Elevation pilates has changed my life. About two years ago my back pain was so bad I could hardly move some days. I had tried everything – physical therapy, massage, chiropractor – but nothing worked. I was ready to try injections when a friend suggested Pilates. So I figured, what do I have to lose. One of the best decisions I have ever made. My back feels so much better, I feel stronger than ever, and I’ve had the motivation and endurance for new things. I’m now more than halfway through climbing the 46 Adirondack High Peaks, something I couldn’t have even imagined before Pilates with Kathy Porcell. Don’t give up on yourself. Give Pilates a try. It’s so worth it.

Kathy has changed my life.  Two years ago I realized I had kind of stopped trying. I just couldn’t find a health routine that I enjoyed and worked for me. I’m healthier, longer, leaner, happier and very grateful. Thank you Kathy and Elevation Pilates.

I have had 2 total hip replacements with in the last 5 months. I spent 6 weeks at physical therapy for my first and didn’t truly feel like I was healing and making progress until I met Kathy. She has taken unbelievably good care of me, and my new joints. This time I started Pilates 2 weeks after my THR and feel that not only because she helped me be stronger going into surgery but because of the different moves my strength and range of motion increases dramatically daily, even my physical therapist notices this time. Highly recommend these classes to anyone who wants to be strong, fit and agile. Amazing feeling! Thank you Kathy! You know how much I appreciate you!!
