Erika makes Pilates a blast with her clever cues and humorous metaphors. Each class is a blend of expert guidance and entertainment, and I can feel my core getting stronger in just a short time. Regular Pilates practice enhances my performance in the other physical activities I love. Highly recommended.

If you are looking for long-term health and wellness benefits, commit to Pilates regularly. My motivation to start was chronic back pain. After six months of twice-weekly classes I am able to work a physically demanding job pain free. I am constantly recommending Erica’s pilates classes to clients and friends. It is easy to keep up with the work because Erica’s style is upbeat and encouraging! I leave class feeling really great and start my work day with sense of accomplishment.

I have been enjoying and benefiting from Pilates with Erika for almost 2 years. After 2 total knee replacements, I finally transitioned from physical therapy to the Pilates Loft to continue healing. The results have been immeasurable. I have regained much of my previously compromised core strength, flexibility and balance. Erika is a supremely trained instructor. Her ability to articulately direct focus and visualization to a variety of individual needs is exceptional. And she does it with warmth and humor and genuine care.The studio space is inviting and immaculate, and the equipment is top notch. This is Pilates at its very best.

I have attended multiple fitness classes through my years and Erika is the best instructor that I have experienced. She is knowledgable, detailed oriented, safe and fun to work with. She has taught me body alignment and awareness that is so beneficial. But not only is Erika great, her studio is beautiful with state of the art equipment.

I have been taking private, tower and duet classes for over 6 months at The Pilates Loft. After reading Erika's reviews there is nothing I can add that hasn't already been mentioned. The studio is an amazing place to come to. Thank you Erika for all your great guidance and sense of humor; I really enjoy my work out routines with you.

As an older, beginner student looking to increase core strength and flexibility, Erika is an excellent instructor for me. She's encouraging, fun and demanding at the same time. Excellent at noticing what the body is doing through intricate exercises, she uses both physical demonstrations and verbal pictures to get you to understand what you should be doing to get the most out of the exercises. Since becoming a Pilates regular, I've learned how to protect my back and have drastically reduced pain and spasm episodes. Great sunny space. Top-notch equipment. She's the best!!

I’ve taken Pilates and barre at many studios. But Erika the owner of Pilates loft is hands down the best instructor I’ve ever had. Her knowledge and compassion is outstanding. She has taught me to use my body properly to make me stronger and reduce injury. She is great at explaining the mechanics while making class fun. I can’t give anyone a higher recommendation. She’s the best.

Erika is a great Pilates teacher! She explains every exercise in wonderful detail as she navigates the class through a mat workout. Her energy and enthusiasm for her craft come through in every class she teaches. Thank you Erika!!

If you’re a guy like me who may be intrigued by the potential of Pilates but hesitant to start because it’s a “girl thing,” take one session with Erika and you’ll view the Pilates world through a different lens. Although Pilates has a steeper learning curve than I expected, Erika’s knowledge is deep and she shares that knowledge with passion, anatomy-specific insight, and a sense of humor. And what I appreciate perhaps more than anything is the extra effort she gives to provide the attention to detail that makes a good experience a great one. Highly recommended.

Erika is very experienced and laser-focused in her instruction. I appreciate how she uses every minute of a private session committed to the work! She very quickly identified my weaknesses and imbalances and is addressing them thoughtfully and with my safety and health in mind.I am a long time yoga instructor and PT and this is my first experience with Pilates. I feel SO lucky that Erika is my first teacher and the method is waking up knowledge in my body that I didn’t know was possible!Erika is wonderful and her studio is beautiful- I wish I could give her more stars!!

I am thrilled to have discovered The Pilates Loft! I only wish I found this studio earlier. Erika is, by far, the best instructor I have worked with. Her experience and deep knowledge of the practice enables her to provide exceptional instruction and cues to each student. She helped me engage the right muscles and find the correct forms so that I got the most out of the hour in the studio. Erika is truly a master of the craft! Thank you!!

Thank you, Pilates Loft, for helping me prepare for double knee replacement and then the recovery. Erika is so knowledgeable and caring! I’ve studied Pilates for years and she is truly an amazing teacher. The studio is lovely and extremely clean. She practices safe protocols and cares deeply about her students.

My wife and I have been taking Pilates with Erika for about 3 years, averaging 2 times per week, most recently in the virtual Basic Mat and Tower and Solo/duet classes. The classes have made a big difference in both our core strength, improved our balance and overall fitness. The classes are fun, professionally run and always have several variations on the basic abs and springs work. The major draw is that Erika is able to effortlessly adjust the regimen to accommodate an individual’s particular physical idiosyncrasies. We particularly enjoyed the duet classes. ! Many thx. Rick
