your life will be transformed for the better."

"Eden totally transformed my post-partum body in a couple short months. Her classes are challenging, never overwhelming and are excellent whether you're post-partum or just needing a boost in your normal regimen. I almost want to have another baby just so I can attend her Mommy & Me class!" -Mary K.

"I started taking Eden's class two months after I had my son and I feel stronger and healthier than before I was pregnant. The rewards have been awesome! You get a great workout in one hour and when you are mom, that is all you have got!"
-Jaimie A.

"EDEN KICKS A**!"
-Stephanie K.

"[Eden's] Mommy and Me class helped me physically, mentally & socially adjust to life with baby."
-Emily G.

"Eden's Mommy & Me class is amazing. She got me into pre-pregnancy shape in 8 weeks." -Kathy P.

"I weighed more than 300lbs... and barely wanted to go to the gym let alone work with a trainer or attend a class. The last thing I wanted was to be the fat girl in a room full of fit, skinny girls. I had convinced myself that I could not get in shape. Funny, when you are overweight, other people tend to ignore you... but not Eden. She made me feel included by showing me modifications and not letting me get away with doing less. She taught me how to work out at my level but pushed me to challenge myself. Eden made me believe I could do anything... I lost over 100lbs. When I work out with Eden, I know two things for sure: I am going to work hard and I am going to love every minute of it!" - Alyssia B.

"Mommy and Me is a workout like no other! Thanks Eden for your dedication. YOU ROCK!" -Maria M.

"I want to thank you so very much for all your kind words, endless encouragement and brutal workouts! All have made me the better person I am today. I hope that I have the opportunity to see you (or even better) workout with you again!!" -Lori A.

"I did not truly feel fit, motivated or challenged until I participated in one of Eden's classes... Two years later, I was physically transformed for my wedding! When guests complimented my buff arms and physique, I shared the secret to my success: Eden. I am absolutely hooked on Eden's enthusiasm, wit, creativity, knowledge... the list goes on!" -Lynn G.

“Eden is a true professional who understands her field better than most. Her training is innovative, in-depth, creative with variety, intense but attentive to the varying degrees of individual ability levels of her students. Additional Eden qualities, essential in a workout setting, are her energy level and humor...the classes are enjoyable and move quickly, always leaving a few areas a little sore the next day which assure me Eden always delivers a great class!"

- Terri N.

"I am so so grateful for the challenging workouts you provide so consistently. I started doing your pilates and ride classes and have been able to commit to 2-4 mornings/week before the weekend. Working as a full-time grad student, almost full-time employee and unpaid intern -i don't get much sleep- but your classes are worth it. Thank you thank you thank you! I feel great and can't wait to keep this up and see where it takes me! You are a wonderful instructor!"

- Alyssa L.

“[E]ven as part of a larger class I always felt like I was getting personalized attention. I was a long-term participant in [Eden's] body defined class, attending twice a week for many years. During that time, Eden's enthusiasm, knowledge, and creativity kept me feeling inspired, and it wasn't long before I was feeling great and seeing the results of her guidance and encouragement. She's such a positive force, and somehow manages to continually challenge while always keeping it interesting.”

- Kristen V.

"The best way to describe Eden is "awesome"! She knows her stuff, pushes you to excel, works you hard, mixes it up and she makes it fun in the process! In a nutshell, she is the best instructor I have ever had!"

- Kathy B.

"Eden Kessler is by far the best instructor I have worked with. From my marathon training to weekly Pilates I could always trust she would give me the best possible workout. She is definitely one of the things I miss most since moving to California."

- Abby S.

"I always looked forward to my Pilates classes with Eden because her great sense of humor and compassion distracted me from her intense workouts. I left each class feeling better physically and emotionally. I had been an avid runner and cyclist but it wasn't until I took Pilates with Eden that I was able to tighten my core, build long, lean muscles and get back into a bikini. I now am proud to say that I have a 'Body by Eden'."

- Beth R.

"She's got a great sense of humor that keeps you going... even during her most sadistic exercises." -Rev. Tim M., Comedian

"Eden really encourages us to "own" our work-out... she manages to keep her vibe energetic, positive and playful while kicking our butts -- and I am grateful for it!"
-Makeeba M., President, The Eden Kessler Fan Club

“Eden is a outstanding instructor. Her classes are challanging, fun, and you get a great workout!” -Nicole B.
