TESTIMONIALS

I worked with Tom leading into the 2004 Olympics and truly believe that his unique style of teaching and exercises helped me earn my five medals.
Natalie Coughlin, Olympic Gold Medal Swimmer

Tom's Pilates and Yoga program played a significant role in my success. He helped me move more efficiently in the water, avoid injuries, and improve my functional strength.

The Center of Balance Studio has, for years, consistently delivered exceptional fitness results. It offers a unique combination of group and individual options, has way-easy access near 101 and 85, and provides a calm and inviting atmosphere. Workshops and retreats have helped strengthen my Pilates practice. Several years ago, a knee injury led me to the Center of Balance. I did not believe Pilates could help my injury, especially on the heels of seeing three different orthopedic surgeons and with unsuccessful physical therapy. About five weeks into the Pilates sessions with Tom, one day, as I walked down the hallway at work, I noticed... nothing... an absence of pain -- it was a small miracle. I've developed great respect for the benefits of Pilates through the Center of Balance.

I feel I've gained a lot of "body knowledge" and can activate certain muscles now. At the beginning, I wasn't sure if my muscles were activated or not.
Bridget C, Administrative

I've gained a greater understanding of Pilates including the core, breathing, and engaging of muscles. I leave class feeling stretched and as if I've worked, but also energized and aligned. I love it!

My first down dog since breaking my wrist! My neck and shoulder feel so free, and my lower back released.

This has changed my approach to exercise from "working" to concentrating and focus on movement.

After two babies, I suffered chronic hip pain that disappeared after strengthening my core and increasing flexibility through Tom's workout.
