Many years ago, I took aerobics classes in Glendale at Dee’s Gym.  After having children, I found I didn’t have much personal time and stopped working out. 

Several years ago, while on vacation, I was introduced to Pilates. It seemed like a workout I could commit to.  I looked into various options in the Foothills and decided on Pilates Plus in Montrose, which is less than ten minutes from my La Canada home. 



We work on a torture device machine called a proformer.  There is one instructor for a maximum of ten students.  I have been going for a couple of years.  It’s not cheap but I have noticed a big difference.



Last year my sister and her family visited from Washington State and I took her to a class.  She too felt it was a great workout.  She also felt it was a good business and she and her husband are opening their own Pilates Plus in Bellevue Washington.   They hope to open in July; I can’t wait to check it out.
