Movement with Jill in Boston

I did my mat Pilates training with Jill and just had a mentoring session as well, and I cannot say enough good things. Jill is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. She teaches the material in a digestible format and always takes the time to make sure her students feel supported and empowered. She’s so genuine, down-to-earth, and truly cares about your growth. My mentor session with her was exactly what I needed to feel prepared and confident for an upcoming audition. Jill was truly meant to do this - so grateful to have learned from her!

Jill is the best!! I was a part of her mat Pilates training this year and learned more than I thought was possible! Even after our in-person section of the training ended she offered to meet up and review my class sequence before auditioning to become a teacher in training. We met for over two hours and she really took the time to give me constructive feedback and work through the flow of my class. If you ever get the chance to learn from Jill you are lucky!!

I had such an incredible experience learning from Jill after taking the mat Pilates certification course. She is such a caring instructor—always making sure each student feels supported. Her teaching style is comprehensive and hands-on, which really helped me understand the material and feel prepared to begin teaching. She takes the time to explain exercise thoroughly and allows students to practice each move, both as an instructor and student. Whether you're brand new to teaching or have prior experience, Jill supports all skill levels and ensures you leave confident in planning and teaching a Pilates class. I’m so grateful to have learned from her and highly recommend her to anyone looking to become a Pilates instructor!

I am currently doing my mat and reformer certification with Jill. She is also mentoring me on the side to help me kick start my Pilates career. I am incredibly lucky to have met Jill while she was teaching at Studio78. She is truly the best—relatable, welcoming, and full of warmth. From the very beginning, she created a supportive environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and learning. She has a special way of breaking things down that makes even the most complex concepts easy to understand. Her passion for Pilates (and mentoring!) really shines through. She’s always willing to help—whether it’s prepping for an audition, giving feedback on a class plan, or answering any random questions. She knows her stuff and I’ve learned so much from her. Jill is creating a truly welcoming Pilates community here in Boston. A space that could’ve easily felt intimidating now feels inspiring, supportive, and empowering. She’s honestly changing the game for anyone looking to take their Pilates to the next level. I’m so grateful to be learning from someone so kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping others grow!

I am currently going through pilates certification for both mat and reformer with Jill as my educator and I do not have enough positive things to say about her. She is full of knowledge and truly cares about her students' success. Her courses push you out of your comfort zone so you're ready to teach and she provides endless support and encouragement in and out of the classroom. I definitely recommend getting your education with her if you're interested in becoming certified or taking her classes for your personal practice. She is truly one of one!

Jill is absolutely amazing!! I am in the process of becoming a mat Pilates instructor and Jill is my educator. She is incredibly informative and has helped me feel more comfortable and confident in my journey. Jill is a wonderful instructor, whether you go to her as a client or to become an instructor you will not be disappointed!

I had always wanted to do Pilates, but didn’t even know where to begin. I started doing private classes with Jill, and am so glad that I have been able to work with her. Jill is an absolute professional in every way, and makes everything very easy to understand. Always a fun time at Movement with Jill!

Jill is an amazing instructor both in skill and in presence. I started taking classes with Jill this past fall and I’m obsessed. She has a strong and motivating presence. She is body and ability positive and always offers modifications without shaming people who might need them. You can tell how passionate she is about this work! 100000/10 would recommend taking a class with her
