Center of Balance

Chinese medicine is amazing, but not many practitioner like Dr. Phua willing to share all his knowledge and experiences to others, it's such a honer to know a good practitioner and teacher like him. Dr Phua is also a very kind and generous person, it's lucky to be his patients.

This is an amazing studio!! I come here for private sessions with my trainer Matthew Ryan Carney. They have an extensive selection of equipment and it's really clean and beautiful. Don't get scared off by the crazy looking Pilates reformers -- I was definitely intimidated at first but you will get an extremely targeted and effective workout. Not going to lie, when I first saw a reformer it looked like a medieval torture device or something from 50 Shades of Grey....it's actually great Pilates workout :)! My training with Matthew has helped me recover from a hip flexor injury and has also improved my core, balance, and flexibility. Sometimes you won't feel sore until the next day -- after a recent workout I was feeling pretty good that day but when I woke up the next morning I couldn't laugh without my abs burning! Hopefully I'll get that 6-pack soon! :) I highly recommend training with Matthew if you are looking to sculpt and tone, if you are trying to recover from an injury, or just improve your overall fitness. He one of the most awesome instructors and will give you a unique workout tailored to your needs! I love that our workouts progress each time and it's not just the same class or movements over and over. Each workout is fun yet challenging and he is good at motivating lazy and whiny clients (like me !) I really love the convenient location (right off of 101 at the Shoreline exit). My boyfriend goes to workout at Google on the weekends, so I just ask him to drop me off at Center of Balance down the street. There is always lots of parking unlike at some other studios. Note: The studio also has a cute sitting area and cubbies for your shoes & purses!

Amazing studio, they have solved so many of my aches and pains that there isn't room to list them here!

Post surgery rehab is excellent !

My aunt teaches here lol
