“Jan is the perfect pilates teacher. She is understanding of the human body, gentle when she has to be but demanding in a good way. Before & after my knee replacement she researched everything she needed to & the result was great. It showed she really cares for her clients”

—Maurice T.

“I always feel so much better at the end of a Pilates session with Jan than when I start.  One of her super powers is to look at me and see what’s out of alignment, whether at a Pilates studio or over a remote video session.  While I am sure there are plenty of Pilates instructors who are good at their jobs, I am equally sure Jan has no equal with her other super power of being such a good listener.  Jan’s ability to listen to what has been going on and adjust every workout to respond to what my body needs is truly extraordinary.  Between sessions Jan will also send new exercises or videos to help keep me moving and healthy.  She cares about each client as an individual, and every Pilates session is crafted for each person.   She’s a mainstay in my life to keep me healthy and happy, and I feel lucky to be able to work with her.”
