Synergy Fitness Pilates Studio

I joined the Synergy Fitness Pilates studio just over a year ago following a serious back injury. I was attracted by the philosophy of the studio, which emphasizes rehabilitation and fitness through an individualized program tailored to one?s personal needs and goals. It gave me immediate confidence to begin work with Rebecca D?Amour, who is a certified master trainer with more than a dozen years of experience, as well as a gifted instructor and a creative, sympathetic healer. The rest of the staff is also wonderfully professional and dedicated, and I find the studio atmosphere friendly and positive. Through the application of intense, focused movements to enhance core strength, flexibility and balance, I?ve seen a dramatic improvement both in my back injury and my general physical health. And, a nice bonus has been the way my body has become noticeably leaner and more sculpted. Whether your goal is to recover from illness/injury or to lose weight and feel great, I cannot recommend Synergy Fitness too highly. more

I am in the process of completing my pilates teacher training at Synergy Fitness and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to increase their body knowledge and practice. This program is ideal for people who have an interest in teaching pilates to a broad range of clients. The staff is great, the facilities are conveniently located on Solano Ave. in Albany, and the studio has an a very welcoming atmosphere. In addition to the teacher training programs, Synergy offers private and semi-private pilates sessions, mat and reformer classes, workshops, and a new boot camp program to help people reach their fitness goals. You should definitely go check them out! 510 527 9005 Pros: beautiful studio, fun and friendly staff Cons: not yet open on weekends more
