Melissa’s studio is by far the best in Maine and probably all of New England! The classes are challenging yet accessible and fun. I am markedly stronger since starting Pilates two years ago and can’t wait to continue my progress at this studio.

The instructors are consistently kind, professional, attentive and thorough. It almost feels like a private lesson, as they all always pay close attention to me (while also paying attention to the other students!). Every time I take a class, I know that I have gotten the best instruction possible and made the most of my time there. It is a spectacular studio!

Deciding to try pilates again after driving by this studio several times feels like the best thing I've done for myself all year.I was a little nervous at first—though I'd done a few mat pilates classes over a decade ago, I'd done yoga for years and always found the atmosphere to be somewhat competitive and "showy." MoveME pilates is worlds away from all of that, and I felt at ease the moment I walked in. It's a beautiful, cozy studio. The atmosphere is relaxed, and everyone I encountered is super warm and friendly. I feel very fortunate to have such a great place practically right around the corner from where I live—I'll be spending a lot of time here!

The barre class is a wicked fun workout, even if you're a drop in! ?

I'm a PILATES GIRL now!! Absolutely obsessed after just 2 classes with Abbey. She makes me feel SO comfortable and capable. I am not a fitness person by any means so I have been intimidated by pilates for so long. I finally sucked it up and bought a pass. WOW I wish I started earlier I'm literally in love. Anyone can do it, you have to take 3 one-on-one classes first so you get direct attention to learn all the moves before going into regular classes. It's so much more fun than you think it is and your body will BURN good for days after. I can't wait to see how I look and feel after a couple months of this. Abbey is 10 stars.

I have been driving past the MoveME studio for years and decided THIS was the year I was going to try pilates. I LOVE IT! It's the perfect balance of movement and stretching, and Melissa (owner & instructor) keeps the routine fresh from week to week. I've noticed a big difference in my strength and endurance. If yoga is too slow for you but cardio is too much, then pilates is just right. I love working on the reformer and can do things now that I couldn't even 3 months ago. I have more flexiblity and less joint and muscle pain. I'm so glad I took a chance on trying something new. It's the first exercise regimen that's I've stuck too. The studio is bright and clean, plenty of parking and lots of class options to suit your schedule and fitness needs. And the instructors are wonderful - patient and encouraging. It's the best decision I've made in 2022!
