I feel like I have been given a new life. In two short years I have gone from unable to walk for more than 15 minutes to running 3 miles per day! I had not been able to run – or even walk – any distance at all for over 30 years, so I was pretty sure it was never going to get better. And then I found Teresa at Atlas Pilates. My posture has improved so much that I’ve had to have my suits altered.

To be completely honest, Teresa often gets way more out of me than I would ever think possible. Some days when I arrive I don’t even want to get started, yet by the time my hour has gone by I am again glad I showed up. I have worked with personal trainers, physical therapists, etc. for many years and never had the personal care at this level. The other day Teresa was so excited about something that I had to ask, and she replied that two years ago when she first started working with me she had envisioned this day would come if we both worked at it. I was stunned that she cared enough about me to actually think about my long-term goals, yet she had not shared them with me as she did not want to over-promise, and instead went about her plan quietly and, obviously, very effectively.

Over the past years I have worked with two other Pilates instructors, both of them certainly well qualified and very nice caring people, but with each of them I came away with either no improvement or worse off and in pain. This never happens with Teresa. My opinion of her work comes from varied experience, and she has earned my admiration for her efforts.

Whatever…I can go on and on about this, but instead offer that if anyone wants to know more they can call me and ask.
