Marilyn took her time to understand and listen to what my body needed and helped me through a bad case of vertigo using her Neurokinetic Therapy...so grateful.

Marilyn has been a wonderful Pilates instructor and has helped me progress so much in a year. I started coming to her because of a partial shoulder tear, and I’d done PT for months and months with no improvement. After a year of Pilates and NKT with Marilyn, my shoulder pain is gone and I’ve gotten stronger in every way. I’m sold for life. As long as Marilyn is here, I’ll be on her calendar!

I have been working with Marilyn for a few months. I signed up based on my Physiatrist’s recommendation to try Pilates after multiple injuries. To my surprise NKT has been life changing! She is an expert on core muscles and mind body connection. Thanks to the work I have done with her I am beginning to find strength and balance again! Highly recommend.

Marilyn is a fantastic Pilates instructor with incredible expertise! Her ability to combine Pilates and neurokinetic therapy is unique and abundantly helpful for therapeutic recovery and managing a healthy exercise regiment. She truly teaches you to mentally connect and understand your body so you can execute the Pilates techniques for optimal results for strengthening and flexibility. The environment and individualization she provides makes a significant impact on overall health especially if have any physical ailments that Pilates can help with then this is the place for you.

Marilyn is incredible! She is the answer to my aging with more flexibility and strength. Pilates is so individual…no ‘gym with machines’. Everything is specific to your needs. I highly recommend Pilates on Hudson.

Marilyn is really, truly amazing. She’s the real deal when it comes to Neurokinetics and Pilates, and if you deal with any sort of chronic pain/muscular issues or any injury, she is far superior to any physical therapist you could ever hope to go to. Pain that I began suffering from when I was a small child and worsened by the time I was in my mid teens has now been completely erased and only the mildest of tenderness still remains in my neck as I continue to work with her and iron those out as well. But my life has completely changed from one that was completely limited and ruled over by the ebb and flow of my pain to one where I can actually function as a healthy, conductive individual with a renewed sense of hope for my future.How I met Marilyn was that one day my Mom suggested I try Pilates, and with everything I was dealing with, I felt that anything could be helpful so I was willing to give it a try. My family found Marilyn‘s studio and I scheduled my first visit with her. I had been dealing with serious chronic pain in my back, shoulders, head and neck all my life, to the point that some days I was completely bedridden and couldn't move due to the pain. It's important to understand that to appreciate the full “wow” factor of all this: in one visit and with a single set of alignment exercises and muscle relaxation techniques (specifically around my jaw) I’d say about 90% of my pain and issues were completely alleviated. Extreme tension in my jaw caused extreme tension in my shoulders which by extension caused extreme issues in my back and the muscles overcompensated and overworked themselves constantly to the point of spasming. From the second session onward, I learned techniques to help with my lower back and stomach muscle area that led to me, as of this writing, having never had another back, leg or head spasm again. And right now we are currently working on strengthening my core and helping with my neck which tends to be the place where I (and many people) hold a lot of stress and muscle tension. But the significance of this is, my life changed drastically even after a single visit. Marilyn was able to analyze through watching the way I walked, sat and generally moved around that something was very off about my neuromuscular system and she was equipped with the exact knowledge needed to help me.I’m so grateful to Marilyn for all of her years of study and development to become the amazing and incredible resource of help and healing to people like me. If you suffer from any pain, injuries or other physical issues I implore you to give Marilyn and her incredible Neurokinetic Therapy and Pilates treatments a try. It is absolutely worth your time and she’s absolutely the real deal.

Have been attending both semi private and private classes for years here. Helpful, professional guidance without the boring "cookie cutter" PT I've had in the past. Treatments/exercises sculpted to YOU and what YOU need. I'm 'body smarter" than I was. I see improvement with every suggestion. You need to LISTEN to your body...that's important! Best decision I've made for myself!

Marilyn truly has a unique skill set!.She diagnoses all body rehab issues by including testing areas of the body one would think have no bearing on the actual problem - but as it turns out, these areas are the root of the problem. The difference between how my body performs before vs after adjusting these areas is just incredible, I still have a difficult time believing it! Beats any chiropractor, physical therapist, physiatrist, etc because these are LONG-TERM body (often spinal) changes, not a quick fix.Highly recommend!!

Marilyn has been absolutely instrumental in improving my quality of life and pain management through her expertise and dedication. As someone who has dealt with pain all of my life, having been born with Cerebral Palsy, I am truly grateful to have her as a resource in connecting my brain with muscles I never knew I had. Her use of NKT (NeuroKinetic Therapy) has identified and begun to address lifelong muscle compensation patterns. She never hesitates to answer my questions, offer advice and lets me know what I can work on outside of the studio. Thank you!!

Marilyn is a miracle worker. I recently started working out again after having a baby and woke up one morning with excruciating hip pain to the point that I could barely walk. I saw Marilyn that afternoon and she was able to diagnose the problem within half an hour and then work with me to get the right muscles "back on-line" and massage the over-working muscles to help them release. Two days later I am almost back to normal. Back in 2019 I had a hip/sciatica issue that took me weeks to resolve - I wish I had known Marilyn then!

Marilyn's knowledge of the functional anatomy of your muscles is incredible. She's not simply a pilates instructor, but also highly trained on musculature and movement. I went to her with a bad thoracic back strain and she's patiently and successfully helping me rehabilitate through NKT and tailored pilates workouts.

Marilyn is a miracle worker! I have seen so many doctors and surgeons, tried physical therapy, osteopathy, acupuncture, and pain specialists and nothing helped me until Marilyn. I am so much more comfortable now and so glad I found her and NKT.
