The introductory sessions were really worth the money, Jessica is very good at bringing variations based on clients needs and comfort level. I had a great fun so far working with her and I plan to book more classes with her in future.

My son is aspiring to become a professional dancer in ballet. He said he really thinks, with Jessica’s private instruction sessions, he will make his goals. We are grateful she took him on as a student, because she is amazing.

Jessica's classes have helped me with range of motion and posture. The changes were subtle at first, and then I noticed how much taller I felt after each class. She has a lot of knowledge and is able to clearly explain things to me in a way I can grasp. She's very patient and helps you understand what to think about as you are doing the movements. In my exercise classes, I have begun integrating what I learned from Jessica into my workouts. I highly recommend Gyrokinesis and Pilates with Jessica!
