Pilates

I attended the Pilates class on Thursday September 4th at 3pm. This was my first experience with Pilates so I did not know what to expect, but was greatly pleased with the class. The teacher was great, she was upbeat and explained everything thoroughly. She even took time after the class to explain to me what Pilates is all about and its benefits since she noticed I had not been there before. Overall I was very impressed with the class and will definitely make it a point in the future to attend Pilates on a regular bases.
