terrible dishonesty from the owner, although I mentioned in the phone to the owner of Momentum that my Dr. has adviced me not to do any sort of exercise, due to deep inflammation he insisted they knew very well what worked better for the body and it was better to exercise after my adjustment....( so he knows better than Drs what better for his clients???The instructor was suppose to know my condition and guide me away from getting more Injured . Also he insisted that due to late timing for my cancelation I will be charged any how, so I should have to take the class. I went and lasted for about 25 min. The instructor had no clue of my back problem although Bryan said the instructor will work based on the knowledge I had provided to him over the phone when he insisted me to attend the class.I ask her if she was aware of my back injury and she could not respond anything, she seem confused and did not any thing about my condition. I asked her if she knew how to work with the pain in my lower back and she said there was nothing to prevent the pain. So I left. Seems to me as it is was more important to take my money from clients than to act more responsible and ethical way. Business is not just about money...
Read moreMomentum Studio is the most excellent in what they provide for the community near & far for 10 years. Prior to hearing about this particular studio, I had a few gym group mat class experience, and could not say that I liked it. Now, I am so glad that I got to learn the Pilates principles and movements from the right source at Momentum. My learning experience far exceeds my expectation as a person who is inclined to movements, exercises for years. The owners Aline and Bryan, together with every single instructor, nurture a healing, respectful and intimate environment for all. And there is a ton of fun accompanying the process. I belive this is the environment that helps to build a sense of well-being in me at an age approaching 40.
In addition to the main location in NE Heights, they have a 2nd location in Nob Hill neighborhood, like a jewel nestled just half a block from Central Ave. Plenty parking spots (meters or some street parking half a block away) in front and around the block.
I look forward to learning Gyrotonics and other methodologies...
Read moreI have been going to Momentum Studio for over 8 years and I consider it my second home. The level of knowledge and experience of the instructors is unsurpassed. The owners, Bryan and Aline, are there on a daily basis and truly care about their clients. I have used the studio for both fitness and physical therapy and the effect on a clients physical and emotional well being is well worth the investment. I highly recommend this studio and encourage anyone interested in Pilates or Gyrotonic to take a class or a private and experience it...
