Time for Pilates

The studio owner, Yumiko, is highly trained in Pilates and very knowledgable. She took an individualized approach to my training to identify what I need and what level of exercise is appropriate. She is very consistent and keeps track of my progress so each session feels like an extension of my prior session. Her communication is great (she responds quickly to my e-​mails and texts) and is flexible in her scheduling (as her schedule allows).

I’ve been searching for an unpretentious class to help me stay healthy and active, and was excited to find Time 4 Pilates smack dab in Millbrae!
Yumiko was very responsive and accommodating over email. I had my introductory sessions for the past couple weeks and am about to start semi-​private lessons. Yumiko is incredible. She and Pilates have truly changed my life! Yumiko is patient, light-​hearted and definitely enjoys her work. My posture, breathing habits and core strength have improved drastically. And finally, I lost 5 pounds of weight I’ve been struggling to lose for 5 – 6 years.
The prices are all very reasonable given the time and focus instructors have on you. The bathrooms and studio are clean (she wipes down the machinery after I sweat all over). There is plenty of parking. And if you’re heading towards SF you can pop off at Millbrae station, walk 5 minutes to the studio, and walk back to the train afterwards.

Yumiko and Nina’s Pilate lessons are highly recommended. Their classes help building flexibility, muscle strength, and endurance in the legs, abdominals, arms, hips and back. They also teach you about breathing appropriately. I always look forward to going to Time4Pilates. You will feel a big difference after their classes.
I love it!

Ever since I started training with instructor, Nina, my body pain (lower back and shoulder) have diminished to the point where I’m able to quit seeing my chiropractor, who has been treating me for the past 3 years. I always walk in to class with lower back aches and would walk out pain-​free. Before the start of each group class, the instructor, Nina, would always ask how everyone’s feeling and she would customize the exercise movements to meet our body’s needs. I recently took a class with the other instructor, Yumiko, who was also able to show me new moves to stretch parts of the body that I’ve never stretched before, e.g. different areas of each foot, it was like getting massages through pilates exercises. Feels so awesome!!! I love the instructors at Time for Pilates. They really know the human body and gives each student individualized attention to ensure we are doing the exercise and using the reformers correctly. The new studio is very clean and we exercise to relaxing music. I definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to relieve the pain in their body the natural way through pilates exercise.
