If, like me, you’ve been intimidated by sculpt classes in the past, you need to try Austin’s class at Vida. It is welcoming and inclusive, which is a breath of fresh air compared to other studios whose classes and instructors feel like they only cater to those at peak-fitness levels. Austin provided a true full-body workout and I could tell that she was intentional with the programming, ensuring we had equal focus on upper body, lower body, and core. What also set her apart from most was that throughout the class she made references to modification. It was not overlooked or an afterthought. This was important to me because I am just a few months post surgery and making my way back to fitness at my own pace. Also, she actually programmed a cool-down! We had time to stretch and breathe instead of being rushed out the door. I will definitely be a regular here!

This was my first in-person Pilates class & I really enjoyed it! I’d recommend this to anyone wanting to try Pilates! Austin gave great tips and corrections.

Austin's class was so good! The right mix of inclusive for all levels, but also challeging. Her energy is warm and welcoming. She didnt hover but also said things along the way that made me know my form was okay, or when to make slight changes that would be best for my practice. I will definitely be coming back! Bonus points for the the music, it was great!
