Pilates Coven

I have found Pilates Coven to offer exceptional community, a great vibe (with music/lighting/overall tone), and talented instructors. I would describe myself as very new in my practice but I’ve found that you can learn something special from the different styles of the instructors. I especially enjoy the classes with Sabrina, Sarah, and Shira. I think I most appreciate how attentive the instructors are and how they stay in close proximity and are actively supporting and when necessary correcting throughout the entire class. Everyone who works there seems to genuinely enjoy it and seems supported and valued in their work, which is something that makes me really appreciate supporting a small business. I also find the other people who attend to be positive and supportive of one another. I wish I could attend Pilates Coven more often than I do! But I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a boutique small group fitness class.

I’ve been coming to Pilates Coven for a few months now. I actually chose this studio for my first ever dabble into Pilates. I highly recommend Sabrina’s beginner classes - she is very articulate, caring, and communicative about the reformer, moves, props etc. I received a great base knowledge that within a few sessions, I moved to the all level classes. I highly recommend Sabrina for those as well. I would also recommend Andrea’s classes. She is so great at cueing and gives you many modifications if needed. She is clearly knowledgeable and her classes are always so fun, yet challenging, yet a learning experience about your body and Pilates itself. Give this studio a try!

Took my open level class yesterday with Andrea, and I could not be happier with the instructor. She was very attentive, her cues were easy to follow, corrected me and made sure I was doing the movements properly and safely. The place is cozy, comfortable, and super-clean. I am very happy with the service I received. I will definitely be coming back for more classes.

I live in Queens, but I've taken several classes at the Coven because I love the atmosphere here. What a refreshing vibe compared with the typical brightly-lit, loft style studios. Pilates Coven is cozy, comfortable, and well-run. I'm very new to reformer Pilates and I greatly appreciate Sabrina's gentle and helpful corrections, and body-positive practice. As a fat person, I don't feel marginalized in this space, but rather supported, encouraged, and welcomed. I also appreciate that class starts on time. If you can't understand why it's disruptive, distracting, and rude to walk into a class 10 minutes late, regardless of the reason, then you need to adjust your worldview to be less self-absorbed.

Cannot recommend Pilates Coven enough! The studio emphasizes inclusivity, and all bodies are welcomed. Since coming to the studio I’ve had the pleasure of taking classes with a number of different instructors, there’s a style to suit every need and modifications are always welcomed and accepted. Everyone from the owners to instructors to the other clients are all welcoming and encouraging. I also love that it’s a small, woman owned, business, so your dollars go towards supporting the community. Definitely a studio worth trying!
