Changed My Life!!! Really!

I love this place!!!. I had been quietly suffering from work related back problems for the the last couple of years, and before I started with these guys, I thought my only recourse was going to be physical therapy. Also, at 40 y.o. I was getting a "spread" and was slouching: both of which made me look and feel older and fatter. It is impossible to overstate what t hey have done for me!! My back pain is virtually gone, I am now able to be more productive at work - which means more revenue for me. The bonus is the fact lthat I look taller and thinner. Although the scale hasn't moved much yet, (hey, I'm 40!), my clothes fit differently and more than a few people have commented on my "weight loss".

The instuctors here are top-notch. They have tailored every aspect of my training to accomodate the "personality" my back seems to have. They even reviewed my posture while I work and pinpointed things that needed to be corrected. Also, they designed some stretching for me to do on my own.

Can you say "empathy"? These folks have it. The environment is entirely without attitude: very caring , non-judgemental and unpretentious. They totally did not care that my workout pants were covered in cat hair and lint the first time I showed up (long story),

Don't get me wrong: they are tough But only in the ways you need them to be. And don't we all need that sweet nudge in the touche to push us?

In summary:

pilates changed my life!

these women rock!

did I mention that I look THINNER?? :)
