I began taking Pilates almost 15 years ago after being diagnosed with a life changing condition that impacted my mobility. BF was instrumental in my mental and physical healing and helped me rebuild my strength while also feeling safe. In the eight years since I moved away, I’ve explored other studios close to home but none has come close. BF is truly one of a kind and a silver lining of the pandemic was being able to reconnect with Beyond Fitness online!

I’ve taken Caryn’s classes in person and online for 17 years! I enthusiastically recommend them to everyone, everywhere.  Caryn never, ever disappoints.

Highly recommend Beyond Pilates! I can’t go a week without at least two classes. The instructors are all very knowledgeable and fun; extra bonus is that Caryn is also a Physical Therapist.

BFP is a very welcoming studio for people of all skill levels and ages. Classes are fun and challenging, instructors are supportive and attentive, the community is very kind and friendly and Caryn, the owner, is simply the best!

"The almost unlimited pass has given me an opportunity to kick start my health and fitness with fun and high-quality classes in Pilates and Barre. I have been taking 5 classes per week for the past 3 weeks and already feel like a new person--tighter abs, glutes and all-over strength. The first Barre class I took, I thought I was going to be sick to my stomach (!) because it was so strenuous for me.... now I am able to hold my own through the whole program. It is amazing how well the physical body responds to the right kind of exercise and training. I love it! I will be getting the almost unlimited pass again next month and highly recommend it to anyone who is ready to commit to their fitness and well-being in a big way!"

"I can't say enough about Beyond Fitness Pilates and owner/teacher-extraordinaire Caryn Connarton. I have been a regular at Beyond Fitness for nearly ten years and pray the studio will keep growing and flourishing for the next thirty... at least! Because of lower back problems, I was always afraid to take group exercise classes, until I discovered Caryn and Beyond Fitness. As a trained physical therapist, Caryn takes an interest in her individual students' physical issues and limitations, providing tips and guidance and often doing research to increase her already-vast knowledge. I suffered an injury a number of years ago and Caryn worked with me in individual sessions to bring me back up to speed. There's a quiet atmosphere of acceptance and support among all of the instructors and students. Here's to decades more at Beyond Fitness!"

As a complete Pilates novice, I enrolled with so much trepidation. And now I wish I had started sooner. Amazing instructors who are truly invested in your progress and can make even the hardest work fun. I am hooked for life!!

"A friend of mine introduced me to the Barre class at Beyond Fitness Pilates Studio and I loved it so much! It really helped me strengthening my core muscles and getting back in shape even with one class per week. I am planning to do more classes this year to reach the next level. I really like my instructor (Johanna) and Caryn, the owner, is awesome! She is very dynamic and caring, the two best qualities you'd look for in a training place like this. Beyond Fitness Pilates Studio is the best thing that happened to me in 2015!"

Been doing pilates and barre for 3 months at Beyond Fitness Pilates. Results are in: weight down 7 lbs, walking straighter and much reduced joint pain. Great instructors and nice studio with max class size of 8 so you get personal attention.

Caryn's classes are what keep me feeling strong and able in my 63 year old body. I love how she changes the routines but not too much. Energizing and restorative. Thank you, Caryn!

Taking classes at Beyond Fitness has changed what my body can do athletically. I feel the benefits of the strength I've built and flexibility I've developed each day as I go about my regular activities or participate in outdoor sports. I can't say enough good about Beyond Fitness!

Emily Q

I highly recommend Beyond Fitness Pilates to anyone looking for a welcoming and effective Pilates experience.  The classes are challenging but not overwhelming, and I feel a sense of accomplishment after each session.  The small class sizes allow for individual attention and personalized instruction.

Sue M.

I have been going to Beyond Fitness Pilates and Caryn for about 10 years, starting when my body started falling apart in middle age. I went first in person, then on zoom during the pandemic, and now a mix. I am so grateful to have a place I can reliably go for a serious workout that will leave me feeling great and most importantly, not injured.

Miranda P. 

I love classes at beyond fitness Pilates! It’s an amazing studio with quality instructors who are great working with chronic injuries. Highly recommend!

Beth O.

I love Caryn’s classes because of the variety and the dynamic mix of stretching, strengthening and cardio. After each class, I feel like every muscle in my body has been working.  I’m positive it has slowed down the aging of my body.  Thank you, Caryn!

I honestly never expected to be feeling so good and having so much fun at this age! Now in my mid-60s, I hike, bike, swim, ski and snowshoe, in addition to taking long walks with my dog and two classes a week with Caryn (though probably like most of you, I am a busy professional). One of the very best things about Caryn is how skilled and caring she is when her clients are recovering from health set-backs. Like many girls growing up before Title IX, I never thought of myself as athletic, so to realize I can bounce back, even when I’d had emergency abdominal surgery, has been remarkable!
