Fearless Symmetry Movement Studio

Terrific pilates studio. I’ve been taking weekly lessons from Sarah for the past 8 months and it’s really made a difference in my chronic back problems. Sarah is an excellent teacher — patient, precise, knowledgeable, thoughtful. She’s also a lovely person.

From the first time I called Fearless Symmetry, I knew I was in the right place. I have severe scoliosis and will only work with people who have experience my condition. I was matched up with Sarah and its been perfect. fit Sarah is very knowledgable, and what I really love is her enthusiasm for what she does and for how the body works, its so cool! I feel like I am in the best of hands, not only with my scoliosis but also with the silly tendonitis I developed from my work. Sarah was also very willing to talk with the person I was seeing for other body work. She e-​mailed him, but unfortunately he didn’t follow through on his idea to coordinate with her. I highly recommend and trust Sarah.

Had a GYROTONIC session with Catherine this morning — great studio space, amazing FiDi location. I am a gyro beginner so I appreciated the personal attention and help along the way. Office workers, do this, it’s good for you.

I’ve been taking solo pilates lessons from LizAnne Roman for a little over a year now. LizAnne is super positive, makes sure every position is perfect and motivates me to do far more than I would on my own or with other teachers. My posture is better, I have a more positive attitude, my core is stronger (useful for other sports), and I’m more toned.
Highly recommended.

Fearless Symmetry is my first Pilates experience, but after three weeks, with LizAnne, my body is much stronger, and my back no longer aches. The centrally located studio is so clean and modern, full of natural light with the latest equipment, and there is nothing like one on one coaching.
Pilates may seem expensive at first, but packages bring down the cost substantially and the subtle, yet noticeable changes in my body are worth a great deal.

I have been taking private Pilates sessions with Angelique Medina, who is a certified instructor, for about a year and a half now. I was a ballet dancer for 12 years, but quit to go back to school and join the corporate world. In order to relieve stress and stay in shape, I started lessons with Angelique at another studio and followed her when she opened Fearless Symmetry with a few other instructors. Angelique is a very friendly, encouraging, and professional instructor, and she customizes each session to my needs.
Fearless Symmetry is a gorgeous, new studio with state of the art equipment and is in a great location within the heart of the financial district. The studio has competitive prices to other places in the area, and the quality of the lessons are amazing, including their rigorous mat class on Thursdays which is taught by LizAnne. By attending at least 2 sessions a week, my lower back pains from sitting at a desk all day have disappeared, and my body looks as good as it did when I was dancing 5 days a week.
I highly recommend Fearless Symmetry as well as Angelique Medina!

My husband and I have been taking duet classes with Sarah Pomarico for over a year now and at this studio for over a month. The equipment here is top notch unlike another studio I went to where I really wondered if the machine was going to collapse with me on it. The ambiance here is calm and serene. Each week I look forward to Pilates class not only as a way to get toned and stay in shape, but also as a way to unwind from work.
Sarah checks in with us before we begin each class to see how are bodies are doing, and then tailors each class with the right balance of stretching and strengthening. Whenever I feel tightness in muscles, she makes sure to concentrate on that area and encourages me to come early and roll out tight muscles on the foam roller or with the pinky ball. She is exceptionally patient with my extremely short attention span and knows just the right amount to push. She doesn’t make fun of me when I tell her I hate the chair and I’m afraid it’s going to throw me off (yes, I have strange phobias).
I highly recommend this studio to anyone who is interested in Pilates. (They also have Gyrotonics though I haven’t taken any classes in that.) If you’re like me and sit in a desk all day, Pilates is a must to maintain good body alignment and avoid back injuries.

I discovered LizAnne completely randomly, and have been with her for over a year now. She is the BEST. Note: this review is a copy of my review for LizAnne, who is one of the instructors at Fearless Symmetry. I’ve also had a couple classes with Sarah when LizAnne was away and really enjoyed her too! Anyway, here’s what I love about LizAnne:
— She knows her stuff. She can explain my body to me better than my doctor.
— Her communication skills are off the charts — this is what really sets her apart, for me. She breaks down complicated issues into laymen’s terms on the spot, describes poses using imagery and metaphor (so helpful when you’re not sure what you’re doing wrong and need a new way to think about the pose), and has a chill yet positive tone about everything.
— She’s super professional, punctual, great with email and text, all that stuff.
— She’s just one of those magical people who make you feel comfortable being yourself. She laughs at your jokes, encourages you and commiserates. It’s nice to feel relaxed around someone when you’re spread-​eagle in footstraps!
— She takes obvious pleasure in watching you improve, which in turn makes you want to improve more. I was a helpless beginner when I started out, and I’m well into Intermediate work now, and it really feels like we did it together.
I cannot recommend this woman more, and the experience she provides. This is what Unilocal is for. Go now!
