| JD,
57: I just spent
a week on a sailboat and was able to use my strong core
muscles to allow my arms and legs to move freely for balance.
I didn't go overboard on rough the seas!

Seven months without pilates and
I look like an effing marshmallow ;) (She resumed her
workouts the next day!) 2011

I'm pushing thru my toes now - I can't believe even they
are getting stronger! February,

IM=X Blue Bell has helped me be more consistent thru my
golf swing, have a bigger twist. It's also helped my balance
and gotten my shoulders stronger.

CM,
44: We
are packing for a move, and pilates has made such a difference
in my range of motion! Sitting on the floor, squatting,
lifting, all that would leave me limping with pain shooting
from my heels to my hips. Now, even with hours of physical
work each weekend, I feel great at night. February,

TK:
When we stretch [in splits], I've
gained an inch and a half! January,

Shelley,

I got measured at the doctor's office yesterday, and I'm
1/4" taller!! I've been doing IM=X pilates for 3
months. January, 2011
PT:
My short leg isn't as short as it used to be. I've taken
the lift out of my everyday shoes, and it's half as high
in my gym shoes. Now when we do the forward bend, my knuckles
hit the floor!. January,

JD:
I
just spent time in Italy, and climbed 463 steps to the
top of a cathedral- I couldn't have done it without pilates!"

AH:
I
wanted to let you know that I recently painted my daughter's
room completely unassisted and didn't feel a thing the
next morning. I can say without any doubt whatsoever that
this is all due to Pilates at your Studio. I also credit
your instruction and Pilates with even giving me the energy
to even want to tackle this task and then to complete
it without any ill after effects. You are all awesome!
Thanks for introducing me to Pilates and for being such
great motivators! July, 2009

44, a 4 month member:
Before
I joined IM=X Pilates Blue Bell, I had severe lower back
pain every morning that made it incredibly difficult to
get out of bed. I was away for the last two weeks, and
the pain returned- it was just horrible. It would take
at least 10-15 minutes each morning to go away enough
for me to get up and moving. Today is Friday, and is my
third pilates class for the week. Each morning I’ve
felt progressively better until this morning, when I woke
up and said, “Wow!” because I could get right
up. September 2008
K.S.:
IM=X
Pilates in Blue Bell, conveniently located on Route 202,
has enabled me to strengthen my core resulting in more
energy. Paula, Jim and Beth customize each session, suggesting
accommodations for my body. As a 52 year old woman with
osteoarthritis, Pilates is wonderful exercise.

Laurie,
in the summer of 2008:
OK
Hard work and persistence really do pay off.
I have been doing pilates for a long time. I recently
kicked it up a notch, and started going 3-4x/wk.
I was at a family function. I hadn’t seen my brother-in-law
in over 3 months. He commented on how good I looked, toned,
and his best comment was, “You look pretty damn
good for a 48-year-old! Look at your legs, how defined
they are. Keep up what you’re doing, ‘cause
it’s working!”
In
an online survey, tfarion:
...you are doing a great job. Its always a treat to go
to your studio, even when i AM HAVING A BAD DAY!

JD:
I’m noticing my new pilates
strength in all sorts of places. At my last pedicure,
I realized I had held my leg out by myself the whole time,
instead of propping it up. And then I was lying down,
and suddenly noticed that I’m more ‘perky’
than I used to be!
TB:
After coming [to IM=X Pilates Blue Bell] for 3 months,
I had learned enough to become an advanced student! [The
studio] made me a certificate and my husband was so proud
of me we hung it on the wall in our house!
