Holly is amazing! I have been going to her for over 4 years now and she has really helped my posture and to strengthen my core. She really listens to her clients and targets exercises to their problem areas. I also had a baby in these past 4 years and believe that continuing Pilates through most of my pregnancy helped both with feeling great throughout my pregnancy and getting back into shape quickly after the birth.

I've only been working with Holly at SYNRG Fitness for a few months. I love her energy and drive which is always focused on helping improve my flexibility and strength while paying attention to me. These Pilates classes are well planned out, fresh and never boring. I love how Holly pushes me to stretch and sweat with purpose! I truly look forward to my sessions with Holly. If you are looking for a Pilates instructor who excels at her art - these are the classes for you! Thank you Holly!

When I first started my sessions with Holly, Pilates was recommended for back problems I was having and to strengthen my core. Needless to say, Pilates has changed me physically for the better. With Holly’s guidance, I feel stronger and more flexible. Pilates has allowed me to continue working in a profession that is brutal on the back. She has transformed me!

Taking Pilates with Romina is an absolute treat. The studio is lovely and in a great location. She provides the right amount of explanation helping you get so much out of each movement, but never feeling overwhelmed with cueing. She is caring and funny and you leave feeling relaxed and looking forward to coming back. Her sessions are an excellent addition to any self-care routine. I always recommend her to everyone!

Since incorporating Pilates into my weekly routine, my back has gotten stronger, my knee lift has improved, and I no longer contend with niggling lower back tension after a long run. Through a circuit of hip opening, back bending, foot correcting, and more – I’m now better able to organize myself during my runs: strong lats, ribs overs hips, and feet underneath me.
