Pivotal Pilates — Attraction in Matawan

From the moment I reached out to Pivotal Pilates, I knew I had found something special. Cori was so warm and welcoming right from our very first text exchange—she was incredibly responsive, invited me in for a tour, and had me all set up in no time. She made me feel completely at ease and at home, greeting me (and everyone) by name and always with a big smile. That personal touch is something you feel every time you walk through the door.

All of the instructors are amazing, but Zoe has been a true game changer for me!! Her energy is contagious, her playlists are always on point, and she somehow manages to challenge you while keeping the class upbeat and fun. We laugh AND work hard which is the best combination! Every class is different, which keeps things fresh and exciting, you’ll never do the same class twice. I’ve even started taking private lessons with her, and the progress I’ve seen in my strength and stability has been incredible. She’s inspired me to set higher fitness goals and actually believe I can reach them. Zoe is like no other fitness instructor I’ve ever met- inspiring, encouraging, and motivating!

The Pivotal Pilates studio itself is full of thoughtful perks—small class sizes for personalized attention, convenient parking, and a snack/drink area that just adds to the welcoming vibe. I came in as a Pilates reformer beginner (though not new to fitness), and I always feel challenged in the best way. Each class is something I genuinely look forward to during my week.

I would recommend Pivotal Pilates to anyone in a heartbeat. It’s more than just a workout studio—it’s a supportive, uplifting, and empowering community that truly makes you want to keep...

I’ve been attending Pivotal Pilates group reformer classes for about 2 months with trainer, Zoe. Zoe is a wonderful teacher and keeps the classes individualized and motivating. She knows when to push you further and when to offer modifications to fit your fitness level. Zoe is incredibly knowledgeable about the science of Pilates, always learning and implementing new things with each class to keep classes interesting. I also appreciate that she takes an extra step to teach the purpose and benefits of each of the moves we do and how to modify intensity accordingly. Her classes are extremely positive and encouraging and I leave each time feeling challenged but successful with my growth.

Additionally, staff have been very accommodating of my specific goals, helping me to design a schedule and select classes that most fit what I’m looking for. Very nice ladies, and a great experience for all levels of students.

I’m a satisfied student of this studio and would strongly recommend it to anyone looking to try Pilates as well as to seasoned students looking to advance their...

I truly enjoy my workout experience at Pivotal Pilates. From the moment I walked in for my three introductory sessions with Jen I knew this would be a great place. Jen was amazing at showing me the basics of Pilates and helping me find reformer classes that would suite my needs. Susan and her instructors have a wonderful disposition and are extremely skillful instructors. When initially starting I had a lot of body and self confidence issues since I had gained an extreme amount of weight. I was not comfortable with how I looked; however, never once did I feel out of place or uncomfortable. I love the intimacy of the classes, knowledge of the instructors and the welcomeness of the studio. Since my journey I’ve attend several group classes with various instructors and personal sessions with Susan. I’ve enjoyed learning more about my body, what works best for my body even with health challenges and overall body movement at Pivotal. I highly recommend...
