Bodies & Plants

"I highly recommend Bodies & Plants for pilates and other movement classes. Andrea has created a beautiful and welcoming space centered around movement, growth, and self-care. Through regular springboard classes, I have toned my physique and built core strength and stamina that support the physical demands of my days. Every class seems to strip away the tension and stiffness from the week and leaves me feeling open, strong, and limber. The studio has been a true refuge for self-care and community building during these hard years of the pandemic."

"I started working with Andrea in the early days of COVID, when she was offering outdoor classes on her private pilates deck. Desperately in need of some exercise and stress relief, and inspired by her calm and creative instruction, it took very little time for me to inquire about private sessions, and I’m so glad I did. Every session with Andrea is unique, imaginative, and fun. She takes the time to understand my needs and preferences, and her warmth and sense of humor carry me through even the most challenging exercises. Thank you, Andrea!!!"

"When I first came to Andrea, I'd been having pretty consistent back pain from sitting in front of a computer all day and really wanted to do something about it. It had been years since I'd practiced pilates, but on the recommendation of a friend, I decided to give it another shot. From my first meeting with Andrea, her confidence and reassurance that she could help me, changed my entire outlook. Within a few private sessions, my back pain improved and within a couple of months, it had gone away completely. Something I am grateful for every day."

"I did pilates casually for a couple years before doing it on a regular basis with Andrea and she has made me fall in love with it! I do a mix of in person privates, virtual privates and group classes at Bodies and Plants. Andrea does an incredible job of making each session feel approachable and challenging at the same time... while also correcting any imbalance that I'm feeling in my body that week. Now that I'm a few years in, I'm constantly surprised at what my body can do... it is honestly shocking the strength and muscle tone I've built working with her. Andrea is such an attentive teacher—I feel like she really knows my body... and because of this, I get so much out of every session with her. I always leave a session with Andrea feeling satisfied, strong and rebalanced."

"There's not enough space here for me to share how much I love everything Andrea offers at Bodies and Plants! I'm so happy this is on Main Street in the Manor! I've taken almost every class offered and they're all wonderful. I love that I can book group classes online- my favorite is Springboard. And if you treat yourself to private sessions, you won't be sorry. I've had back issues in the past and regular classes with Andrea have made me stronger and less prone to injury. The facilities are top notch and BEAUTIFUL. It's so nice working out among the plants! And all the teachers here are wonderful and offer their own style of teaching."
