I am a classically trained pilates instructor who just moved from NYC and I could not be happier to have discovered this incredible studio! I have taken several classes with Lisa and privates with Yungli! I would highly recommend both of them!

Quite a number of years ago, I had emergency surgery on my eye. I advised the studio that I would be unable to use my twelve remaining sessions for an extended period of time, and requested a refund. I was unaware that state law mandates refunding fees for a gym or other exercise facility when there is a documented medical disability. When I became aware of these laws, Ms. Cipriano continued to ignore my request for refund. I filed a complaint with the Office of the Attorney General. Ms. Cipriano stated that I forfeited the promos that I received by not using them, and therefore would not refund my remaining $790.Ms. Cipriano's refusal to refund the money for my unused sessions reveals more about her as a professional in the healing arts concerned with health and well being than all of the soulful messages in the many emails that are sent out.Ms. Cipriani chose to ignore the state laws that had jurisdiction over the operation of Art of Control at the time that I purchased the sessions. The Connecticut business laws are even more stringent than those of NYS, yet Ms, Cipriani seems to believe that they don't apply to her and her practice.Ms. Cipriano's meme "Your health and safety are our first priority" doesn't hold up. I do not recommend working with Simona Cipriani or patronizing her services.

I have been attending classes and having private for over five years. This is the best Pilates studio both for the experienced teachers employed and the equipment available to be used. I am always surprised at how detail oriented the teachers are suggesting miniscule corrections to improve a Pilates position. Lastly, the atmosphere in the studio is friendly, supportive, and encouraging..

AOC is an outstanding Pilates training school that exemplifies intelligent, thoughtful teaching. I have been thrilled with the uniquely personal and caring instruction that takes each individual's needs into consideration. All the teachers are warm, kind and considerate.

I highly recommend Simona's online teaching in classical Pilates. Her attention to detail and patience is outstanding. In addition, for anyone who is interested in certification as a third generation Pilates mat instructor, even if you are far away from CT and can only do online learning, the Art of Control is absolutely worth every penny!

If you are looking for professional, classical Pilates Studio and master teachers, I highly recommend The Art of Control. I have been a member of AoC since February 2018 and achieved amazing results - better balance, toned arms and legs, more energy. I could go on...For Pilates lovers, please schedule a private or semi- private session (reformer, tower, mat, chair, Cadillac). You will not be disappointed.
