What people are saying…

  • Melissa Giles, Small business owner/mom

    “Gabrielle’s passion for teaching shines brightly. She does such an incredible job at creating a safe and encouraging space to practice in. She will gently nudge you to your edge, while also acknowledging and celebrating your current abilities, whether it’s your first class or you’re a seasoned yogi. Her grace and fire are something to be admired. If you have the pleasure of taking her class, do it!! You won’t regret it.

    If you’re looking for true deep tissue massage, Gabrielle is your gal! She creates an incredibly relaxing and safe environment and knows how to find all those tough spots! As a breastfeeding mom, my shoulders, neck and back get so tight. I am always floating high for a few days after seeing her, I have been to several masseuses over the years and she is truly one of the best. Highly recommend.”

  • Chris Dart, Real Estate Developer

    “Gabrielle is the real deal! I have had many many massages over the years and many claim to do deep tissue, but until meeting Gabrielle I had never really understood what deep tissue massage was. She is professional, a good conversationalist and most of all the best massage therapist I will likely ever encounter.”

  • Jordyn Davis, Accountant

    “ To say that Gabrielle made me fall in love with Pilates is an understatement. She pushes you to work hard and knows all the right cues to get you to have the best workout. I always left the studio feeling so amazing and sore the next day. I couldn’t recommend her enough and wish I could still be taking classes with her.”

  • Daiva Sirvidaite, Homemaker

    “Gabrielle is an absolutely wonderful massage therapist. Her level of professionalism and massage technique is exceptional. She does a great job listening to the issues, and addressing them as well as offering suggestions to help in between massages. I had deep tissue massages with her and they were really strong with long lasting results. I was amazed how she would find and work out all the tension knots in my body. Gabrielle helped me tremendously with neck pain and stiffness, back pain and sore hip muscles.”

  • John Schutt, Retired Police Officer

    “I have several pretty serious injuries from a car accident, I was riding a bicycle and a car hit me at 40 mph. I tried numerous massage therapists with little relief and most of them don’t know what “deep tissue “ massage means. From my very first visit with Gabrielle I was able to get my shoulder and lower back moving again and after each massage with her I experienced tremendous pain relief.”

  • Victoria Miller, In-home caretaker

    “I have had the privilege of taking Gabrielle's classes many times over the years. I began taking her classes in 2015 up until she moved out of the area. She has grown over the years into an incredible teacher! She not only pushes the class, she keeps the energy light and fun. I've taken both her buti class and inferno pilates, I like to take both because they are each different and engaging. She always keeps the classes fresh so it's not the same week to week, which is really great so you don't get bored. I've actually lost 60 lbs over the years and I've always felt comfortable in her class no matter my size or endurance/capability. She's always offering a variation so that people of different levels can participate.

    I've also gotten massages from Gabrielle over the years. She's does a great job, very strong and able to work out any issues I've had. Her space was always exceptionally clean, private, and welcoming. I've bought gift certificates for friends over the years as gifts. Everyone who's received them has been beyond grateful!”

  • Jamie Andresen, Bath & Body Manufacturer Callie Maple Collection

    “The very first time Gabi I tookl Inferno Pilates on a Saturday morning, I instantly knew this chick meant business, my glutes were on fire! Direct and informational, her teaching style takes your session and body to a whole new level of making you challenge yourself. The minute that shavasana hits your whole body is buzzing with an energy! She evens gives tips for homework moves, poses to practice and challenge ourselves. Straight amazing and worth every hard position..”

  • Amber McCleary, Dental Assistant

    Amber McCleary, Dental Assistant

    “As a person of size, being vulnerable and exposed as you are in a massage setting always carries the fear of judgement and disgust from your service provider but I received absolutely none of that from Gabrielle. Immediately she made me feel comfortable, at ease and accepted. She also took the time to learn my body and devote extra attention to the specific areas I needed most.”

  • Liz Wilson, Licensed esthetician & Small business owner.

    “I’ve been doing Pilates for over ten years, and attending Inferno Pilates classes for several of those years. I lift weights on a regular basis and find that Pilates helps to strengthen my core in a way that supports heavy lifting while also helping me to stretch, maintain proper form, and strengthen smaller muscle groups. It has also helped tremendously with reducing my neck and back pain.

    I started taking classes with Gabrielle about 2 years ago and love how much her classes challenge me mentally and physically. Coming back to group classes after isolation was intimidating, but her encouragement and ability to create an uplifting and supportive community made the transition easy.

    I cannot recommend her classes enough - if you’re new to Pilates, advanced, or are someone who lifts and is looking to mix it up, she will challenge you, while making you feel right at home.”

  • Shawn Thrash, Insurance Agent

    “I am so thankful to have connected with Gabrielle. She is an amazing person and an incredible body worker and fitness instructor. She is hands down the best massage therapist I have ever had. I left each session with my body feeling rejuvenated.

    My first Yoga class was with Gabrielle and I also went to her Inferno Pilates classes. She brings a welcoming and encouraging energy to her classes. I was looking for different ways to strengthen my core and challenge myself, and her class did exactly that. At the end, I felt accomplished and ready to take on the day.

    If you have the opportunity to book a massage with Gabrielle or attend one of her classes, do it! You will not be disappointed.”

  • Cres Lee, Homemaker

    “Gabrielle is one of my favorite yoga teachers. I wholeheartedly recommend taking her classes. She is warm, authentic, and so much fun. She is constantly learning and improving her skill set so she is up-to-date on the latest methodologies, practices and Music! Beyond that, Gabrielle is deeply empathetic and makes each person in the class feel accepted and valued just as they are. Every class with her is fresh and unique. She tunes into the group, the day and always delivers just what everyone needs at that moment.”

  • Andrea Schutt, Crime/Intelligence analyst

    “Gabrielle has been my personal masseuse for over 6 years. After my first massage with her I was hooked and booked my monthly massages exclusively with her. She performs the best deep tissue therapeutic massage. While I have been Gabrielle's client I have worked as a 911 dispatcher, spending 12 hour shifts at a computer desk. I suffer from some sciatic nerve issues, muscle tightness associated with sitting for long hours, neck pain, and most recently a nerve issue in my arm. Gabrielle has helped immensely with relieving some of the pain I feel and makes it more tolerable for me to work my desk job and continue serving the public. Additionally, Gabrielle has been a pleasure to talk with during my massages and is a genuinely wonderful human! I couldn't give her a higher recommendation! Don't wait, book with her now! You'll be so happy you did! “

  • Jessica Wax, Yoga Studio Manager

    “Gabrielle has the best classes. She always keeps it fresh and fun with great music and a positive attitude.

    The workouts are challenging but, so great. Your whole body will thank you! She’s amazing at what she does.”

  • Kathy Yeager, Teacher

    “I just can’t say enough about bodywork with Gabrielle! Whether with yoga or massage, Gabrielle has tons of strength and focus, as well as an incredible intuition that she uses to guide you into a healthier life space. Gabrielle can help you get past your limitations and develop strength while you do it, all while singing along to a killer playlist.”

  • Steve Childs, Real Estate/land Appraiser

    “I highly recommend Gabrielle for full body deep tissue massage.

    I was her regular client for more than 10 years while I was logging, doing appraisals and managing apartment units.

    She really gets to the spots where more attention is needed and is a highly professional massage therapist with an excellent understanding of the human body.”

  • Wendy David, Matsen Insurance Brokers, President

    “I can’t say enough about Gabby as an instructor! She is incredible! Her classes are upbeat, challenging, fun and a full body workout. Her Inferno Pilates class is the only exercise class that I have ever consistently stuck with, not only because I fell in love how with how I felt, but because she makes you want to come back. Gabby has changed my whole attitude on exercise and taking care of myself. She knows just the right balance of encouraging you but also keeping the classes challenging and informative so that you see change in your body. I love how Gabby’s classes have made me stronger and more confident. She is a gem!”

  • Jess Collard, Customer Service

    “I have been to a few other massage therapists in the past, but mostly went for the simple massage to loosen up some tension because I work in the grocery industry. I went to Gabrielle and she introduced me to her deep tissue approach and I absolutely benefited from it! I continued going back for more! Significant results and I highly recommend her!”

  • Shannon Ingram, Lifegaurd

    “I am a state parks lifeguard and a surfer in Northern California. I have been practicing yoga for about ten years now and never really felt like I was doing it at a knowledgeable level until I started taking Gabrielle’s classes. Her diligent, challenging, and informative teaching style is the reason I have loved going to Buti Yoga, vinyasa and Pilates classes the past four years. I have never felt as well rounded and strong as I do now at the age of 45. I can honestly attribute the strength of my body and my increased flexibility to her, hands down. If you get the opportunity to try one or any of her classes, do not cheat yourself and GO! You will soon understand why I am extremely saddened by her absence here on the west coast.”

  • Dave Duncan, Electrician

    “I have been a client of Gabrielle’s for over 7 years. She has been consistently amazing throughout that time in focusing on my aches and pains. I always leave feeling fantastic after a session. After receiving bodywork from her all other massages that I have had elsewhere have been utterly disappointing.”

  • Mindy Duncan, Dental Hygienist

    “Gabrielle is excellent at her craft. I’m so happy to have been a client of hers for almost 5 years. She has a great understanding of the human body and it shows with every session. I felt great after each session; her deep tissue specialty is unmatched in any other massage I have received so far. I have referred several friends to her and everyone has been happy with their sessions. Thank you, Gabrielle.”

  • Cathy Scarborough, Entrepreneur

    “I have had many massages over the years and I can honestly say that Gabrielle is by far the best! She is professional, passionate, caring and knowledgeable. Her extensive knowledge of the body and the mind/ body connection enable her to address all of my problem areas with expertise. I will continue to schedule monthly massages with her as I feel they are important to my overall health. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I wouldn’t consider going for a massage anywhere else. Try it and see for yourself!”

  • Adrea Wells, Licensed Massage Therapist

    “Gabrielle is a ray of sunshine in all dimensions. I have been blessed to take her Inferno Pilates, and flow yoga classes, and haven’t been the same since. I am physically stronger in my abdominal muscles, glutes, hamstrings, quads., all while strengthening and healing old injuries from competitive college running days. Words can’t describe how amazing and satiated I feel after her massage. I am grateful for, and highly recommend this gal!”

  • Brittany Adamson, Real Estate Agent

    “Gabrielle is genuinely kind and truly cares about your well being. This shows in every encounter I've had with her. Her massage is healing and her experience shines through. Her Inferno Pilates & Yoga flows are not only physically challenging, but push you past the mental blocks too. You'll hear this repeatedly in her classes. In fact, she'll continually motivate you to be your very best, whatever that is, each and every day. So glad to have her as a part of our community!”

  • Chelsea Cole, Creative Designer

    “ I am delighted to write this heartfelt review for my dear friend Gabrielle, who is not only gifted at bodywork but also an inspiring yoga teacher. I have had the pleasure of experiencing both her profound healing bodywork and the transformative power of her yoga classes.

    Her bodywork sessions are nothing short of magical. With intuitive hands, she skillfully melts away tension, knots, and stress from every inch of your body. She has an uncanny ability to pinpoint the root cause of discomfort, addressing it with precision and care.

    Her deep knowledge of anatomy, breathwork, and energy healing creates a holistic approach. If you are seeking an extraordinary bodywork experience and a transformative yoga teacher, I wholeheartedly recommend my dear friend. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on you.”
