Pilates Studio of Springfield is a full-service Pilates studio offering individual and group instruction. Co-owners Kirsten Wright and Tara McAnarney have been running the studio for more than 18 years. They currently employ 11 instructors, eight of whom are full-time.
“We have 14 reformers and multiple other apparatuses for our clients to train on,” McAnarney said. “We are not just in the physical-fitness business, but we are truly in the personal relationship business. Our clients quickly become our friends and their total well-being becomes our top priority.”
Wright and McAnarney have always had a passion for helping people reach their fitness and health goals. “After we discovered Pilates and saw its benefits for ourselves, we decided that we wanted to create a space where people felt welcomed and inspired to see what Pilates could do for them,” McAnarney said.
