Incredible professionalism from the team at Physical Equilibrium. Have been working with Zachary Moxham for years now and can’t speak more highly on his work ethic and commitment to my health goals. 5 out of 5 highly recommend

I love PE! Zach creates workouts that challenge me but are still manageable. He pushes me to try my hardest while emphasizing safety and injury prevention (so important for runners!). I have better upper body and core strength now. And I’ve been intimidated by Pilates in the past, but Amelia makes it accessible and fun! My posture has improved. I always leave PE feeling energized and excited and just the right amount of muscle soreness.

I hate working out. I took a 7:30am Pilates class here with Cherry the instructor and it kicked my ass and made me feel so great the rest of the day. I haven't gone back yet but I check out the schedule all the time. The staff was all so nice. I saw a few people working out with personal trainers - seems like a really safe and nurturing place. I didn't feel uncomfortable or judged like I do when I go to some other "fancy" gyms like this one. Seems like a group of people who care about their bodies, and who have fun. Oh oh also SUPER nice changing and shower facilities! Free yoga mats (don't have to rent). Also the studio was small and they said they don't ever let the classes feel crowded so I liked that too. I will definitely go back.

The trainers here are excellent and the gym is top notch and beautiful. I've been strength training with Sara Dimmick as I train for running and triathlon. This has been game changing for my overall health and race performance.

The trainers at physical equilibrium are amazing! They are very precise and have gotten me through multiple orthopedic issues over the years. My strength has increased and they are continuously challenging me and helping me become stronger and leaner.

I've been strength training with Sara Dimmick, co-owner of Physical Equilibrium, for more than five years and it is a wonderful facility with fantastic instructors and equipment. I love it's small size ... definitely not a gym factory! Sara has over twenty years of experience and trains all types of athletes, in particular triathletes and marathoners. I'm an endurance cyclist and given my long hours on the bike, strength training is key to having a strong core for stability and of course lower and upper body strength to tackle the miles and the climbs. Sara also works extensively with clients with injury rehabilitation. The gym has a wonderful sunlit Pilates and yoga studio as well and private rooms for massage. I highly recommend Physical Equilibrium for its personalized service and extremely talented trainers!

Julia Halpin is a phenomenal trainer and is extremely knowledgeable about the body and post rehab training. I was paired up with Julia by Sara Dimmick a few years ago when I explained what I was looking for in a trainer. Julia is incredibly skilled and understands how to help build strength, while keeping me pain free. I’m so grateful to have found Julia and PE.

I could not be more grateful to Dean Geller as a personal trainer! I started working with Dean as a post-rehab trainer, coming out of PT after my 2nd shoulder surgery. He has done an incredible job keeping me on track, progressing safely and at exactly the right pace for me. He thoughtfully plans each session, but is quick to adapt and truly tuned into what’s best in the moment. I always look forward to our sessions, and it feels amazing to be getting so strong in a safe, fun and sustainable way. I would highly recommend Dean for personal training.

Physical Equilibrium has top notch trainers in a well designed, pleasant and clean environment in Midtown. Boutique feeling with personal attention. They are centrally located but if you prefer, they also do house calls. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a personalized, results-driven approach.
Jaylon Brigham
Physical Equilibrium has been great for my physical and mental health. Through training with Zach M I have been able to strengthen my entire body and can feel the results every day! Zach challenges me during personal training workouts to push my boundaries while still maintaining safe bodily metrics. Thanks for making me feel so good!

Sara Dimmick and team at Physical Equilibrium are AMAZING! I ran my first marathon this past November in NYC. I had a very aggressive time goal and I am in my 40s - I wanted to accomplish my goal without getting injured. I was referred to Sara at Physical Equilibrium by another one of their clients. She became my marathon coach through the entire process.I worked with Sara over the many months of my training. I had an online schedule tailored just for me which included running plans, weights, cross training exercises. I met Sara in person monthly (at my choice) for adjustments in weights (form adjustment, etc). She was available through comments on Training Peaks (our training plan software) as well as via text, email and phone.

I took a pilates class from Jesse and he was really great, it was like having a personal trainer in my home through zoom.He gave modifications to the exercises if they were too challenging for me and he explained and showed me how to do the exercises properly so I could maximize my workout.

I am very happy to recommend Physical Equilibrium and to share my experience of joy and relief after the classes I attended, I m very close to the due date in my pregnancy and i could never imagine that my body was able to do so many exercise , feeling powerful and in shape as my weight has not change, it has felt healthy and magical. i am very thankful to Julia the personal trainer I worked out with and to Sara who is very experienced as a trainer and as a mom so that she could lead me and explain a lot about my physical changes. both teachers have the necessary grit and enthusiasm to inspire and stimulate in order to feel pleasure with really little effort in every movement.. thank you

Always enjoy the strength-for-runners training sessions with Zach. He takes the time to explain how to get the best from the moves, and corrects for proper form when necessary. Highly recommend.

It took me a lot of trial and error to find a place like PE and a trainer like Julia Halpin.If you like when a trainer is really, really listening to you both when it comes to goals and session-to-session, she’s the best! I started with her this summer with a clear set of baseline strength challenges (I got tired from holding my niece), and I have felt so much progress in my goals! She’s developed programs that are VERY different to stuff I’ve done in the past and I think it really speaks to the level of personalization you get from a true professional in their field when it’s the quickest I’ve ever seen results.I also appreciate her more thoughtful demeanor because if you’re thinking about doing personal training and worried someone is gonna yell at you or “push you,” when you really want someone who acts somewhere between partner and a coach, she’s the one!

The Physical Equilibrium team is the best! Professional trainers with the right skill set to help me achieve my goals. And just as important, they are dependable, caring and fun.
