Most people want to live on a mountaintop. Health, happiness, strength and growth occur while climbing it! Pilates is one way to make the climb. Marybeth is a wonderful mentor and coach!! Not only is she steeped in the discipline of Pilates, she has great rehab skills for those who are recovering from injuries. She is always aware of where clients are in their journey. Marybeth takes every opportunity to celebrate small and large successes and corrects with gentleness and knowledge of proper technique. I would highly recommend her for those of you who are skilled and those whose pace is slower. The journey is our home. I am ever so grateful to have Marybeth share in mine.

I have done Pilates for 7 years with 5 different primary instructors at 4 different studios. Johnny Miller has been the best instructor I have had, I found him three years ago and am very happy working with him. His knowledge of the discipline is vast and his instruction is deliberate, careful and fun. He puts our class through its paces in a fun and energetic way, I enjoy it because I am not young and athletic yet I feel that I get a good workout, my goal is always to build strength and flexibility not to sweat profusely and collapse in exhaustion. I worked with him in Pasadena in a popular high-end health club and now I am so pleased that he has opened his own studio in Palm Springs. His studio is a wonderful place to go, it is pretty, clean and very serene. I recommend Absolute Pilates for people of all ages and levels of Pilates experience, he will tailor the work out to suit your comfort level, he is very observant and makes sure everyone feels good, feels safe in the exercises and are accomplishing their goals.

For over thirty years I have been working out at gyms, fitness clubs and studios. Over that span I have been trained by dozens of trainers – some good, some not so good. The only instructor I have used consistently over the last decade is Johnny Miller. I call him an instructor and not a trainer because he teaches you as well as trains you. With Johnny’s care, you will learn a more comprehensive approach to fitness. As well as showing you how to workout he’ll demonstrate why it improves your overall well-being. For knowledge, integrity, as well as a kick ass workout, I highly recommend Johnny.

Johnny Miller rocks! He has been my Pilates instructor for over 15 years. He has deep knowledge of the practice and a wicked sense of humor making the sessions joyful.  

I believe Johnny Miller of Absolute Pilates is by far the most experienced Stott Pilates instructor I’ve worked out with. Johnny has been providing Pilates training to me for over 8 years. I’ve met a number of his clients and I know they would agree with this assessment. His comprehensive approach includes a complete evaluation of your current physical well being, with emphasis on therapeutic exercising, stretching and conditioning. Whether your goal is to build muscle, tone, increase range of motion or, cardio training, Johnny has the intuitive good sense of a seasoned instructor. He keeps his certification current and within the Pilates training community, is a sought after instructor for those new to the field of Pilates training (a trainers trainer, so to speak). I prefer my one on one session with Johnny, however group sessions are also possible. After over 30 years of sitting at a desk, getting my body back in shape was no easy task. Being a “Gym Rat” often did more harm than good and lacked the experienced instruction of a seasoned professional. Absolute Pilates changed all that and I can say beyond any doubt, that I’m in the best physical shape since my twenties. Thank you Johnny!
