I've been a client of Michele's for over 10 years, and continue to be inspired by her teaching.Michele's classes are always up-beat, fresh, and informative, and her instructions are clear and detailed. I've been able to incorporate many of the exercises into my daily routine, and my strength, posture, and body-awareness have all improved. The private sessions have been especially valuable for correcting my specific imbalances and in healing from injuries.Michele's home studio is very clean, bright, and private, and I look forward to returning there in the near future. In the meantime, I have been enjoying her classes and private sessions on zoom.Highly recommended!

Michele is an expert teacher and an inspiration to us all. Her classes are excellent, I highly recommend her to all levels of fitness.

Taking online classes with Michele has been a great experience. She strives to make everyone feel welcome, supported, and motivated. She values feedback and uses it to prepare classes that continually consider our interests, our concerns, and a pace that is as challenging as we need it to be.In the end, I feel these classes have exceeded my expectations and I am moving and functioning better and with greater awareness. I have only praise for Michele and everything she does

My husband and I are both active people but have different fitness interests. We started taking semi-private classes with Michele a couple of years ago, hoping to find an activity we would both enjoy, find beneficial and complement our other activities. We now take two classes a week. Michele is everything you would want in an instructor - talented, knowledgeable, dedicated and professional. She knows our bodies better than we do. Every class is different, engaging and challenging. We get a whole body experience - balance, flexibility, strength, alignment and focus - and feel great afterwards. We can’t recommend Michele highly enough. Worth every penny!

I am a certified old guy at an age approaching Ghost.I went to CorSano Pilates due to chronic muscular pain in my left hip and intermittent pain (I can only describe as a stabbing pain) behind my left shoulder blade. A few sessions combined with semi diligent prescribed exercises on my part, resolved both issues to my largely pain free satisfaction.Michelle is extremely professional and competent. Her advice is pure gold.

I have seen Michele as a private client and to attend group sessions. Her private sessions are a great way to maximize the group session benefits. The classes are very well organized and structured to provide optimal benefits from melt and Pilates. Since starting Michele's classes my chronic shoulder pain has greatly improved and is rarely aggravated. I highly recommend her class for all fitness levels and for those who are experiencing chronic pain.

Michele is one of the most knowledgeable fitness professionals I’ve worked with.I invested on a 10 sessions package in order to restore my core and body imbalances after having two kids. Michele’s teachings of the MELT method has enabled me to breathe comfortably in my body and also reduce bodily aches and pains from daily life.I know I will work with Michele in the future and even consider doing pilates sessions with my hubby!!Thank you Michele for all this insight and knowledge. I love how you are passionate about the work that you do; you radiate when you speak about pilates and the whole mind/body connection.Speak with you soon!Valérie

I've been a client of Michele and Corsano Pilates for seven years now and I can't recommend her studio highly enough. After each session I walk out at least 2 inches taller, feeling exercised, refreshed and stretched.

Love this amazing woman she is one of a kind !! She always wants the best for you in your workout !! Thank you for being you ❤️
