Testimonials

Diane is a profound and immensely skilled teacher and coach of Pilates. Her ability to gauge exactly what is needed helped me through a very prolonged, painful condition. She worked slowly and deeply with me, finding ways to engage my body by respecting its neuro-muscular contractions, and softening them into release and ease. Her experience and body-centered approach made it possible for me to by-pass defensive patterns and give my body an integrated sense of well-being. I so appreciate Diane’s work - she can work with the able-bodied athlete, the injured, and people of all ages, matching acutely and with somatic insight what supports most for each condition and each client.

I have been going to Bolder Pilates for over 12 years. Donna and company are second to none! After only doing in-person instruction, I was skeptical about trying sessions in a virtual format during the COVID 19 pandemic…BOY, was I wrong! The virtual classes are in some ways even better than in-person. I feel like the teacher is talking directly to me during the Zoom sessions. She is able to modify for us as needed even over Zoom. Some of the most challenging classes I've taken have been via Zoom. Even virtually, Bolder Pilates is able to balance challenge and support, which has always been one of my favorite things about going there. I am looking forward to returning to in-person sessions but I have not missed a beat by participating in the virtual classes. Simply the best!

I’m so pleased with the progress my wife and I have made in the last several months with Nicole’s help! When we started working with Nicole, we had not been exercising in a long time and had no experience in Pilates. We’re doing exercises now that I wouldn’t have guessed we’d be able to do. We also both have some health challenges that can make exercise frustrating and difficult. But Nicole has been incredibly patient and flexible, creating and guiding us through workouts that are challenging but within our abilities so that we can keep improving. Thank you, Nicole!

Bolder Pilates is the epitome of excellence. Every member of the staff is highly skilled, professional and attentive. The space is small, modern, beautiful and clean. Whether you’re new to Pilates or a seasoned practitioner, you will be welcomed and challenged in the appropriate ways. My core and overall alignment have never felt stronger!

As a "newbie" to Pilates I was, like many are, a little apprehensive about going to a Pilates session. But as soon as you walk through the doors the whole place just feels like a giant hug. Every detail about the studio is carefully curated, and that's exactly what the instructors offer for their clients. It's not just an amazing full body workout, it's a custom tailored education in the body and in movement… and, I could not have been more comfortable. I highly recommend this studio!

Wow! I am in awe of the phenomenal pilates instruction at Bolder Pilates. As a doctor of physical therapy I have been hugely impressed by the high caliber, attention to deal and overall excellence offered by the instructors at this studio. In both small group classes and individualized sessions the instructors are so in tune with movement, breath, and create an easeful experience ensuring both safety and results. I rate it highly and would not hesitate to recommend Bolder Pilates to my clients.

I've been working with Lexy at Bolder Pilates for about 4 months now with incredible results. Like most Boulder, 30-somethings, I've been in and out of physical therapy, orthopods, and private/group gym training and classes as the result of a active lifestyle. Most of those focus on pain management, not long term corrective exercises and strengthening. I've never had such focused and isolated muscle strengthening like I've gotten and Bolder Pilates. The ability to not workout from a script but rather build a session based on how I'm feeling that moment and adjusting in real-time when posture, pain or kinematics dictates is incredible and effective. I've never done anything that has been so beneficial to my skiing and cycling. Looking at results, there really isn't a bigger bang for the buck in town. Additionally, it's served as a great way to combat the negative effects of a office/desk day job.

With over 18 years of teaching experience, Donna brings a unique and effective approach to the Pilates Method. I have worked alongside her at Bolder Pilates for many years, and I am completely confident in her ability to transform and further rehabilitate just about any person - whether they are an elite athlete or someone recovering from complex injuries. Donna goes above and beyond with her clients and tailors every session with precision to the specific needs of the client; she gives safe and effective cues and modifies exercises when necessary. Donna, and her amazing team at Bolder Pilates are always my first choice in recommending Pilates sessions to any of my patients, and I hear nothing but praise in return.

I am doing Prenatal one-on-one pilates with Donna and it's great for me to get stronger and ready for my first baby. She is extremely knowledgable, and makes me feel safe and secure as my body changes. I definitely recommend her studio (I also love all of the other instructors there too). The studio itself is beautiful and clean.
