I can't say enough about the effectiveness of this program, and the caliber of the IM=X Pilates Studio. If you or someone you know is 'on the fence', you owe it to yourself to experience this first hand. Dani began her IM=X Pilates journey over four years ago. She walked by it many times over the first few months after Darci (the owner) had opened the studio and thought that maybe it would be the right fit for her. With a life-long history of clumsy accidents, broken bones, surgeries and chronic back pain (from a clumsy accident while running) she was tired of being in pain. After researching the differences between classic Pilates and IM=X Pilates it seemed like the perfect fit for her, and she never looked back! Her husband, Rick, on the other hand, has only been on his journey for a year so far. He started after seeing his wife's transformation and decided to give it a try for himself (with a little gentle nudging from his wife ;)). Rick had never done Pilates while Dani had tried it years ago at a friend's house with a small portable reformer. When Dani and Rick came to the studio they felt welcomed into the environment and the culture that Darci and the members have worked to create. Everyone provides support to one another, everyone truly believes in one another and all who walk through the doors feel the tremendous support of not only the staff, but also the great community of members. Not only are the instructors extraordinary but every member I have met has been supportive and an absolute pleasure to know The results for Dani and Rick have been amazing. Dani's balance is much better and her accidents are much less frequent and less severe. She is more toned, and has gained an inch in height (back from losing an inch and a half) and her blood pressure is back to healthy levels and credits IM=X, as it's one of the few things that actually calms her mind. Rick was surprised how quickly his strength and endurance had improved from Pilates. He's noticed improvement in flexibility (while saying he has a long way to go yet) and enjoys the singular focus this exercise affords making it very easy to center his mind and truly relax during each workout. I didn't know people could just stand while putting on pants- literally I would fall over- now I don't Dani and Rick have both made their time at the studio as one of their 'must-do's' each week. Not only do the workouts continue to challenge them but they also love the environment that allows them to relax and grow. While they both have many commitments; work, friends, and family while keeping up a home and taking care of two pups, IM=X is the one thing that they do for them. They have made it a priority. Now, not everything is IM=X heaven at the studio. Improvement could be made. For example, Dani wishes she could put Darci in her back pocket so she could get the same benefits of her pushing her to be her best while she's traveling for work. Rick on the other hand... wishes there were more margaritas. We are so happy that Dani and Rick are working with us on their fitness goals. We couldn't be happier to see them when they come in as they cheer on other members to do what they thought wasn't possible before because... well, they've been there in there shoes. They always do their best and with such positive attitudes it's no wonder that IM=X has been such a great fit for them. They are truly loyal members.
