If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I have been doing the online Pilates Basics classes at Smartbody since July, and it's been a real saviour for me during these stressful times. When I started, I had doubts. I thought I would have had a lot of difficulties adjusting and motivating myself to do pilates at home because of covid. You know, I have never been much of a fitness person, so motivating myself to go for a walk or a jog is already an accomplishment. Sometimes I have experienced anxiety going to gyms or yoga studios. But now all I need is a mat and a laptop or smartphone with camera and I'm sorted out. As a matter of fact, it's so convenient that I have done pilates 5 times a week! This is something I would not have imagined doing before because of my busy schedule – commuting from office to the studio might not have worked every day. Also what I really like is that the instructors are able to see you with your camera on, and often give you feedback on your posture. As a beginner, I appreciate this very much. If you are struggling with shoulder/back pain especially now when you have to work from home, just give it a try. I have found so much relief with my back and shoulder problems that I don't think I could live without pilates anymore! The regular practice for just 2 months has already significantly reduced the chronic shoulder pain I have experienced for years. Many of the exercises my physiotherapist advised me to do are also found in the pilates moves repertoire. Thank you Smartbody for offering these online classes! It means so much to me.

I started at Smartbody with an into course around 2 years ago and since then pilates has become an integral part of my life. I appreciate the professionalism of the teachers, strong focus on technique and high attention to detail. I can say Smartbody really helped me to introduce more sports into my live and experience the joy of movement. Thank you!

A very personal and well equipped Pilates studio with amazing teachers. All the classes are great and if you want to improve your strength, form, and posture, you have to come here. The instructors give you a lot of attention and push you to keep improving. I have been practicing pilates for over 4 years and out of all the studios I have been to, Smartbody has been my favourite!!!

I have been taking private Pilates lessons in August 2017. I was looking for reducing my back pain and a better posture. After couple of sessions I already notice big difference! My teacher is very dedicated and professional. Private lessons are beneficial for focusing on your weak sides. Smartbody is also perfect on location wise and provides a relaxing environment. Overall I totally recommend Smartbody.
