"Starting Pilates at 55 felt intimidating, especially as a true beginner walking up to the reformer for the first time. But from day one, Shine made me feel welcomed. Shanna is the perfect balance of caring and disciplined-a true instructor who wants her clients to learn correctly and safely. A recent class summed up exactly why I love this studio. I accidentally showed up for a more advanced session, and instead of making me feel out of place, Shanna encouraged me to stay, helped me feel comfortable, and simply said, “Stay, Ruthie. Shine on.” That small moment meant so much. I also have to mention Laura, who has been equally encouraging and wonderful. She’s taught me new things on the reformer that helped build my confidence, and like Shanna, she somehow makes you want to keep showing up. I might even become a 6 a.m. Pilates person for Laura’s class… and that says a lot! What truly sets Shine apart is its commitment to authentic classical Pilates. The instructors here have thousands of hours of training and follow the original Pilates method with incredible attention to form, safety, and technique-something that is becoming increasingly rare. And the results speak for themselves. After just three months at Shine, I already feel stronger, more agile, and my body no longer aches the way it once did. Even better, I genuinely look forward to every session. I’m so grateful I found Shine."

"I have found my place! I had hurt my back at a chain pilates place a couple years ago and was tentative to try again. Shine is so different! The owner Shanna knew how to accommodate my tender back and carefully built strength back up. This has been life changing for me! She is so good at working with each client and is well trained in CLASSICAL pilates which is slow and careful but you start seeing results in just a few classes. I'm in my 50s and it feels like physical therapy, but enjoyable. I have improved so much in core strength, upper back, neck, wrists, arms .... no more aches and pains. I love it here. 🥰"

"I started at Shine about a month ago~absolutely love this place! I have a lot of medical issues involving my joints and spine. Shanna is wonderful at adapting moves to accommodate till I build strength. I am Not the typical “Pilates body” and I have never felt out of place here. Classes are kept small so that the instructor can really watch over us all. I highly recommend trying Shine out, especially if you’re experiencing pain ~ I feel good after the classes & inspired to work on this wellness journey for me."
