On a whim, I walked into Fit From The Core. I met Lorraine and told her I wanted to get back into shaoe. We decided upon two sessions a week, and she suggested that I do both strength and conditioning as well as Pilates. Within eight weeks, I was down one dress size and am very close to going down one more. Annie and Barbara, my incredible trainers, know my limitations and are great about getting the most out of our workouts. Not only have I lost weight and built muscle, my long-standing back issues have begun to fade away. I've even started training for a half marathon! I couldn't be happier with the results and am so glad I found you.

When I retired in December 2004, one of my primary goals was to get in better shape. Big gyms with large numbers of members were intimidating, but I knew I needed personal training to jump start an exercise routine. The Core had recently opened in our neighborhood; the size of the building was appealing, and Lorraine - the owner/ manager - warmly welcomed us when we first went in. Very quickly I had a wonderful personal trainer, and my partner, Lynda, and I began weekly Pilates training with an exceptional instructor. Both instructors understood where I was starting from and, with humor and persistence encouraged me. Within several months, Lynda also began personal training at The Core with another excellent trainer. Three years later, I have two personal strength training sessions each week and one pilates session; my current personal trainer, Frederick, has a tremendously positive personality and continues to encourage me to improve. We just began working with our current Pilates instructor, Leslie, and she is very well matched with us.
Several aspects of The Core are special. Over time, people and schedules change, but Lorraine is very skilled in matching clients to trainers. Her knowledge and understanding of what works for each client is very much appreciated. A second aspect that we appreciate is schedule flexibility. I returned to work in January 2006 and needed some schedule flexibility, which The Core and our trainers have always provided. We continue to enjoy the size of The Core: we have top instructors and great equipment in a smaller, more personal setting. The Core works for us, and we’re delighted clients.
