Blue Sky Pilates

My beginning group Pilates classes with Kellie are the absolute best exercises classes I have ever taken. Pilates is the perfect exercise to help come out of the COVID coma and Blue Sky Pilates has all top of line equipment. Kellie is the best teacher for beginners like me. My private class with Carol was also excellent! The people in the group classes are great! It is a great workout and fun as well!

All the instructors keep me aligned and motivated. They pace the class very well for each level. I'm impressed.

I have worked with many pilates instructors and several studios in the area. Kelly, the owner, does a great job choosing excellent instructors. She is organized and has a beautiful studio. I have had back problems and this is the only exercise I can take and receive a both great strength and flexibility training. There are also classes that offer cardio work on the step board.

Blue Sky Pilates is where body mechanics and body wisdom meet. I work with Laura. She mixes vast knowledge with exceptional talent to create change. For me, that means less pain and more freedom of movement.

Classes are excellent at Blue Sky Pilates. Kellie gives great guidance and prompts you through the routines, keeps it fun and fresh and always makes sure she gives 110% in every session. Pilates is part of my weekly routine and I am stronger, more fit and am reaching goals I never could before. Try Pilates if you want to see real change. You will not be disappointed.

I started with Kellie about 3 years ago. I had had 2 back surgery's and just gotten over a flare. I had been told time and time again from doctors and physical therapists, that strengthening my core was key. I drove by her studio everyday and finally decided to give her a call. Exercise has never been my favorite thing. I don't get those happy, excitement endorphin's, and I don't sleep better at night, so finding something that I enjoy, an instructor that motivates me and something that I can see my money working for me is very important. I have tried personal trainers over the years and have never lasted with one longer than a year, but I have been with Kellie for 3 now and will keep her as long as she will have me!I definitely wish I could afford to go more than 1 time a week, but I did get a gym membership locally and get in cardio work or other class work 2-3 times a week, but none of them give the core direction like her class. I say this because before seeing Kellie my back would flare up 4+ times a year and 1-2 of those I could be flat on my back for 3-5 days. During the time I have spent with Kellie, I have really only had 1-2 flare-ups a year and none of them have had me flat on my back. I don't know that I will ever be a fully advanced student in her class but every time I go, there is something that I pat myself on my back for accomplishing; that I couldn't do a year, a month or a week before. I am also more aware of my body and what feels right and wrong and for that I am truly thankful!

Kelli Loomis, Thank you for being patient with me and encouraging me to continue.My injuries were such that I could not go on my daily walks, sit for long, or sleep through the night. Just after two months, Blue Sky Pilates has given me the tools that I need to start feeling myself again. After each session, I feel like I have had the best massage that stays with you all week. I feel stronger and more limber. Now I am walking taller enjoying this beautiful Fall weather.

I have been looking for a Pilates studio near me here in Cary - I am totally new to Pilates. After checking out a few websites, I decided to try Blue Sky Pilates - there was a nice intro special so that drew me in, along with the easy online scheduling. Kellie is very patient and encouraging. She adjusted the exercises based on my abilities, and always checked to ensure I was doing ok. She encouraged me to keep going, and I was always comfortable. The day after my first visit, she sent an email asking me how I was doing - not that is customer service!!I've gone twice now and when I leave, I feel elated, taller, and my body feels more relaxed (yes, it's a workout when you're doing it - but it's a great feeling after).The studio is cozy and inviting as well, with bottled water in a fridge, cubbies for your stuff, its own restroom, and a nice place to sit. Compared to what I saw at other studios, I think the prices are fair and reasonable as well.

For several years now as I have been approaching middle age, with the typical increase in general “aches and pains,” I have been telling myself that I really should take a Pilates class to limber up and stay mobile. However, it wasn’t until I fell off a ladder and hurt my back that I got serious about it and signed up for the Beginner class at Blue Sky Pilates. As a total novice to any type of regular exercise routine, I wasn’t sure what to expect -- but after 2 months of a weekly workout, I can say that I LOVE my Pilates class. Blue Sky Pilates is a friendly, non-intimidating place to get started on stretching and strengthening your whole body, and perhaps discovering muscle groups you don’t even know you have ! Groups are small (maximum 5 students) and classes at various levels are conveniently scheduled throughout the week. Kelli is obviously an expert in the field and manages to pay individualized attention to the physical strengths and/or weaknesses of each member of the class, all while keeping us moving together as a group. She also does a great job of mixing up the sessions so that each week is not simply a repetition of the previous week’s class. I usually can’t believe it’s been at it a whole hour when she says “and we’re done for today!” Knowing that many of her students have busy schedules that don’t permit more than once a week classes, Kelli also is very helpful in “prescribing” at-home exercises and stretches that keep her students moving in-between their class times. In just the short time that I have been working with Kelli, I catch myself thinking about how I’m standing/sitting/walking throughout each day, with a significant improvement in how I generally feel, even on days when I spend a lot of time at my desk. Blue Sky Pilates is definitely a treasure among the various mass-marketed exercise studios in the area. Check it out !

Kellie is absolutely the BEST teacher ever! I was skeptical for years about Pilates, thinking it was too slow, not a good workout, etc., but after taking sessions with Kellie and feeling the difference in core strength and flexibility, I am a believer. My husband, an avid cyclist and amateur racer, believed Pilates was a gimmick until I convinced him to try 2 sessions with Kellie. Now he is 100% on board saying he has never felt better. I've taken Pilates from other teachers, but none of the others have Kellie's natural teaching gift. She is motivating, explains the procedures clearly, and makes sure she understands any goals and/or physical issues along the way. We LOVE Kellie and Blue Sky Pilates!!!
