"I had a lower back injury (two herniated discs) that was causing me excruciating pain with walking and standing. I went to Erika for help with core strengthening and she was incredible. 

She has an amazing knowledge and intuition about body mechanics and I credit her work with helping me reduce my pain levels until I was completely pain free after about six months. 

Erika's constant encouragement and expertise kept me going. I have had some really good fitness instructors and physical therapists over the years, but Erika surpasses them all. I will forever be grateful for the work she did to help me regain my strength and overcome my injury."

"I've worked with Erika twice now - after my first pregnancy in 2013, and again in 2017 after my second. Erika offers conservative and careful suggestions and adjustments to make the class safe for all levels. 

For my second pregnancy, I also worked with Erika 1:1 for a series of private sessions. This was totally worth it. At the time, my ob/gyn had also referred me to a pelvic floor physical therapist, and I found the sessions with Erika to be BETTER in terms of rebuilding pelvic floor muscles and overall recovery than the sessions with the PT. 

Since the PT cost $250/session (out of network provider), the per session privates with Erika were a great deal by comparison. Her instruction is methodical, appropriately paced, and precise. While at times it felt "slow" or I felt like I wanted to be pushing myself harder, I listened to her professional advice and she helped meticulously rebuild my abs and pelvic floor from the inside out. 

I was totally thrilled after 6 weeks to actually see some tone in my abs again - amazing!

I highly recommend investing in the privates if possible. Your body will thank you, especially later in life. Bonus - you can bring your baby to the privates with you, which is so helpful during maternity leave."

"It's hard for me to share this review because I LOVE Erika and don't want to share her But she is awesome. Not your standard Pilates instructor, Erika knows the body better than most Pilates instructors and I've worked with a lot! 

In fact working with Erika and my physiotherapist I managed to avoid shoulder surgery and regain full use of my shoulder. When my Dr and surgeon said it was not possible. 

She works on more than just your 'core' and she's lovely to boot. Good Luck!"

"Erika is fantastic at both private lessons and group. I saw her after having two boys back to back (I was about 8 months postpartum). 

She not only got me back in shape but got me in better shape then before. For the first time in my life I had a legit 6 pack. 

Can't say enough able it this fantastic instructor."
