Discover how to keep your body fit and toned for a lifetime. NEW! 50+ Men and Women Enjoy Private Training at Back in Shape. Men have been going to big gyms, lifting weights and doing yoga, without feeling the comfort of stretching and exercising correctly they achieve at Back in Shape.

I practice what I preach and that inspires and enables my students to stay vital and maintain their physical looks and ability. Lasting and all the time fitness is my goal and I’m committed to coaching my students in a way they can engage in activity as a lifetime endeavor.

Along with a Healthy Back, fitness strength, confidence and inner peace are the focus of our Back in Shape program.
We work on keeping our joints mobile & flexible, our muscle stretched and strong, and our posture tall and graceful. And if it’s your back that’s limiting you, I know how to make it better. I see several athletic clients in private session that are busy at work but love to play and need to heal their backs before they return to their games.

What makes Back In Shape unique? We specialize in private sessions and small group classes tailored to the individual. Why did New York Magazine include us in 1996 “Best of New York” issue? We teach the Muscle Memory Method in all classes and private training workouts. We specialize in teaching you the names of muscles and how to use them correctly, You’ll learn how to recall and reinforce your muscle fitness all the time.

Here's what my clients have said about me:

From Michael Meehan /Finance– You saved my back and I learned how to use my abs correctly

From Helen Block/writer – When I say I am a different woman after Marjorie’s teaching, I mean it. This is an investment in my health and I see the benefits are lasting.

From Jim Giblin/Author – Exercise with Marjorie has helped me become much more flexible, and contributed to my losing 14 lbs. in 4 months.

From Denise Marci/Literary agent – Back in Shape sessions are educational, inspirational and motivational and one leaves with flexibility, relaxation and a strong sense of well being.

Linda Segal/fashion- Marjorie has an innate sense of what will work for each individual, and can easily determine where to focus her attention. I feel stronger, straighter, and more confident in my appearance. I call it "fitness for life". Try it. You won't be disappointed.
