Sylvia is the BEST; patient, kind, knowledgeable, inspirational!

Amazing instructors and a warm welcoming atmosphere!

Wonderful staff. Great selection of classes. Expert instructors who care about their clients!

Its a fabulous place to go after a busy day-always worth the effort.

I have been working with Carole for three years, and I have to say, as a college athlete, she understands how Pilates applies to my sport (swimming) and what I can do to improve both in and out of the pool. Since working with her, I have been able to train more effectively and apply so much of what she taught into everything I do. Her cues and exercises are perfectly matched for being a high-achieving athlete. She so clearly understands Pilates and its applications to athletics. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!

I absolutely love my time with everyone at Pilates Core Center. What a blessing it is to take classes in this peaceful place. Everyone should come to pilates class with Sylvia, Martha, Michele, Carol and all the teachers.

I really enjoy coming to work with Jess every week. She pushes me and crafts my sessions for my specific needs.

Going to my Pilates Reformer class gives me an hour for myself, which is rare these days! Sylvia creates a peaceful but challenging workout.

Really professional experience

That work with the wooden disks was HARD, but challenging and, I'm sure, worth it. Thanks, Sylvia!

We all love Sylvia, but I now know how fabulous the other teachers are as well. I love the studio; it is a place in which I can pray through body movement. The body is the Dwelling Place of the Holy Spirit, and Pilates Core Center is my Ashram. Come and join us!!!

The Pilates and TRX workouts are excellent! The instructors are very knowledgeable and work closely with you to make sure you get the most out of each class.

First time practicing Pilates. Had a great session with Jessica!

Love my Pilates Coe center

I take a private class with master teacher, Carole. She is a skilled, knowledgeable professional and I would recommend her ten fold. Pilates is hard work, but it is wonderful. Rita P. of Cherry Hill

ANOTHER great session - thanks, Sylvia!

Pilates Core Center is terrific. The classes are excellent, the instructors are very knowledgeable and pay close attention to detail and there is always a very welcoming atmosphere.

Always a beautiful experience. Enjoy recharging my spirit here. Yoga with crystal bowls and Tea with the Angels are two of my favorites!

Great place to work on improving the mind/body issues that grow with age. An extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly.

Great as always!

My instructor spent time getting to understand me, my health issues and goals for Pilates training. The facility is warm and inviting and so are the staff.

Sylvia and Martha are amazing. I loved my one-on-one session with Michelle B. Thank you for providing body prayer time.

I can honestly say that Pilates Core Center first priority is that it hat takes into consideration the feelings and thoughts of your students.Thanks so much!!!! Kay Rosenberg

I have been attending Pilates Core Center for several years now. All of the instructors are clear, concerned about preventing injuries, and challenging. I have taken Reformer, Mat, and private lessons there as well as some yoga and other classes. The website works well for scheduling and very informative. I have attended other Pilates centers, and none can hold a candle to Pilates Core Center.

So excited to getting back to classes with Sylvia and my classmates. Thanking God for body prayer time.

Excellent!

Serene environment with knowledgeable instructors.

It's a great facility and the Reformer machines are marvels of technology. Every workout is a challenge that produces visible results.

Thank you for a truly remarkable experience. I love the classes so much it is hard to explain.

I look forward to my sessions with Carole swift Gorman. She is a pro Rita polonsky

Pilates Core Center offers knowledgeable instructors in a very accepting, homey atmosphere. Sylvia is a great source of information as well as a great person. If you are a student or training to be an instructor, I highly recommend this studio.

Life changing! Can't do without Jess and Sylvia! Thanks!

A beautiful studio with a knowledgeable and friendly staff.

I enjoy the variety of classes offered and the exceptional instructors! So happy I joined.

Love this place! Classes are affordable and easy to schedule. The instructors are experienced and wonderful. The atmosphere is calming.

Jess is a pleasure to work with. She is patient, enthusiastic & encouraging. I love coming to pilates every week!

I love that my parishioners are noticing the effect of the exercise on my shape. I see the change in my breathing and lower blood pressure. Thanking God for body prayer time with you.

Great!

Love this place, great classes, very friendly and inviting place to be after a long day at work.

I enjoy the staff and the classes. They have help keep my muscles and body flexible and strengthen my balance allow me to move better

I've been enjoying every class I've taken at Pilates core Center for the past 7 years.

so far my experience has been wonderful . They are accommodating, they are professional . Its not intimidating. Its clean. Everyone is friendly. Its a very embracing place to go to.

Great - as always!

If you're looking for an atmosphere that will allow you to focus on Yourself, YOUR workout, then this is the place! Walking into PCC you will feel the energy among the staff as well as the clients coming and going to their workout rooms. There isn't a sad face around! Always laughter and full of positive energy, it's like being welcomed into another world. If you can't find your happy place here, then I don't what you're looking for.

great class with Jess on discs today!!

Absolutely love Sylvia and all the staff. I am grateful for the time we can spend in body-prayer at PCC. What a blessing. Cheers

Excellent teachers, well constructed classes. A beautiful , positive environment, this studio has a comprehensive program, great equipment, is well maintained and offers a pleasant atmosphere.

I love the welcoming atmosphere. PC2 is a beautiful space with supportive staff to assist no matter where you are. I have experienced improvements in my posture and body awareness which has helped me in my horseback riding .

The staff are wonderful and the teachers are superb. Sylvia's care of and attention to each student is exceptional. Praying for even greater success for this wonderful gym, the teachers and each of the marvelous people who take classes with me. Blessings

Fabulous, fantastic, phenomenal!! Changed my life!! Michelle Bozzini is unbelievable!! Everyone is wonderful!! Can't say enough about my experience!!

Melissa is an awesome teacher. She makes the class fun and engaging while giving you quite a workout.

Great Pilates classes and the equipment is top-shelf. Sylvia is an AMAZING instructor!

Love the Pilates reformer class. Sylvia is such a great teacher and mixes it up so it's never boring and she has a calming effect. One suggestion, when saying 'don't do this' please add 'do this instead' - tell us how to fix what we're doing wrong. Like 'don't let the reformer move' - tell how to not move it (e.g. tighten your abs). Great place!

I have been going to Pilates Core Center for several years now and can't say enough good things about it. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and continue to surprise me with new routines weekly, never boring! They also couldn't be nicer and always ready to help you. HIGHLY recommend this place for beginners to experts.

I appreciate the level & expertise of my teacher Rita P

Pilates Core Center has an amazing offering of classes and the entire staff is so qualified. I love the opportunity to choose a one on one session to work on more specific areas from time to time.

After a year of Pilates at Pilates Core Center I feel better all over.. The mat classes have increased the strength in my back and shoulders, significantly reducing my migraines. I recommend Pilates Core Center to anyone who wants to improve their overall health.

The open house was great. I enjoyed the show (and the opportunity to see some of the non-reformer equipment in use). Thanks to Olga for the great massage! My only classes have been reformer, once with Olga and the balance with Sylvia. I had never met any of the other instructors nor even knew who they were - it would have been nice to have a formal introduction prior to the presentations.

Top quality education.. Warm and humble environment... Positive experience from A to Z. Left there with a ton of knowledge. Thanks for your hospitality.

Pilates Core Center teachers foster a supportive environment for their students. My experience with Balanced Body training courses at the studio has been met with a concern for my continued growth.

What a fun and wonderful weekend of Pilates. The studio space is clean and organized so a pleasure to work and learn in.

Excellent instructors, organized and helpful staff, wonderful place to take Pilates and Yoga!

I had taken a Reformer certification class with Sylvia. I felt I had excellent instruction- the staff is very knowledgeable and personable. I would highly recommend The Pilates Core Center.

GREAT class!!!

It is fantastic!! From the moment you enter until the moment you leave, professionalism, kindness, and skill abound!! Michelle Bozzini has helped me so much. It has increased my mobility, my stability, and my flexibility! I, wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.

I just had my yearly checkup after taking mat classes for a year. My muscle imbalance from scoliosis has decreased, my fibromyalgia pain has decreased and I am getting fewer migraines. Overall, I just feel better. The classes are great, with a balance of strengthening and stretching. There is constant variety, with knowledgeable teachers that really put thought into the progression of movements from easy to challenging. Most of all, I really enjoy coming to Pilates Core Center.

I loved my experience for Pilates Mat training! Everyone was so welcoming working here, Jessica is a fantastic teacher and fun to be around. I've learned so much and I'm excited to take more classes!!

My favorite place to end my day, almost every week day! It's like "Cheers", where everyone knows your name. Love the instructors, love the amazing people in my classes and especially love the energy of the space. It's a practice that is so worth the time and effort each and every time I go.

You leave feeling as if you have done something wonderful for yourself!

8 years of private sessions with Sylvia and the results, intuitiveness and expertise simply keep growing. One of the most important hours of my week.

The classes and instructors are great. Everyone is friendly and accommodating. I really like coming here. Would be nice to have more classes of the same type that are usually fully booked scheduled back-to-back, so more people can attend. One example is a Reformer class Saturday morning at 9 am. I often can't sign up because there is no space. If there was another Reformer class at 10 am, I am sure it will get many attendees.

Currently due to some imbalances in my body I am doing private session with Jessica. Her knowledge of anatomy and core exercises to rebalance my body are excellent. I have gone to Physical Therapy for issues in the past but find the one to one attention in a private session with Jessica far better. Additionally, I have been taking classes and privates at the Pilates Core Center for more than a decade. I have enjoyed a wide variety of their class offerings and multiple instructors.

Great as always. Thanks, Sylvia!

I live Pilates Core Center and exercising with Jess on Monday and Friday mornings.

A wonderful studio. Wonderful and caring instructors and staff!! It is a unique combination of expertly trained instructors who actually care about their clients' well being. So happy I found them 4 years ago!!

Love this place!

I LOVE Sylvia's Pilates Reformer classes. Always different from week to week, along with inclusion of various "toys." Lots of great stretches and challenges.

The classes at Pilates Core Center never disappoint. It is always the perfect blend of an awesome workout and a mental vacation mixed with a massage for the soul. Amazing!

I thank the Pilates Core Center of offering a Friday morning meditation and conversation session with Frank. Frank is not only intelligent and compassionate, he sincerely offers his services, at no fee. Thank you Pilates Core Center for providing Frank with space and time. Sincerely, Rita K.

The quality of the yoga instructors is superb. They are expert practitioners and teachers. They care deeply about their students' well being and development. The facility is well conceived and reflects a belief in a variety of ways in which students can reach their goal for improved spiritual, mental and physical well-being. You can practice yoga, Pilates, meditation, etc. One cannot ask for more than great and caring instructors sharing their expertise with students in a great environment. I give my Pilates Core Center my highest recommendation.

I truly like all the staff and instructors in the center. Feels like family.

excellent instructors and classes!

I love everything here!

Pilates Core Center is awesome. Jessica helped me build core strength and Pilates is now becoming a part of my lifestyle. Pilates Core Center made a positive impact on my life.

I really enjoyed the Tea with Angels class led by Kristy. It was interesting and enlightening, and I learned a lot about the current angel they were talking about that day. It was the first time I attended.

Love the Pilates Center!!!

Everyone is pleasant and very helpful. Both Jesse and Lisa were great instructors. I feel I am a member of a family.

Always a super experience the staff is always perfect

Enjoyable , enlightening and inspiring is the best way to describe my experience having Sylvia as a teacher of the many certifications and most recent spine workshop I attended!! Can't wait till I can attend and learn more! With gratitude for all she does!

Fantastic instructors in a warm, relaxing, friendly environment.

I found out about Pilates Core Center via the internet and was convinced to try by the reviews. This was my first experience with Pilates and a personal trainer. I was very impressed with the space and the service I received. I would recommend them to anyone.

The Pilates Reformer class led by Sylvia is fabulous! A great workout for your body and a calming one for your soul!

I can not say enough about Pilates Core Center, everyone there is so professional and helpful and friendly. It is one of my favorite places to be!

Singing bowl yoga class with Olga is GREAT! Everyone should try it. I'd go every week if was offered! Olga also gives the best massages.

Pilates Core Center has excellent instructors.

I only wish that there were more classes at 4:30 (or even 5:00). I work nearby til 4:00 (but don't live close) and my calendar is so erratic that it is hard to schedule regular classes. Sylvia was great in our Reformer class - very attentive to what the students wanted and needed, and always walking around to assist.

It's always easy being at Pilates Core Center! I enjoy the yoga classes, crystal bowls and Tea with the Angels :)

Excellent trainers Friendly ambience

Love my whole experience!

Reformer - I've taken 7 classes w/Lori Weiner & various staff @ Pilates Plus Restoration, 15 classes w/Gerlinde @ The Pilates Zone & 3 privates w/Eileen at Cherry Hill Health & Racquet Club. Today's class w/Sylvia was equal to or better than any of the others I've taken. Thanks, Sylvia (although I'll be cursing you, tomorrow, when I'm all stiff/sore)! I will DEFINITELY be back (plan to purchase a 10-session Reformer package) - the 4:30 class is the best time for me, but I don't want to wait till October, so will be starting sooner with a 5:00 p.m. class.

Fabulous place!

Love Love my classes

Your teachers are the best!!!! Your classes are fantastic!!! My body has changed so much since I began working out at your studio. I am so much stronger, more flexible, more toned and I have my younger looking shape back.

Pilates Core Center and their Instructors are wonderful. They are very knowable in their training to help you do the best that your can. Where would I be without them? Love Love the place.

Beyond expectations, my experience with private sessions has improved my overall health. It is great for balance and core strength.

Pilates Core Center is my happy place. The owners and staff are superb and the environment and atmosphere they create inspire us all to be more physical and listen to our bodies.

I love PC2

Svetlana is an amazing trainer. My daughter loves her ability to incorporate pilates and ballet. She knows what dancers need to perform at their best.

Everyone needs to try the Core Align. You will love it!

careful and attentive instruction Always varied and appropriate and FUN!

Great instructors Lovely ambience Very friendly.

I love Pilates Core Center, everyone that works there is very friendly, helpful and VERY good at their jobs. I look forward to going- at least twice a week.

I love my classes and enjoy the benefits that I receive from them.

Excellent instructors And all the support team!

Warm wonderful place to learn proper Pilate form.

Love coming here. Everyone is pleasant, the classes are great and it has a nice atmosphere. Wish I had the time to workout more often.

You gals are amazing my back is so much better......

Excellent classes and instructors!

The teacher was knowledgeable and the class was exactly what I need to help keep my body in alignment.

Your staff is dedicated and invested in all of their students. They individualize the practice to address each and everyone on a one on one basis; this is very unique in today's world. The class was everything I needed for my practice. Thank you!

The evening's event was terrific. Check in was very fast and friendly. Seating was spacious. The event was not over booked but most likely could have been. The feeling in the facility was very peaceful.

It was an excellent Reformer Class with a very very good Pilates Instructor ~~~ I always appreciate being challenged with different Reformer exercises and movements bc it keeps the Class fresh and challenges that mind body connection ~~~ I also appreciate that the instructor gave us different spring options to modify down or up ~~~ Everybody is at different levels after all!!!!!!

I love coming to PC2. It's changed the way I see my own fitness - my only regret is my changing schedule that often means I miss class. The instructors are wonderful - enthusiastic, knowledgeable, supportive and encouraging - which goes a long way to making me want to continue, push myself and get healthier. The atmosphere is warm and personal, and it's a pleasure to come here and meet friends and enjoy class together. It feels like an "anti-gym" experience€¦challenging and varied, but with no egos and no shaming. Body acceptance in a lovely environment to learn and grow physically.

Very moving, beautiful energy filled the room.

Great instructors, great ambiance, good vibes

Love, love, love PCC!!

Warm, caring and friendly staff. Very professional. Instructors are experts in their discipline and provide personal feedback. Great results - I feel and look better than I have in years! Wonderful place!

I love Sylvia. She has a way of not only giving the info but making it stick. Love love love

It was awesome Lisa and Olga are the best thank you.

In attempt to try and keep this as short and sweet as possible I will just say that I don't mind driving 6 miles from Philadelphia to Cherry Hill to see all the wonderful faces and incredible staff at Pilates Core Center. Everyone is so gracious, accommodating, thoughtful and knowledgeable. Pilates Core Center you are a gem and by far MY FAVORITE way to spend an hour of my week.

I love coming to Pilates Core Center! Everyone there is very friendly and helpful. My lower back started bothering me a number of years ago but coming here has helped me strengthen my core, lower back and whole body. Love, love, love Pilates Core Center!

Wonderful experience

Best of the best of the best

Carole Swift is an excellent Pilates teacher.

Love the studio. Teachers are wonderful and have great soundtracks.

The instructors are excellent. The facility is clean and neat. The equipment is plentiful and well maintained. Overall, the classes are wonderful!

Pilates Core Center is the best place to exercise. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and caring. They work you really hard and make sure that you are taking care of yourself properly the entire time. They adjust the exercises to your needs and help you get the most out of each workout.

I love Pilates Core Center, as the instructors are so knowledgeable and patient in their teaching. Not to mention the warmth that is shown by all of the staff. I travel a distance to come to this studio, and it is well worth it! A+ from me!

The Pilates Core Center responded to my inquiry immediately and made me feel very welcome. The center is exceptionally clean and well organized. Now I understand why it is rated the best.

Beautiful facility. Silvia is the best. She is a patient, knowledgeable instructor. The training she provided was excellent.

I love Pilates Core! The only classes I took before I came there were at a woman's home with a group of women- I had only done matt pilates and prefer that. At PC I have found a home and lots of different classes so I never get bored. Its been almost 2 years and I am so glad I found them!

This studio commands perfection of form. It breaks reformer classes into basic skills, emphasis on breathing.

The reformer class I take on Tuesday Evening is the highlight of my week!

The best thing that every happen for my back....what took me so long

Great classes at Pilates Core Center and great instructors!

A wonderful workout from the tip of my head to the tips of my toes. I feel great!

Excellent staff and classes. Professional and expert instructors who care. I have recommended Pilates Core Center to many friends.

Sylvia's classes are always the best- great workout, calms my mind & she is constantly making sure that each student is demonstrating correct form in order to get the most out of each exercise & prevent possible injury. Love this class!

Excellent studio with very experienced and excellent instructors. Quite a variety of class offerings. I love it and high recommend Pilates Core Center. Happy New Year, Lucille Cavan

This studio is my home away from home! Great instructors, great clients.

When I walk out of class I feel as if I have done something really special for myself!

Always a warm welcome and great classes. Love the challenge classes.

I absolutely love Pilates Core Center!!

I started Core center about s year ago with massage and personal exercise sessions with Olga. Then started regular yoga classes and soon after Barre exercise classes . . It has helped my lower back problems greatly . It is a beautiful peaceful friendly energetic therapeutic place to be.

A gem of a place! The classes are excellent. The instructors are very highly trained and incredibly knowledgeable. They are also supportive and motivating. The staff are warm and friendly. You always feel welcome and like part of the family.

Wonderful, knowledgeable staff, calming atmosphere. I love taking classes here.

The best place in the area to go for Pilates. The staff is very friendly and the place is very organized in how they run their business!! The trainer Carol is a stickler for getting everything just right. The place to go if you want to learn it correctly!!

Love the instructors! Everyone is professional as well as caring All the staff are efficient and respectful as well as friendly. The other "students" are all devoted to achieving excellence Of course with the aid of our great "teachers"

Feels like home

The classes are excellent and the instruction is fantastic. Everyone is so friendly. I love exercising at Pilates core center

I live for my reformer class on Tuesday evenings. It not only relaxes me I walk out energized as well.

Absolutely the best instructors!

I loved the Numerology class I attended. Traci was amazing and explained everything very clearly as we navigated our own number chart. I've already shared with friends about this awesome class & comfortable, clean facilities.

I have been coming to events at Pilates Core Center for many years, and the Fall Festival was truly an enjoyable experience. It was small enough where it wasn't overwhelming, unlike other events of this nature that are loud with too many people packed in one place. In one room were vendors who sold homemade candles, jewelry, purses and numerology readings. It was only $5 to get in and with admission you received a free class for coming, which they advertised was a $15 value. Since I attend the center regularly, this was a great value to me. I have also been attending psychic fairs of this nature at the center. I liked that there was advance scheduling, so I didn't have to go there all day and wait my turn and then be put with a reader I didn't enjoy. For this festival the readings were a little more expensive, but that is because they are now longer, and more time could be spent with each reader. In events prior, they were a little rushed at 15 minutes, so this was a nice change. I enjoyed the venue very much and my reading was great!

I really like the psychic fairs that are put on by Connection Beyond. I have been to many in the area, but the ones at your center are a lot of fun because they include vendors, and there is more to do than other ones. Most of the other ones include food with admission, but that's it. At one of the events was a crystal vendor who was not there this time. I hope he returns. Marisa was reading at this event as well, which was really nice. I haven't seen her read at one of these events before. I wanted a reading but she was booked for the day. Perhaps they can offer advance scheduling with her next time, as this time she was not an option on the schedule. You had to call in to make an appointment. There was also one reader who was advertised that was not there, but was sick. I hope to meet her next time. Looking forward to coming again,

The instructors demonstrate an excellent knowledge base. There are Springboards, Stability Balls, bands, blocks and anything else you would need. The equipment is top quality. For example, the mats are true Pilates mats: extra thick, clean and in excellent condition. Another example: the reformers are in excellent condition with "green springs", an option not usually available elsewhere. In addition, there is specialize equipment available for an individualized focus such as Cadillac reformers and Core Align equipment. Put all this together in a friendly atmosphere and this is a great place to get an incredibly good workout.

Staff were friendly and thoughtful!

Couldn't be happier, luv it

From the moment I walked in the door almost two years ago I felt welcome at Pilates Core. Everyone feels comfortable there, all ages, all sizes, we work hard and have a lot of fun taking care of ourselves inside and out. I highly recommend Pilates Core for body and soul!

The sessions at the Pilates Core Center in Medford were really great. The instructors were very well versed in their field and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone. Well done!

Terrific instructors, challenging classes, good class times in a positive atmosphere. You rock! All the best, Lucille

I give Pilates Core Center a 5 star review. I love the studio, the teachers and the participants. It's a great place to learn, practice and try new things.

Melissa is a great instructor and I enjoyed the session. I live in Medford and miss the evening sessions held there. Having 2 school-aged children it is often difficult to travel out to Cherry Hill to attend. I look forward to the reinstatement of evening classes in Medford.

I discovered Pilates Core Center about a year ago and it is now an important part of my life. I started with massage therapy and personal exercise sessions for a low back problem and now attend yoga , pilates and barre classes weekly. It is very special "me" time. The surroundings are beautiful and the instructors are professional and caring. It will transform you.

Awesome/inspired

Wonderful workout by a wonderful staff! The environment is clean, serene and peaceful. So you can let your thoughts go and concentrate on an excellent workout. The instructors are well trained and take a very positive approach. No other studio in the area compares!

Love Carol and think she is an unbelievable trainer. Pilates has made a tremendous difference in my life.

Personnel - Professional, courteous and knowledgeable Rooms - clean and organized

Love the people and the classes!

Nice place to take classes. Prices are a little on the high side.

Diane and Sylvia have created a magical environment at Pilates Core Center. The instructors are gifted and make every session a tremendous experience. I think my work-outs are the only times I am truly thinking of nothing but that specific moment in time- making the most of every breath and move. I am proud to be student at the center - its one of my very favorite things in the whole wide world.
