Since working with Noelle, I look better, feel stronger and I am standing taller…my posture has really improved. Her spunky personality keeps me motivated and her constant encouragement keeps me focused and on track. I have had great success with her instruction and would recommend her highly to anyone.

I'm so happy my physical therapist prescribed Pilates at Simpatico. In one month, my pain has lessened, my flexibility has improved and I enjoy working out again.
--Tom Ruiz |
Pilates is the best toning, tightening and stretching exercise I've ever done. It is non-impact and truly makes me feel better and better. I have a bad left knee and a weak lower back. Doing the proper stretching with an experienced, qualified teacher enables me to enjoy every aspect of Pilates. I leave my sessions feeling pain free and toned. I also always look forward to my next session. The instructors at Simpatico have all the knowledge, form, and discipline to help all of their students, at any level. I have worked with them and look forward to each session. Each time I feel as though I've learned something new and interesting. My clothes fit better, I fell much better and I feel that I really look better. Simpatico is a great studio. It's a happy place to be. I'm a true fan.

Pilates has widdled down my waist and has reduced my ‘snakes' (love handles or waistline); my midsection has reduced. Doing Pilates with at Simpatico with Noelle has truly dissolved 2-3 inches from my waist and has flattened my stomach. After a session with Noelle, I feel a sense of elongation; I feel taller after doing Pilates. All the ‘engaging' involved in the Pilates mat work has crossed over into my daily activities and I find myself more aware of my body alignment and posture. In just weeks of starting Pilates, I felt my posture and flexibility improve. I really feel my lymphatic system working and pumping, helping to increase my circulation. Pilates makes me feel so energized and so full of life. Pilates has really toned my whole upper body, especially my arms, yet without the bulk and cuts. I feel toned yet still feminine. Noelle's constant ability and curiosity to improve her skills and techniques is impressive and reassuring, and has proven invaluable for me to get the best results possible. I never feel sore or stiff after doing Pilates. I'm virtually pain free, unlike other workouts that left me sore and stiff, even injured.

I've trained in London, New York and Sydney, and Simpatico's techniques are by far the best I've ever had in Pilates.

I've been plagued with lower back problems for years and since working with Noelle in Pilates the last three years, I've virtually had no problems whatsoever. My flexibility has improved tremendously; my whole body has toned up, especially my hips and tummy. I LOVE Pilates. Doing Pilates with Noelle has totally re-shaped my body. My clothes fit better, and my hips and torso have really slimmed down.

I am a 62 year old male, formerly very active in sport. Seven years ago a series of cumulative sporting accidents resulted in serious back injuries necessitating an operation. This severely restricted my recreational activities, resulting in weight gain, and a loss of a lot of flexibility and movement, despite a regular supervised weight-training program.
Then two years ago I began Pilates training with Noelle Stumpf three times a week. Wow, what a change. Pilate's has resulted in greater flexibility and balance. Gone are the severe back pains after exercise, and to my amazement I have gained back over one inch in height.
If you want to be fit, flexible and strong without the risk of bulking up with weight training, plus protect and strengthen your back at the same time, I have proved Pilates at Simpatico is the way to go.

I never recognized the importance of focusing on my abdomen muscles and centering my mind when doing many of the stomach muscle oriented exercises. Oh my God! I thought Pilates was for women and sissies. I have never had such a thorough workout in my life.
My flexibility at age 67 is now much greater than it was in my forties, thanks to my involvement with Pilates. I leave Pilates studio with such a high.
-- Bob Veloz |
Having come to Pilates from free weight training and aerobics, I find working on my core structure and body awareness to be most helpful. I am now much more flexible, coordinated, and fluid in my posture and movement. Mat work has been such an important component of my training. Thank you Simpatico.
Entering my 60's is a mind-boggling experience! My Pilates training enables my exterior self to retain the same youthfulness I experience inwardly. My significant other recently stated, "You need to talk to your doctor about ‘arrested aging'. What a problem to have. I feel that my work with the Pilates method has contributed vastly to my youthful appearance.

I am not a person who loves exercise, typically. But after training with Noelle, I have changed my mind. I look forward to my twice a week sessions. Her knowledge on the subject, her patience in teaching it, and her upbeat attitude make it such a pleasure to do Pilates. I recommend Simpatico to all my friends and cannot say enough good things about the studio. I have seen a big difference in my flexibility, strength, and posture since working with her.
-- Jennifer Smith Hale |
My exercise routine over the past 15 years has run the gamut from yoga to weighlifting but after taking Pilates instructions from Noelle, I feel as if Pilates is something I could never do without. Noelle is wonderfully adept at communicating. She enables you to visualize exactly how to derive maximum benefits from each Pilates exercise. Pilates is such a spiritually and physically uplifting experience. It has become an addiction.

I would have a lower back episode at least once a month. Now that I practice Pilates at Simpatico, I never have a back problem.

Simpatico is the best Pilates studio I have ever attended! The girls are fun, professional, focused and very well trained in their craft as well as rehab. I get a great workout and I'm a tough cookie. I would recommend this studio to anyone who really wants la crème de la crème!
I hate exercise. I have a bad back. I have asthma. And I'm crazy for pilates at Simpatico. Their one-on-one expert coaching is tailored to the individuals needs. If you want to stay fit (or find the figure you lost), make tracks at Simpatico. You'll enjoy yourself. Truly!

Noelle is a constant inspiration. I find her energy and expertise invaluable. She is the best trainer I've ever worked with.
-- Laurel Barrack |
Noelle has the unique ability of making sense and fun out of what could otherwise be a tedious and regimental exercise discipline. You could create a whole cottage industry out of Noelle.
