Great early morning workout 12/3/2009

I regularly lift weights and do cardio training but the treat of this very personal pilates studio when I am in NY adds something really special to my routine. I recommend Bent Pilates highly either as a regular part of your exercise schedule or as a break from your regular routine. Pros: Great personal hands on 'training' more

Love the energy in this studio! 11/18/2009

I have been doing Pilates for about 7 years and I'm very happy I found Kim and Bent Pilates. Sometimes Pilates is a great workout but grim and serious, other times it's a great workout and lots of fun, energizing and inspiring! Kim and her team make it fun and energizing every time, which I greatly appreciate after a long day behind a desk or long flights on a plane. Plus my back never hurts any more since I became a Pilates regular. Highly recommended! Pros: wipes out the cobwebs in my brain after a long workday more

Great Studio- Especially Group Classes 11/8/2009

I work near this studio and walked by it for months before trying it out. So glad I did- it changed my physical and mental health for the better! In just a few sessions I noticed improved posture, less aches, increased flexibility and better muscle tone. I have some medical impediments from previous fractures and the instructors have been incredible about working around my limitations and giving me a great workout. I especially love the group classes and have enjoyed individual sessions with the owner, Kim. I highly recommend going - it is intimate, personal, clean and reasonably priced for great instructors. Pros: reasonable and effective small group classes more

Best Pilates Studio in MIdtown 11/5/2009

I have worked with a number of instructors at Bent, but Robbie is my favorite. He gets the job done with a laugh or two or three, but pays attention to what my body needs. For example, if I am out of balance he?ll pick more specific, slow and strengthening exercises with some hands on stretching. When I need to really strengthen a certain area of the body, he works that so deeply that I feel the effects for days. It?s a fun laid back atmosphere and the vibe of the studio feels like you are not in New York. It?s a home away from home. Pros: Professional, Great location more

Pros: Friendly professional staff & interesting exercises Cons: None more

A Great Workout!. Making New Freinds!! Bent is Fun Fun Fun!! 10/27/2009

We look forward to every Thursday night. That?s the night we have our duo session with Kim at Bent Pilates Studio. We both have very different needs as one of us is disabled with MS and one of us has osteoporosis. It was our Neurologist that suggested we try Pilates to gain muscle flexibility. It has been about three years now and Kim has managed to give us both a great workout while being highly tuned into each of our special needs. Pilates is not only good for the body but it?s great for the mind. At Bent Pilates Studio, the instructors employ a wide range of techniques to address each client. There is something for everyone. And one of the best parts of our weekly Pilates session is that our abs get a super special workout because we laugh like crazy. It is a great time. Thank you, Kim, for creating such a cool and relaxed environment that makes it easy and fun to get in shape. Pros: Best Personal Pilates anywhere! Great prices! Cons: None more

Who Knew Working Your Abs Could Be So Much Fun! 1/14/2006

Kim, owner of Bent Pilates, not only brings years of expertise to her training sessions, but she also makes it such an enjoyable experience that you really don't mind that your abs are getting a workout. She has a well balanced base to her routine and then adds a nice variety of exercises in order to help each individual work on their specific needs and challenges. She has an amazing knowledge of the skeletal muscle system and the different injuries that can arise from certain activities. Whenever I've had something bothering me, she immediately knew which muscle needed to either be stretched or strengthened. Definitely check out her studio if you haven't already. Pros: Inexpensive, Great Location more
