“I started Pilates Reformer when Vanessa was first training to become qualified. I had done Reformer many years ago as I have done Pilates Mat for some 8 years now. When Vanessa qualified I signed up for more classes as the “taster” sessions I had had I really enjoyed. Pilates Reformer is very different from the Mat and I personally think makes you much stronger in your whole body. I have certainly seen the progression with my strength since I started. I also enjoy that there are so many different exercises you can do with the machine and Vanessa adapts the classes to what you wish to work on whether that be legs, arms, core etc. Vanessa always does a class for me that covers a bit of everything but is also aware of my weaker parts being my lower back and neck. Vanessa will always check at the start of class what she has planned and will adapt if if necessary. I do appreciate that the classes may be more expensive than Mat classes however, I would really recommend Reformer for overall strength and you do see the difference even after a few classes.”
