Testimonials

“

Although I have exercised consistently since childhood, I didn't discover Pilates until I reached middle age and now it is an important weapon I use in my endeavours to remain middle aged for the rest of my life! On a personal level, a sacro-iliacal joint weakness which was always prone to injury, has been restored and pain free since performing Pilates four years ago. Indeed Pilates has made a significant contribution to my positive mental state following a personal loss a few years ago. This would not be possible were it not for the social environment in which the classes are conducted and for this we must thank the teacher, Tessa, whose unfailing enthusiasm, knowledge and empathy ensures that the mood is relaxed but purposeful. I would strongly recommend these Pilates classes to anyone of any age or condition; they can make a significant contribution to your quality of life.

As a busy GP, I frequently see patients with back pain. Some of them are only in their 20's. In many cases poor posture and lack of abdominal muscle strength are the aggravating factors. I have been doing Pilates with Tessa for many years and frequently recommend Pilates classes to my patients.

I had some really good news a couple of weeks ago - I have managed to get my bone density back to absolutely normal for my age! I was over-the-moon! I try to keep pretty fit but the Pilates, in my opinion, is the one thing that has made the greatest difference - weight bearing on different parts of the body - so once again - big thank you.
