Elizabeth's Pilates Class Testimonials
"Your Pilates class is in complete accord with my intensive chiropractic program at the moment, and I find that your classes actually help me do my postural traction and exercise. I hope to improve my posture by quite a big margin, not mention the Dowager's Hump! My chiro practitioner would like your email address to say how pleased she was to hear about your incredibly careful and thorough work and the intensive training that you have done, not to mention all of the excellent information that you share with us." M.H.
"I started Pilates 4 years ago after my daughter was born and absolutely loved it. I suffered neck shoulder & back pain as well as migraine. Since starting Pilates I no longer suffer neck shoulder pain, only occasionally back and have learnt how to relieve tension headaches by incorporating these exercises into my daily tasks, to relieve stress & create energy.
Elizabeth provides a fun relaxed setting to learn how to reawaken dormant muscles in the body and mind to control movement relieving and eradicating aches and pains" M.M.
"I always enjoy your lessons and the laughter and I have made some lovely new friends (you have no idea of the conversations that we have had at coffee afterwards.) I don't remember ever having to drag myself off to pilates-Thanks.
The library is also a great new venue with comfortable rooms, easy access and plenty of parking". R.B.
"I have been 're-converted' to Pilates through your classes. I have found Pilates a little bit 'boring' and too repetitive in the past and therefore started Iyengar. As my Iyengar teacher moved away i tried different yoga classes but nothing that stimulated me that much again - so i thought i give your class a go and i must say - i look forward to every Thursday night- no matter - hail or shine - as i feel great after each class. It is not only the exercise itself but you make the class engaging and i enjoy the newsletters every week to. ....will certainly miss this in the school holidays." S.H.
"The pilates class was great and I've been thinking about how I sit in a chair all week!
It's useful to get the reminder emails.
The massage was excellent and I feel so much better now that my pelvis is sitting straight - lower back pain and shoulder stiffness both gone. My husband will no doubt be in to see you soon". A.M.
"I have felt a massive difference to my posture in just one class. Look forward to more pilates" L.J.
"I've enjoyed my weekly pilates lessons, it's been a great chance to have a break from everyday routines and commitments and just focus on my body and breathing in a relaxed environment, if only for an hour. The exercises are sometimes challenging, and I do get concerned that I'm not doing them the right way, perhaps doing more damage than good! It takes a while to become familiar with all the titles & terms and I still need constant guidance - I have a feeling, especially after all you have said, that it will take a very long time to remember all the muscles and moves! I can't say I feel a dramatic difference, but I am generally more conscious of my posture and movements in daily life. I most definately feel great after a lesson though, a combination of being energised and relaxed at the same time. I would love to attend classes more often - I think that would make a more significant difference - but that's not possible for me at this stage.
I do think pilates has had a positive impact on my life and I would like to continue practising it as a part of a healthy, active lifestyle :-)
Thanks for your guidance and encouragement," J.Y.
