I chose MGayle Studios on the advice of my massage therapist who suggested I consider Pilates for posture and muscle strengthening. I had done Pilates mat work before and some Power Yoga but had never used the Reformer or Cadillac. I recently traveled to Europe and carried a 30-pound backpack along with a 60-pound roller suitcase up and down train stairs many times. I was able to do this more easily than I thought because of the strength I have in my core, legs and arms. And, I attribute that strength to my Pilates work with Katie and Marlo at MGayle. In my daily life, I have an overall sense of increased strength in opening doors and carrying bags. I am looking forward to running this summer and extra power generated by strong core muscles. The power of Pilates is in its ""low-high impact"" meaning you get high impact from a low impact workout. I have recommended Pilates training to some friends and would encourage anyone who is looking to improve their strength and posture to do Pilates at MGayle Studio.
