I had a fantastic experience taking Pilates classes at Focus Pilates. The instructors are knowledgeable, encouraging, and have a great sense of humour. When I started taking classes there a year ago, I suffered from chronic back and leg pain and was unable to do much physical activity at all. Although my spine problems haven't disappeared, my symptoms are greatly reduced, my mobility and flexibility have improved, and I'm again able to enjoy hiking and swimming . Daniel, Kelli V, and Danny, the instructors who worked with me regularly, took a personal interest in my health and adjusted the classes, both group and individual, with a clear awareness of my specific needs and limitations. Pilates makes me feel good physically and puts me in a good mood; I plan to continue doing it indefinitely.

We originally joined Focus Pilates with an open mind and a few aching body parts. The instructors carefully trained us up and within a matter of weeks, we felt a noticeable difference in our strength, stamina and flexibility. Little did we know just how beneficial pilates could be for us. Over time, we have moved up through the different class levels and have gotten to know the Focus Pilates team pretty well. If you are looking for a place to expand your mind and work out your body like you've never done before, we would invite you to come along for a session or two.

I was first introduced to Pilates 6 years ago after a slipped disc. Being a very active person, who was regularly jogging and working out at the gym, I felt so frustrated about being immobilized by the disc problem. Then I discovered Pilates, which was the solution to my misery: not only could I continue with exercising, but Pilates strengthened me physically and improved the slipped disc related health problems.

I enjoyed it so much that I continued. I have greater strength and flexibility than ever before as well as a much better posture, strong stomach and back muscles, which support my spine.

Being an advanced practitioner of Pilates in the meanwhile, I greatly appreciate the excellent instructors at Focus Pilates. As Pilates is still a growing field, it is not easy to find competent instructors, especially for advanced levels. At Focus Pilates I can trust that the instructors are well trained and stay updated with new developments. The professionalism, enthusiasm and competence of the team at Focus Pilates make it high quality Pilates studio, managed with integrity and care.

Pilates has been the perfect antidote to all the minor injuries and imbalances picked up from years of running. it has improved my strength and stability and helped me to be kinder to my body when i run. Most importantly though, regular Pilates has just seen me through my pregnancy, maintaining my posture, mobility and flexibility right up to the 40th week.

I have slipped discs in my lower back and my neck. I have found that Pilates has helped me build strength in my core muscles and allows me to keep my body in balance and maintain flexibibility with the least negative impact. I have tried Yoga and had mixed results. I also tried floor yoga and Pilates in a group and that was not successful as I couldn't work at my pace and incurred injuries as a result. One on one Pilates allows me to work in partnership with my instructor and the results have been great.

Initially I was sceptical as to how pilates could help me. I have had arthritis in my sacro-iliac joint (pelvis) for the past five years and was receiving regular physio sessions but I was not seeing much improvement. The arthritis was flaring every couple of months and I was losing my confidence. I thought that doing any form of exercise would not help as I needed to be so careful not to aggravate the arthritis. Focus Pilates was recommended by various friends and I started one-to-one sessions with Daniel and Valarie. I was apprehensive at first but within a month I felt stronger and confident that they understood my needs and would go at a pace I was comfortable with. The staff at Focus Pilates have been professional and patient. As a result I feel stronger and much more confident physically and emotionally. My arthritis hardly flares anymore and when it does my recovery time is dramatically faster. Pilates lifts my mood, has improved my posture and is a wonderful way to the start the day.
