Kathy Davis, Tennis Player:
Pilates  has improved my tennis game mentally and physically.  I have so much more flexibility and I'm not getting injured.  I can actually reach balls that I would not have even "gone for" before.  The added "core strength" has also improved my strokes as well as added power.  Pilates is great.

Teri Weksler, a world class Modern Dancer residing in  Birmingham:
"So here I am in my 30th year of Pilates.  I have had a variety of amazing teachers and I have to say Lelie and Carolyn have done a great job staying true to the technique as I know it; working with each individual, watching like hawks to insure that things are done properly; being creative in terms of individual limitations and needs.  And, of course, enjoying and bringing joy to every session, exactly how it should be."

Kathy DeLucas, trainer of one of the top five agility Brittanys in the U.S.:
"Pilates is the one venue that has helped me strengthen my core and work the small support muscles.  I have a passion for dog performance events and Pilates has helped me with the balance and movement I need to compete in these timed events."

Ena-Faye Bennett, an English Hunter Jumper horseback rider:
"Pilates' way of exercise has increased my awareness of proper posture and position of the spine.  The strength, balance, and flexibility acquired are all very important components of being able to ride my horse with coordination and supple secure contact."
