I have taken pilates classes before and quite enjoy them. I decided to try the ""buy 1 class get the 2nd free"" from the Pilates Room. I consider myself to be in relatively good shape and try to work out or play tennis at least 3 times a week. I showed up for the first class and knew immediately that I was not going to like the class. Firstly, the teacher, Katia, had overbooked the class so people that had reserved a spot were told they could not participate. Secondly, Katia made a point of immediately telling me that she could 'not believe' I played tennis because it appeared that ""I had no abs"" whatsoever. When I attempted to do the 'downward dog' position on the reformer machine, she told me I looked like ""a camel."" I left that class near tears and knew that I would never be back, even though I would have received the 2nd class for free. Maybe the other teachers are ok, but Katia will make you feel very bad about yourself.
Cons: Thumbs down
