trying barre for the first time was an amazing experience, and the instructor was incredibly welcoming, making everyone feel at ease, no matter their fitness background. The atmosphere was so inviting--there was no pressure, just a supportive community.

The DYF teacher training program was the best program for me and one that I would recommend to anyone. The structure of the program allowed me to learn at a fast pace while never feeling overwhelmed. The staff was extremely encouraging, helpful, positive and truly cared about each individual student. The program focused on Joseph Pilates classical exercises and principals but encouraged me to teach with my own style and variations. The program gave me all the tools and confidence to be a successful Pilates instructor and I am so grateful!

Suzy’s eagerness to share her years of experience and knowledge was a motivating factor in my teacher training success. I’m grateful for her guidance and encouragement then and now. Pilates training was challenging and many times I questioned my choices. A chat with Suzy always boosted my confidence and commitment to the program. She’s a great teacher!

The NCPT teacher training program was an amazing experience. Having a full comprehensive approach gave me a deeper understanding of the practice of Pilates and gave me the confidence to be a well- rounded instructor for clients. The teachers were patient and worked with each individual to make sure to challenge us while allowing us to learn at our own pace.

I came to Defining You Pilates to finish my training in the classical, advanced exercises after being certified in the beginning and intermediate levels with another program. Suzy taught the exercises with such depth of knowledge and fun energy that I decided to start over from the beginning with her.

I am being very careful because of Covid. My sessions with Molly have been great. She is very mindful and careful, which I appreciate. We meet up early in the morning, we have the whole room to ourselves, I love the air filtration. I'm definitely wearing a mask at all times. All this helps me feel safe to continue. And, I am so happy to be getting back into doing Pilates again, after my surgery!!

—Mary Jo P.

Personalized instruction, beautiful space and the cleanest air in town!

The Defining You studio has a very calm, welcoming atmosphere. Vanessa,the personal trainer that I work with, is not only very knowledgeable about Pilates,but she is a wonderful communicator. I look forward to each session with her.

What do I like best? The positive culture at the studio, the high quality of the classes and the fantastic instructors. With each lesson it feels like the instructor is individualizing the class and exercises for each client. They know how and when to challenge us safely. The studio feels like a healing community. I go there for my mind as well as my body!

—Julie K.

Suzy is amazingly gifted, I've loved working with her for many years. And I adore the energy and spirit of Defining you! Reformer classes always challenge andbring centered calm for me, and the community of instructors and clients is warm and wonderful!

DYF has helped me rediscover joy in movement! All of the instructors are motivating and they know their stuff

—Clare H.

The virtual classes are easy to sign up for and Emma is absolutely the best instructor. She explains everything so well that I know I am doing it correctly even though I am not in studio. I appreciate the senior pricing. Thank you!
