The PILATES Room & ANTIGRAVITY Studio

Today was my first class ever of Reformer Pilates with Tori and I absolutely loved the experience. Not only Tori was super kind and patient with me, but also loved how well she explained the exercises and corrected my posture (considering I'm international and English is not my first language). Will definitely go back!!!

Flight Fundamentals with Tori was such a fun class! The instructor was very kind, patient, and helpful— the small class size really allowed us to get in-depth instruction and personalized attention. With the good directions and demonstrations, I never felt like anything was too hard. I loved my experience and definitely want to come back.

I’m enrolled in the two week trial offer. Today I took the Pilates class with Jen which was wonderful. Feels so good to be back doing Pilates after a couple of months of being away. I love the space and intimate setting. The Barre class was great too. Looking forward to more of the same this week, along with TRX. The location is convenient and the new coffee/cafe is lovely. I give the Pilates Room and Anti Gravity Studio  an A+!

I went to the antigravity yoga class for the first time and had a blast! Tori is a great teacher and I appreciated how much she ensured that the class was challenging but safe for the people who were starting their journey with antigravity. Can’t wait to try other classes in the studio!

What an amazing space, awesome staff and bodyworkers like Sarah Costonis- the hidden gems of the region! Join up as soon as you can, you won't regret it :-)

Just finished my first virtual class Jana Via the Pilates Room.  Whew- satisfying challenge!  The video quality and demo of the exercises were very clear and easy to follow - especially with not being in person.  Definitely plan to take advantage of super convenient virtual options through the Pilates Room

I just had a personal visit with Chimêne and it was eye opening.  I didn't realize how much my neurological imbalances status post stroke went right down to my core.  Like a good physical therapist, she focuses on stability before mobility and therefore we are starting at the core and working our way out.  Thank you to the Pilates studio for providing this service of neurokinetic therapy to our community.  I hope to learn a lot more in my future visits.

Loved the stretch class with Tori. It was especially good having done her Barre class before hand as I find it much easier to go into a deeper stretch when my muscles are warmed up. This was much much more than that an ordinary stretch class. She explained in detail where the facshia surrounded & influenced each of the muscle groups we were stretching and taught us how to access it...all the while maintaining alignment. Even though we were holding the stretches for a longer time, it felt amazing. I would have to say it’s the best Pilates stretch class I’ve ever experienced.

Thank you to all who make the Pilates Room & Antigravity studio possible.  There are a lot of reasons why it is a great resource center for all around fun, health, and super good vibes.  So far I have only gone to the Fascial Refresh class with Chimene but I have plans to try the Floating meditation class, the Tai chi class, yoga class and bungee class (probably lots more too).  

The Fascial Refresh is like getting a re-introduction to your body's inner structure and world by a seasoned and loving guide (aka Chimene) -- it's an exploration of how we feel, how our body works, with so much care and compassion rolled into it. You will be guided as to how to maximally receive the benefits of each movement from the smallest joint in your foot to your overall musculo-skeletal-energetic structures.

And it's fun.  The location is wonderful, on the edge of Fall Creek, close to Ithaca Falls, a restaurant, with easy access by foot, bike or car. There is so much offered at the center that I won't try to express it all (their website does that) but I'm definitely glad I have finally made it over there and plan to spend a lot of time exploring and increasing my health under the care of all the wonderful instructors there.  

Plus, fresh water, great teas, and so much more......you'll be glad you checked it out once you do!

I went to the Fascial Refresh class, and I am 100% convinced that anyone who has an iota of stress in their life should make this class a priority. It helped me be more aware of my breathing, how my body was at rest, and then after the class, to bring you back to those 2 things and becoming aware of how the different stretches and exercises, made a difference. I have never been to a class where I could notice the difference immediately before.  The teacher was open and joyful. She explained things without judgment if you got it wrong. The atmosphere was one of fun. We were making jokes with people we had never met before.  The gym was clean and organized. Plus it smelled wonderful! Not like a gym at all!! Signed up for the recurring class, and now I can't wait to try the Bungee and Ariel classes too
