Testimonials Jacqueline Detry, CMT Dear Patrick, This is a letter of thanks and appreciation for the work you have done in founding and developing the Pilates studio, fromthecenter. This is the place I have visualized seeing as a massage therapist. I have seen many, many clients who, most of the time, want to be educated about what is happening with their physical self (posture), etc. To experience Pilates on the level you offer at fromthecenter provides this opportunity. I believe our paths have met for productive reasons. We advocate, encourage, and provide an opportunity to discover self-healing. This is a crucial piece of the puzzle for my personal and professional development. I look forward to using the skills I have discovered in training here, to bring another level to this process of self healing. You and your wonderful staff together provide a wealth of knowledge and diverse experiences to the people who are serious about being proactive in maintaining optimum health. Patrick, again, abundance of thanks and blessings. Jacqueline Detry, CMT Connie White Four years ago my orthopedist recommended pilates to follow months of physical therapy for spinal degeneration. A good friend & bodywork professional recommended Patrick O'Brien, the owner of From The Center, and I've been working with him weekly since then. Patrick is a gem of a person and an amazing trainer who tailors each session to what my body needs at that time. My body has straightened and strengthened more than I thought possible. The space is lovely, the place is peaceful, and the staff is professional and warm. From time to time I've worked with other trainers at From The Center; each has been wonderful. I'm often tired and stressed when I arrive but the physical and mental experience always soothes and brings me to a state of relaxed energy. Bill Bradt I have been working out at From The Center for many years, almost exclusively with Patrick O'Brien who is a Master Trainer/Instructor. I call it my place of peace and serenity. All of the instructors are highly trained and top quality. They can adapt a Pilates session to the special body issues of each client. I have worked with other Pilates instructors and at other studios, but, in my opinion, From the Center is the best. I look forward to my time in the studio and always leave it in high spirits. From the Center will tone your body, nourish your mind and soothe your soul. Anonymous From The Center is a beautiful facility with a friendly and well trained staff. Owner Patrick O'Brien is a gifted teacher who has trained hundreds of other pilates instructors. Your workout will be geared to your specific needs and abilities. I have been a client for more than ten years. While I have sampled other studios, the pleasure and results I get from FTC always keep me coming back.
