Reviews and Testimonials
What our students say about us.
"I am really enjoying my [North at Home] classes - you have become the best part of my weekly routine. I have noticed a big improvement in my mobility, strength, and flexibility since starting a couple of months ago. Things that were seemingly impossible before I started are actually becoming possible!"

“I love that I can pick up classes at any time of the day. I also love that I can scroll through and look for certain workouts on certain parts of the body that I want to work that day! Your videos are super easy to listen to and follow, and your voice is great. I just love your teaching style!”
Mandy
“North at Home has given me sanity during this crazy time. I can do all the Pilates I was doing before, but even more now because it’s so convenient. I love being able to choose the area of focus from your library and reading (and adding) comments. You are such an amazing teacher - I feel spoiled that I can take a class with you every day.”

“Since the beginning of the pandemic, Anna has been part of my daily routine, in the comfort of my home! I love that I don’t have to drive to do a class. She has a very descriptive way of teaching that reminds you of all your form specifics. I love her humour and the background animal antics that keep it fun. Can’t imagine life without North at Home!”

“Anna Harris is a skilled Pilates teacher who is dynamic, knowledgeable, caring, and a ton of fun to be around! She makes everyone feel important and valued. She allows for different exercises to be modified in a range of difficulty from beginner to advanced, and will adapt to each client’s specific goals and/or limitations during a private session. She has changed the way I feel about myself and how I approach fitness and health. Thank you for inspiring me every week!”

“Through your online classes you have completely transformed me, without being in the same room! I’m on my mat consistently almost every day and have found my way back to balance and strength. Thank you!”

Posted on Google Stella GustavsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anna Harris is an excellent Pilaters instructor. I joined North Movement Studio during the pandemic and found the core strengthening and mobility work to be very helpful in preparation for my total hip replacement. Without it, I would have had a very difficult time managing after the surgery. I highly recommend doing Pilates with Anna for mobility issues and all-round improvement of body functioning.Posted on Google Olivia LukaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The absolute best Pilates! Anna is so kind and caters to each individual’s needs. She is so advanced in her practice and I could not recommend North enough!Posted on Google MarilynTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anna is an excellent instructor. Having taught Pilates for 18 years, she's knowledgeable, and is able to modify to any skill level. Anna has a great sense of humour which makes her classes fun. I love her park Pilates classes on Wednesday night. They're challenging, you get a great workout, yet feel like you've just hung out with your friends for an hour!Posted on Google Lillian NovachisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been attending North for 2 years. I took a chance that pilates would help my lower back issues. I would throw my back out and be immobile for days. Thank you Anna, I can honestly say it’s been transforming. It’s so easy to use the platform , do it on your time and tons of variety/class length options. No need to watch your screen- Anna is a master at talking you through all of the moves!Posted on Google John FultonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been attending Anna's Mens' "Power" Class for 4+ years, in the studio, now online and, soon, hopefully in the park.. It's the only real workout I get, one hour a week, and I'm in decent shape for the first time in a long time. Even my wife, who encouraged me to start, can't believe I stuck with it. Good mix of strength and flexibility, Anna keeps it "interesting" and it's a great group of guys.Posted on Google Norman CookTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anna is an excellent instructor. I enjoy her classes, and find them to be helpful in improving my functional strength, balance, and flexibility; and in preventing the sports injuries to which I'd previously been prone.Posted on Google Melanie FallisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Loving Anna Harris’s virtual and screen sharing Pilates classes! She has 18 yrs of experience and is a wonderful teacher who continues to teach all levels with skill, knowledge and humor. She provides modifications and progressions so everyone gets the workout they need. I’m loving the virtual classes and can always fit them into my schedule... Anytime, anywhere. As Anna would say , “Pilates helps us all stay active, healthy and connected”Posted on Google sarah kirzingerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. North has been my favourite fitness community in Toronto (and now working out from home with North@Home!) I've been seeing Anna and team for nearly a decade now -- and I always feel stronger, healthier and more centred after every class. The instruction is amazing -- well paced, a good focus on technique, and the classes always have variety so it's always a good challenge. There is no squeaking by with North -- and I consistently have a great workout (and a few laughs!). Doing it from my basement is NOT easier and the set up is super simple, and been a lifeline during this pandemic!! I cannot recommend enough!!Posted on Google Catherine EustaceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anna sets the bar high for what a virtual work out should be. Having faced the challenge of on-line pilates with her special blend of enthusiasm and professionalism, Anna mixes it up every week so you get an all over work out. Excellent pilates!!Posted on Google Sarah FallisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve known Anna for almost a decade and have loved taking her classes over the years, whether it was Pilates, an equipment class or outdoor boot camp. North Movement is not only an amazing Pilates studio but it is a community full of information-sharing, motivation, friendship and respect. In true Anna fashion, she’s adapted to our new way of life and has brought the safe, comforting and supportive environment she created in person, online, through North At Home. Her classes, in person or online, are informative, encouraging, sweat-inducing and a great break from our current pandemic lives. If you’re looking to stay connected through movement, want a new community to engage with or simply want a stellar work out, check out North Movement Studio, Anna’s got you covered.
