LSF Pilates

Simply the best! small class sizes are less intimidating for a beginner. All instructors are 10/10, they make you feel comfortable and ensure you’re not going to hurt yourself.

I have been doing pilates at LSF for a couple of months now after receiving a gift certificate from one of my daughters. I had been recovering from a herniated disc that also led to the discovery of mild scoliosis, which is not abnormal for older women, in particular. I took all of these issues to LSF and was rewarded with excellent knowledge and experience helping others like myself work back to a strong, flexible body. While I don't always love it (but need it!), every instructor has been on me for positioning and form, which is key to not getting reinjured. As a pilates newbie, it's been helpful and I do not exaggerate when I say that I have been mostly pain-free since starting.

My only struggle is with signing up for classes. Because they fill up very quickly, it is hard to budget because you need to sign up for a lot of classes in advance, which means you have to pay for a lot of classes at once. (They're certainly worth it and priced fairly.) I have had success with the waiting list, however, and there was only one time I did not get into the class. The silver lining of all this is that clearly people think highly of the classes/instructors and want to get in!

I also appreciate that the owner/staff "hear" clients and try to make class policy changes that are sensible and not just penal. It's not easy running a small fitness business, so just them being there as a resource is terrific. They play great music, everyone is super friendly and down-to-earth, and the studio is cute. Thrilled to be an LSF'r and look forward to a pain-free spring and summer unlike last year!

Thanks, LSF!

The best way to start a day - or any part of the day. Clean, bright, beautiful studio. Incredibly well trained instructor team. Small class size feels like a semi private session with just the right amount of company. My number one workout on the Main Line!!

LSF is the best! Liz and all the instructors are amazing. They make you feel comfortable if fitness classes intimate you. Pilates has done wonders for my back and overall strength. The new studio is beautiful too!

Lauren is the best! She is the reason I started at this studio. And all of LSF instructors always make me feel like they are solely there to help me - even though I know they are attending to the other 6 people just as much! It’s very personalized which I love!

LSF is my favorite place to go. Liz is truly a great instructor. Every class feels like a private lesson. She knows how to push you without going beyond your boundaries. Her knowledge of the body coupled with her Pilates expertise will have you feeling great and improving every visit. She is patient and professional, which is great if you might not be up to speed with everyone in the class!!! You need to give LSF a try, it's the best Pilates on the main line.

I feel like I have found my Exercise Home! Great instructors in a sun lit small studio with tons of personal instruction from skilled instructors. It is both a healing experience and also a challenging one!

There are 4 major events/experiences that have shaped my life over these 80 years.
My high school (Xavier HS in NYC), my marriage, the birth of our Son and Pilates at LSF under the exacting and demanding direction of Liz supported by her detailed and also demanding staff.

The ladies at LSF have all been wonderful in introducing me to this new body language I’ve come to love called Pilates! Jackie and Liz, both, have opened my eyes to the wonderful benefits and possibilities of this exercise, truly amazing!

LSF Pilates is the best there is. I left getting in shape for my wedding until the very last minute, and Liz was able to help me look my best in no time at all. Liz’s classes are small, so each person receives special attention and instruction. Liz pays very close attention to your form, and corrects you as needed which ensures that you not only get optimal results, but you also avoid injury. Liz’s studio is bright and clean. LSF Pilates is my favorite place to work out on the main line!

Outstanding, supportive, and a positive environment, especially if you’re new to Pilates and wanna make friends or just relax and decompress :)

LSF Pilates is one-of-a-kind. I make a point to go every time I'm back on the Main Line. I wish we had one in DC. Liz is a very knowledgable and skilled instructor. I like that she is constantly evolving her teaching methods so that you never get bored of the moves and are always surprised by the routine. She pushes you but can easily recognize your limits so that you are appropriately challenged. I would highly recommend! She is the best in the biz.

Liz knows her stuff! I've been doing pilates at LSF for 3 years and love it. I absolutely feel a difference and notice a difference after several sessions. I worked out religiously (2-3 times a week) at LSF the 5 months leading up to my wedding and had the best bride arms! You will feel good and look good after doing pilates at LSF!

I’m new to Pilates and these classes have been amazing! Super welcoming atmosphere, challenging classes, and clean/cute studio!!

LSF is a great place. I have been going there for years. The exercises are always challenging and never boring. Liz cares about each of her students. I have yet to find another teacher at her level.

Liz helps me be the best I can be physically. She cares about each session and I always leave feeling pleased with the results. She has a wonderful sense for the direction in which to lead each session. LSF is top-notch!

This is the only work out I have ever gotten excited for! I get sad when I can’t take a class because it is full so I am making sure to secure my spot by booking ahead! Such a cute studio and they work you hard!

Love these classes! All the instructors are excellent and it’s a fun, inclusive and super positive environment. Highly recommend.

Added some private sessions at LSF to help fix severely restricted shoulder movement stemming from old injuries. My range of motion improved significantly after just two sessions and the pain/tension is far less frequent.

Been going twice a week for two years and just love it. The instructors are great, the studio is clean, and the workout is fantastic!!! Try it, you will be hooked...
