I was introduced to Brooke at a Pilates barn clinic and was hooked by her knowledge of the human and equine body dynamics. I did a few clinics and then signed up for private sessions thinking it would keep me going one the winter. WOW was it so much more! Over two years later and I am still hooked! I feel so much better physically- better balance, strength, and stamina. Brooke has also helped me overcome some older injuries and imbalances that I thought were just part of who I was - Nope! Brooke offers both virtual and in person classes. I enjoy that I can practice at home and am always impressed by what Brooke can pick up on!

I hope you can appreciate my burn from my stirrup leathers. It’s the raw looking spot. Where my finger is pointing is where I used to get them last year! I’ve only had 2 lessons with you but you’re so much of the reason why my leg is in a much better position now!!! Thank you!

I have taken Pilates instructions from Brooke with Pilates In Motion for well over 10 years. I have found the exercises to be tailored specifically to me and my body. It has helped to build my core strength and muscle balance. Extraordinary sessions.

Brooke has introduced me to Pilates and has truly helped with body awareness, core strength, and flexibility over the last few months. We've identified weak areas and improved my posture, especially in the saddle. I love that she is helping to improve my riding as I approach the half century mark.

I am just getting started and Brooke is patient and explains everything so I feel like an expert... also I am working parts of my body I never knew existed.

I have witnessed and benefitted from Brooke’s skills since before Pilates In Motion LLC. I am continually amazed at her ability to articular her vast knowledge into easily applicable instructions. Her work with riders speaks for itself, but it does not stop there. While I am not a rider I’m very interested in postural strength and Brooke’s expertise never fails me. She made a lasting impression on me many years ago and when I began to have lower back and hip issues, coming up with adjustments not only for what was giving me trouble at the time, but also to it more “guy-friendly” — I was often the only male in her classes. My goal is to combat bad posture from extensive sitting from commuting and working, and what i am getting from Brooke is a thoughtful, we-thought-out plan that makes sense and can be applied to my everyday life. I feel some trepidation on giving this review because it means Pilates In Motion LLC will no longer be a secret!

Thank you so much Brooke L. Centrella! You are making such a difference in our riding, and I can’t wait to do more! Anyone who wants to take their riding to the next level should engage Pilates In Motion, LLC to help achieve their goals.

This is after only three virtual sessions-
Hello! I properly engaged my core way more yesterday during my lesson, and I can feel it today, in a good way! Especially in the canter, because I rode a much bigger horse than I’m used to who is a big mover. I was able to scaffold my spine!

Meeting Brooke has been such a gift for me, and for my horse! Not only does she do an incredible job as a Pilates instructor, she also flawlessly translates all of her mat sessions to the saddle. Since starting my lessons with her, I’ve become so much more aware of my body and how it affects my horse, and also have become a much stronger more balanced rider because of it. My body used to be riddled with the aches and pains that comes along with riding and working in an active performance barn, but since working with Brooke consistently, I am able to keep my body supple and fluid. I can’t recommend Brooke enough, no matter what level of riding you do.

My experience with Brooke has been nothing short of amazing so far. I’m a virtual client and I am beginning to see changes in my posture and in my riding after only a few sessions with her. She uses helpful cues that make all the difference when you need to feel and activate certain areas of you body. Highly recommend!!!!

Brooke’s Pilates sessions are becoming invaluable to me. I decided to sign up for virtual lessons after an in-person clinic, and just after a few sessions I can feel how I and my horse are transforming through greater awareness, strength and balance. Brooke approaches our sessions with great care and depth, and she contextualizes the exercises for me as a rider which is simply a gift.
