I have taken group and private lessons for 8 years at Agile Monkey. Talented, caring instructors and full schedule of classes to pick what works for me.
2 1/2 years ago I was ready to give up snow skiing which I have enjoyed all my life. I went to Agile Monkey with the intention of regaining strength and muscle tone. I told Karen Christiansen my goals - to be able to ski with confidence and to feel better and stronger in my body overall. She and I have been working together ever since and it has changed my life. Karen always asks what is going on with my body, she listens to my answers and we work directly on the issue of the moment. Karen is a very caring, knowledgeable and skilled instructor. I feel very safe working with her; if something does not feel right to me, Karen immediately changes the exercise. Her primary concerns are my safety and well being as well as helping me to continually strive for and reach my goals. All of the staff at Agile Monkey are friendly, helpful and welcoming. Having struggled for years to find a gym and/or workout program that I can sustain, I find incredible joy in going to my Pilates sessions every week.
I have been working with instructors at Agile Monkey for many years. Each one has brought thoughtful and personalized instruction to my pilates sessions. I have mild scoliosis along with pain issues with my neck and right hip/thigh area and they have worked diligently with me to keep these issues under control and to keep me strong and moving! I highly recommend Agile Monkey!
I am so thankful for the community at Agile Monkey! I've been attending classes consistently for 2 years and I finally found some exercise that I love!! I feel strong physically but also supported in my journey. Thank you to all the great folks at Agile Monkey! (See you in an hour for my next class!)
This is a beautiful, clean, well-equipped little studio. I've been taking classes, duets, and privates there for years now. All the instructors are well-studied and personable. I really love the core align equipment. Core-align is like doing Pilates standing up on moving platforms. It really challenges your balance, coordination, and strength. You can't get away with anything. Lots of core, back of legs and it works your feet and ankles too. Its a great workout for surfers of all varieties or anyone who wants to work on balance.
