At the age of 63, having participated in virtually no regular form - TopicsExpress



          

At the age of 63, having participated in virtually no regular form of exercise for 40 years, I called the Pilates Center. I had recently stopped all anti-inflammatory meds, which I had been relying on for arthritis and fibromyalgia pain, at the order of my doctor. I was frankly terrified at the idea of taking up any physical activity, since I had never succeeded at even the simplest phys ed classes. Jenelle calmed my fears on the phone and assured me that they would start wherever I was. Where I was may have been a very low level of fitness, but my instructor, Robin, never alluded to my weaknesses, only praising my accomplishments. Now, 18 months later, I no longer have pain in my hips or knees. I am much stronger and able to lift heavy items more easily. My weight has changed by only a few pounds and, no, I ll never be a size 8, but my clothes fit better and my posture is better. I intend to continue my classes at the Pilates Center. This is the perfect place for anyone interested in Pilates, with truly excellent, knowledgeable, and compassionate instructors. I would recommend it to anyone. Virgina Parish Thank you Virgina!
