What Our Customers Are Saying...
I always wanted to take pilates but did not wish to take an all woman's class. I found through my wife, who also takes pilates at the studio, that they offered a man's class. I went right away and have gone ever since. Suzanne is an amazing instructor and pushes me every class. I have never attended a class and had it exactly the same positions all the way through. I took up pilates as I am a cyclist and knew a strong core meant growing my cycling skills. It has been all I hoped for and more. My back is no where as weak as it once was and I am developing muscles I KNOW I need for the latter part of my life. Anyone not taking pilates and at this studio is just plain missing out!

I've been doing pilates with Suzanne Vertin for almost 2 years. I've lost over 14 inches and gone from a size 14 to a size 8. She keeps me motivated and keeps each workout intense. Pilates has not only changed my body it has improved my posture and given me a new found confidence! The Naperville Pilates instructors truly care about their students and are dedicated to each and every one.

When I met Suzanne Vertin I was a few pounds shy of 260, I generally hid in the back for group pictures with friends, could not run more than a quarter of a mile, and had never heard of Pilates. Suzanne was an instructor at a local gym and she suggested I give it a try. I tried mat Pilates for a couple years and was fascinated by the fact that with each celebration of a new skill acquired came a challenge to try something else, so my enthusiasm to learn something new in Pilates never waned. Being as heavy as I was I had intermittent back problem and remember buying thermal packs and taking Motrin to alleviate the pain. Pilates changed that, the core strength acquired meant better back support and I haven’t purchased a thermal pack in years. A few months ago Suzanne suggested I try the reformer at the studio; I am thrilled with all the new moves unique to the reformer and have undeniably become a lifetime fan of Pilates. Suzanne’s greatest gift is her ability to motivate and inspire. Under her tutelage I have lost almost 45 pounds, have run a few 5ks, participated in a triathlon and I’m set to compete in my next one in a few months. The journey to health isn’t over, and while I can quantify the cost and time invested, the self-confidence gained is immeasurable and I am so grateful to Suzanne for her inspiration. Recently a girlfriend sent me some pictures from a party I attended, I wasn’t hiding in back, I stood beaming, front and center. Thank you Suzanne!!!

Suzanne has been my Pilates instructor for both reformer and mat classes for 4 years. She keeps the classes fun and challenging by changing the routines up all the time. It's always been difficult for me to find an instructor that will continue to motivate me and push me to the next level before boredom sets in. Pilates with Suzanne has been great for my physical and mental health!

I have been doing Pilates with Suzanne Vertin for about 8 months now and it has seriously changed my life. This is the only type of work out I have ever stuck with, looked forward to, and made time in my busy schedule week after week to attend. Besides ridding myself of all aches and pains I used to have, I have lost inches, I am stronger, I'm becoming more flexible and I feel better about myself than I ever have. Suzanne is extremely motivating and keeps the classes from becoming boring or routine. The studio is great, the equipment is great and the atmosphere is comfortable!

I started Pilates for the first time a little over 2 months ago. Due to several knee operations, an athlectic lifestyle, and old age kicking in, I needed a routine that I was going to be able to continue for years to come. Pilates has been a great addition to my active lifestyle and gives me the strengthening that I needed away from the weight rooms. Shannon is my instructor and she truly takes the time to give you individualized attention and helps you focus on exercises that work best for you. Shannon has worked with me in serveral areas that I didn't even know needed help due to the compensation I have done over the years because of my knees. The difference in the way I sit and walk was almost immediate in the short time I have been working with Shannon. Shannon's approach is also a perfect blend that allows you to be comfortable in the exercises but also motivates you to test and push yourself beyond the time before. Just when you are forgetting to breathe or are losing your form, Shannon is there with a subtle reminder or note of encouragement to get you through to the end. Overall, the entire group at Naperville Pilates is extremely friendly and create a relaxed atmosphere that makes you really enjoy your workouts.
