“Laura has been one of my quarantine blessings. Not only do I appreciate her consistent classes, but I admire her work ethic, diligence, and ability to communicate over Zoom. As a professional dancer, it is always vital for me to have an instructor who understands the dancer body. Laura has helped maintain and build strength as I eagerly wait for my dance company to go back into full swing. One of the very few Pilates instructors I’ve experienced who keeps you motivated and wanting more.”

“I found Laura through Pilates Mat classes at Equinox. I was immediately obsessed with her technique and knew right away that I needed to work with her one-on-one. She got me fit and toned for my wedding, while also becoming my friend in the process. When I found out that I was pregnant, it was a no-brainer that I would continue to work with her to stay active and in shape throughout my pregnancy - and to prepare for labor. Laura is the only person I trust with my body and I could sing her praises all day. She is not only a true master of Pilates, but a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the human body. My favorite thing about working with Laura (other than her being an absolute pleasure and a bright spot in my day) is that she is so intuitive. She knows exactly when to push, what exercises I can benefit from, and when to tell me how many reps I have left so that I can soldier through. I am constantly amazed at how she always keeps sessions fun and interesting and can adapt to my changing needs on the fly. Anyone who works with her knows just how lucky they are to have found her.”

“I met Laura on my first day of Pilates Teacher Training and it was a combination of love, respect and admiration at first speak. As a seasoned fitness professional and former presenter, I am always delighted when I see someone living their passion so effortlessly. Holding space and educating students is no easy task and she does so with ease, grace and poise. Laura shares her joy, brilliance, and authenticity through her teaching and the rapport she builds with her students. She delivers her trainings and sessions with a knowledge deep in her soul and a kindness to share the tried and true principles of Pilates. She was my Pilates mentor throughout teacher training and I developed such a bond with her, she is now my teacher and I am her client. I purchased a reformer for my home practice so we could continue our Pilates-ship together. Laura is a class act, a one of a kind teacher and I’m very lucky to have her in my life.”
