"I suffer from a long-term sciatic problem that is severe and causes a good deal of pain. I have been working with Sonia for three months and my core strength has improved, as has all the muscle strain around the weak part of my spine. My osteopath says that he feels a real improvement. I love my sessions with Sonia, they are always varied and especially tailored to fit my very particular needs. She is thorough, kind and attentive. I have recommended her widely and will continue to do so." Jennifer S

"I have always been very active having played a number of sports to a very high standard. My focus has always been on strength and fitness and I realised after a couple of minor injuries that I had neglected some key principles. Working with Sonia was of course very different to working out in a gym or to any other training regime I had been involved in but it has so far had a huge impact on everything that I do - from walking to the tube and avoiding recurring foot injuries to my posture at work and also in the gym. I have learnt things about my body that I never knew and I now wish I had known before. I thought her style of pilates would be interesting and a change from my normal workouts but it has had a much deeper impact than I could have imagined. I now know so much more about my body and can put that knowledge to use in my workouts and everyday fitness regime. Just because you go to the gym 3 times a week does not mean you don't "need" Sonia - in fact I would suggest the opposite. In addition to this, on a personal level, Sonia always makes her sessions interesting. She is an interesting and engaging person who will make an introduction to Pilates Yoga or Somatic Movement a most worthwhile experience and even experts will benefit from her broad knowledge about the body and the mind. I couldn't recommend Sonia more highly to everyone, of all ages and all levels of fitness and experience." Graham H
