Serenity Yoga & Pilates Studio, LLC 610 Eastbury Drive, Iowa City, IA 52245

"I started Serenity in January 2023. Before starting Serenity, I was attending barre classes in the QC area. The difference in my Serenity workouts is that I'm actually seeing results, both in improvements in my core strength, and body shape. To say that I'm shocked would be an understatement! I am currently attending about three classes a week -- a mix of reformer and barre. Taking the first step of starting any exercise routine is the hardest. If you're looking to begin an exercise regime, give Serenity a call - what do you have to lose!"

"Marcie and her staff are total gems in our community. She has helped me heal and recover my strength from two pregnancies in addition to taking care of many clients I have sent her way. Their knowledge of how the body works is way beyond any other place in town and their commitment to over all health is excellent. Wether you are looking to improve your fitness level, train for something specific or healing an injury this is the the place!!"

"I love going to Serenity. I have been a regular client for 4 years. Marcie's expertise in injury and exercise has been the best solution for me. Before Serenity I had a reoccurring pattern of exercising and getting hurt then being off exercise to recover only to start the cycle again. Marcie understands the human body but more importantly she understands MY human body. She can individualize my workouts based on how I feel each session and she has accurately described my needs to all the staff. I am reassured everyone in the studio is aware of my body's needs. I also do classes at the studio. Mat pilates with Mary has proved to be very effective for core strength. Gentle yoga with John is a very calm wind down from a busy day and a great "date night" activity for couples. I recommend this studio to all of my friends that want to avoid unnecessary injuries, develop strength. In addition to workouts that strengthen and protect each client there is a sense of community and belonging every time I enter the studio."

"My main goal when starting with Serenity Yoga and Pilates studio was to gain strength in my quadriceps and hamstrings as I consider knee replacement. The Serenity staff helped me to reach this goal by teaching me proper technique in the Pilates reformer class and yoga. The biggest tangible change I have noticed since beginning the program has been less knee pain and improvements in my flexibility. I would describe Marcie’s instruction as thorough, knowledgeable of my injury; resulting in the proper way to modify exercises when needed and FUN at an early morning hour! I would recommend this Pilates and Yoga studio to everyone of all age groups. Thanks for helping fall in love with the Pilates reformer classes! Patt"

"I've worked out at Serenity for almost seven years needing to rehab a problem hip and have worked with both Marcie and Mary. They are not only very professional and accomplished, they know more about anatomy, physiology and how the body moves, than many physical therapists or chiropractics I have seen over the years. In addition to developing peoples' core strength, the workouts can be tailored to suit specific ailments no matter what your age or condition. I've found this place to be a blessing and give it the highest recommendations."
