"Mary Liz makes this increasingly
popular form of exercise an 'almost religious' experience. I was close
to abandoning this unconventional exercise regimen, and then I found
Mary Liz. She puts me at ease as she guides me towards mentally mastering
my breathing and posture while putting my body through an incredible
workout. She is like a combination of an inner voice in my head and
background music, all in one. With the patience of a saint, ever-cheerful
attitude, and an unmatched knowledge of her craft, Mary Liz is simply
the best."

client since 2001
"As a fitness buff and nurse practitioner, I began
doing Pilates to add to other activities I enjoyed. I have been working
with Mary Liz as my Pilates personal trainer for three years and appreciate
her expertise and knowledge level. My flexibility and core strength
have improved dramatically, as well as adding to how strong I have
become. Mary Liz is a motivator and such a pleasure to work with."
--Kaye Ripley
"Mary Liz has 'a way about her' that no other
trainer can match. Her cueing techniques and visual imagery, while
sometimes humorous and other times very serious, instantly trigger
muscle response in no other way I've ever experienced. Her patience,
calming dynamics and her innovative approach to the Pilates' philosophy
of movement strategies have refined her teaching technique to a superior
quality and it shows in the passionate way she teaches…her presence
inspires me to do my best."
--Nicola Mahn
"My private Pilates training with Mary Liz is
the ONLY way to go! I've seen the best results. This exercise program
requires a personal trainer to supervise and monitor correct form
and Mary Liz' cueing technique fills the entire hour. My sessions
with Mary Liz have improved my joint mobility, lengthened and strengthened
my muscles, and enhanced my balance and posture. I credit my Pilates
sessions with Mary Liz to my improved golf game--I took 12 strokes
off last season's best score!"
--Jana Clarke
"I really enjoy my private sessions with Mary
Liz. She definitely knows what she is talking about and does a great
job of sharing her knowledge. She pushes me beyond what I think I
am capable of and I always feel like I've had a great workout!"
