Pilates Testimonials

I’ve been working with Nicole for over 3 years, starting with no previous Pilates exposure. In the beginning, I felt uncoordinated. My core muscles were reluctant to engage properly. But because of Nicole’s skill at instructing what you should feel, and minutely adjusting the way a body part is positioned eventually led to my body “getting it”. I particularly am impressed with her ability to tailor each session to my goals and abilities. I appreciate that she treats me as a unique individual. I’ve become stronger and more capable with the passage of time. It seems there is always more to learn, and I enjoy taking the journey with Nicole’s oversight.

I’ve been doing Pilates with Nicole for a few months and have seen positive results in my core, balance and walk. I love the low impact workout. It is not so much sweating as it is concentrating and breathing. Pilates stretches, strengthens and aligns the body all at the same time. I did CrossFit for almost 2 years and didn’t see the results I’m seeing with Pilates. One thing that surprised me was how well I sleep on the nights I do Pilates. My body feels so good and relaxed after my workout, yet I’m strengthening my muscles. I have learned so much about my body through Pilates and continue to. I would highly recommend Budget and Body By Nicole if you’re looking to change your life for the better.

I have tried a few Pilates classes at my gym but always felt that I couldn’t keep up. Nicole takes her time to demonstrate each move and make sure you are performing it correctly. She is very knowledgeable about the body and how to use Pilates exercises to correct imbalances. I was looking for a workout that would strengthen my body without having to lift heavy weights, rid my self of back pain and work with my arthritis, and I found all of that and more with Nicole.

I am a current Pilates client of Nicole’s and we’ve been working together for a few months now. During this time, I have noticed myself getting stronger and more flexible. I am able to progress through the workouts with ease and at just the right degree of challenge for me to keep me coming back. Nicole is very skilled at assessing your needs. She works with you in a manner that is consistent with your abilities. She makes the workouts fun and is very encouraging. I can see my body becoming more defined and toned as we continue. I would highly recommend Nicole as she is very caring and supportive as well as excellent at what she does.
