Mara Core Conditioning in Newton

Both my husband and I have been taking Pilates lessons with Mara for a while and Highly recommend her! She is super professional, have an in depth knowledge of Pilates and other movement type methods. She is also super helpful in situations of specific injuries/sensitivities. Mara is also fun and engaging in her teaching style, being able to pay individual attention even when working in groups.

MCC is offering both in-person and virtual classes as of 10/6/2020. Love this studio because Mara's method is effective. Seeing how long-term students are doing under her instruction is really motivating, too. Here is my experience with the in-studio sessions in the past couple weeks. I've been there for private, duet, and duet+ sessions. Face covering was required, gloves were optional. Patrons wash their hands before and after using the studio, and sanitize the apparatus, equipment, and etc. if used. Instructors sanitize the whole space in between sessions. When I was there for a duet+ session with a pilates partner, we did not share space/apparatus. We occupied separate corners of the studio and used designated equipments. Felt safe.

The Zoom classes are great! Mara carefully watches form and gives good feedback. Her instruction, energy and skill make the class fun and incredibly beneficial. I look forward to Saturday mornings!

I highly recommend Mara Core Conditioning. Pilates instructor Alyse has helped me alleviate some pretty bad neck and back pain and I now feel stronger, more toned and aligned since working with her. I've also worked with Mara (the owner) and both she and Alyse do a wonderful job educating their clients on the body and how to continuously engage your core during daily activities. The studio is well-equipped, with ample parking. If you are seeking an effective workout routine and/or looking for personalized attention due to an injury or other condition, I highly recommend checking out Mara Core Conditioning.

These are small group classes that teach all of the Pilates principles on floor mats.

Mara Core Conditioning is an outstanding Pilates Studio in Newton Four Corners near Whole Foods. Mara is an expert instructor, very skillful and patient. She has recently become certified in Gyrotonics. She helps build balance and flexibility. I highly recommend this fine studio.
