I was staying in an Airbnb in the area for 6 weeks and had 12 sessions with Tenley. It had been years since I've had a pilates class and Tenley is an incredible instructor and coach. In addition to being very knowledgable about pilates and the body, she's also entertaining and engaging. I really wish I lived in Portland so I could continue training with Tenley. LOVE HER.

Great customer service, very user friendly scheduling and so convenient. My teacher is awesome and in tune with my body. I love the ease of use and I'm getting a ton out of each lesson. It's doing wonders for my core strength. I notice a huge difference after a short time. The 1on 1 teaching in my own home has been great. I prefer it to going to studio. Way more convenient. Highly recommend.
