    Even though I've been to the Archer Pilates Studio several times, technically speaking I've only attended one pole class taught by Melanie of Archer Pilates.

    (side note: I think pole classes taught by Rebekah falls under the business PoleMoves http://www.yelp.com/bi... )

    I'm not gonna lie, I went into Archer Pilates with a bit of pole snobbery having been taking pole consistently for the previous 5 or months or so. But I wanted to take a class with Mary C. and this was her very first time taking pole. I was curious to see how our instructor would handle balancing the lesson plan between the two skill levels.

    Like any good beginner pole class, Melanie started with the basic fireman spin. Melanie worked with Mary on her first spin and after the instructor got Mary practicing on her own, Melanie began assessing what spins I knew. She quickly found one trick that I had yet to know but it was simple enough for my muscle strength ...or lack thereof ;P

    Mary learned how to spin on the pole and I learned a new trick. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it when I learn something new in pole class!

    Pole studios that adjust their class instruction per the students skill levels are WAY better than studios that worry about having to go through the class "levels." It makes me feel like they truly care about teaching their students. I was very pleased with Melanie as an instructor. Plus, it was a total BONUS that Mary and I were the only ones in the class so we had a semi-private lesson! :D

    The reason we only took the one class was because Mary and I switched to attending classes on a different night taught by Rebekah of PoleMoves, but classes are still held at Archer Pilates.

    Yes!  I've found my great love. My real love.  My ridiculous, En-lightning, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love.

    This love is so great that I am willing to block out time on my busy schedule to go and workout for myself!!! Finally, I realize how important it is to make time for me. :)

    Archer Pilates is not only a workout, it is a lifestyle.  I cannot say enough good things about this exercise regimen combining yoga, pilates, ballet, and isometric movements. It sculpts your entire body into the epitome of a woman's body - that of a lean, long ballerina. I can't wait to see all my results! Curvy? Yes, I am! Curvy & Toned here I come!!!  Fella's look out....tsssssss!

    I booked "private sessions" with Melanie (the owner) she  is so amazing!  I highly suggest you book a privates before you throw yourself into a class. Melanie  really focuses on you. You can buy a package of them. Melanie  really paid close attention to my injuries and made me feel so comfortable. She did all kinds of adjustments on the machine so that my poor broken back wouldn't kill me after.

    This ultimate graceful body comes with work! You have to be ready and willing to want this! The classes are quite reasonable & they offer unlimited sessions.. To add to this madness, everyone who takes the class is hot and decked out in adorable workout attire head to toe.  The workouts are extremely difficult and make me want to cry out in anguish every time. It is well worth it!!!!! I love it! I walk out feeling strong and energized!!!

    This studio is beautiful, gorgeous hardwood floors, beautiful art, great energizing colors on the walls and fantastic music!! The staff is super professional and helpful.

    Pole Dancing!! What? That is right a pilates studio with Pole Dancing!!!! Need I say more?.... Want to feel sexy? Build your self esteem, I highly suggest taking these classes.
    I am now taking pole dancing classes here & the instructors are the bomb! I love the music they play and the energy and motivation I feel when I am in class, doesn't feel like a workout feels like a night out dancing with my girls!!!!! LOVE IT!!

    You say I'm crazy? I got your crazy, but even my friends are starting to comment on my body! What a good feeling!

    2 Thumbs up for Archer Pilates! I love this place

    It was my first time pole dancing last night. My coworker brought me here to try this, and it was a lot of fun. The instructor was very nice, and she made the experience very pleasant!!  I just wish the studio was closer to my house. I know alot of my friends are going to want to try this. I'm definitely coming back and bringing them with me :)
