Nicole Baltes’s Connected In Motion

Specialties

I am an energetic and passionate instructor who motivates my clients to challenge their bodies while having fun. I work with individuals who want to live a healthy and active lifestyle, «work» hard and learn. Through Pilates and the GYROTONIC® method of exercise I can help you achieve your fitness goals, whether those goals are to rehabilitate from an injury, create a tone body, increase flexibility and joint mobility, or for general well-​being and happiness. These two techniques focus on moving from your «center» (aka your core), simultaneously stretching and strengthening muscle and soft tissue, increasing body awareness and best of all they bring JOY to working out and moving your body!

All sessions take place within Spring Wellness Pilates Studio. For the Gyrotonic method, private sessions are available. Pilates sessions are available as a private, duet and/​or group classes.
