Pilates Space: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Wonderful Pilates studio - very welcoming and great teachers.
Fantastic experience: Incredible Pilates class, especially for beginners. I took the Intro to Reformer Pilates and felt the price was very fair for the quality of the classes. About 7 people per class and the instructor did a great job of giving everyone attention and correcting positioning. Very friendly and great place.
Thank you Brianna for taking the time to write a review for us. We take pride in the quality of our instruction and giving personal attention to everyone. We look forward to seeing you again and helping you on your Pilates journey!
Fantastic experience: Love this place. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Thanks for the review Kelly! We love having your Manitoulin Island energy here with us in the city. Keep that body moving!
Fantastic experience: Instructors are caring and supportive. I don't know how to put into words how much I love this place, it's like a second home. Like Cheers, but with pilates, not beer. I had serious injuries 6 years ago, and when we moved to Ottawa, I wanted to find a place I could continue pilates (advice from a physiotherapist) for my recovery. The one-on-one at the start was key to learning the basics, even though I knew them the review was important. The reformer classes are my favourite, but I also enjoy the challenge of the wunda chair. Thank you so much for providing such a friendly, caring and professional place!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! From our start in 2002, we had a mission to provide a friendly, caring and professional space for people to care for their bodies. We're delighted that 20 years later we're able to still provide this space for our community. It's because of dedicated participants like you and a dream team of teachers. Cheers to more Pilates for you and for all!
Fantastic experience: Great friendly people
Thank you Joe. Was great meeting you. Hope we can work together again sometime!
Fantastic experience: I've been attending group classes and private sessions at Pilates Space for almost 10 years now. I've worked with so many teachers, some have left, some are still there - and have loved every one of them. Each of them brings their own style and mood to the class and take the time to help you get the most out of the training. If I ever find myself struggling to get to class, the minute I show my mood turns around. I always walk out of class grateful (and tired) that I attended. This is where you want to be if you are interested in Pilates.
Thanks for sharing these words Gerry. You are an example of someone who is taking his health in his own hands. As you should! And you are getting the most of your Pilates experience with a variety of teachers and classes. Here's to another 10 years (or more!) together!
Fantastic experience: Great instructors, great workouts and great atmosphere!
Thank you!! We're always trying to do our best!
Fantastic experience: A well-run, welcoming studio with knowledgeable and approachable staff who treat patrons with respect and friendly personal attention. Always a highlight of my week to attend classes there. I highly recommend Pilates Space!
Thank you Trish! What a pleasure to have you back as a "regular"!
Fantastic experience: Well run and friendly atmosphere with expert and conscientious instruction. Started Pilates 3 years ago in my early 70s and experienced benefits right away from the variety of exercises and teaching there: e.g., greater awareness of the mind-body connection plus no more chronic pain in the lower back and left foot (plantar fasciitis). Pilates is now a key ingredient in my weekly physical and mental fitness regimen.
Thanks Paul! You're putting the work in and we're so happy about your results!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff at Pilates Space. I have had back issues which have improved considerably since I started working out there. I started working one-on-one with Jacquie and have progressed to Cathy's reformer class! Both wonderful, friendly, and supportive teachers. Great place. I look forward to going every week.
Thanks Laurel for sharing your positive experience. You've shown patience and perseverance and its been rewarding to witness your progress. Keep it up!

Fantastic experience: Great people
thanks for the review!!
Fantastic experience: It's difficult to overstate just how much The Pilates Space has done for me and my health and my wellness. Having first discovered Jacqueline Ethier's studio when I was at my most broken, after having had abdominal surgery, I was hopeful that trying this form of movement and exercise might ease some of my intense stiffness and discomfort. What I wasn't expecting was that in a very short time, and without any difficulty at all, that I would have BETTER and more free movement and that ALL my discomfort and even many aches and pains I had carried around for years would disappear! Every single teacher at The Pilates Space is warm, and engaging, kind and connected. As someone who has never been "athletic" or faithful to any kind of exercise other than walking, I was so pleasantly surprised to find a "fitness studio" so utterly free of judgement and any sense of elitism. It is a joy to be able to go to a place where everyone is truly just happy to see me succeed and feel well and where every teacher, in every class shows the same concern for my personal wellness and genuinely encourages my improvement as well as my enjoyment. I have never before found any kind of exercise this much FUN but taking classes at The Pilates Space is always a treat. I'm not sure if Pilates is addictive, but I AM SURE that everything about the positive energy, warmth and welcome of The Pilates Space, as well as the joy of the classes and the many benefits those classes give my body IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!
We are touched that the work we love to do has such a positive effect on your life. It inspires us to keep learning and keep sharing our love of movement!
