The Oprah Show about Pilates sparked my interest!

I have been in some type of exercise program most of my life and thought this sounded interesting. My daughter was getting married in July so I asked her if she was interested in taking Pilates Reformer classes with me. We started at NIBC on the Pilates Reformers in March 2005. I didn’t know that much about the Reformer so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I also had a concern, because I had recently been diagnosed with an arthritic condition in my hip. I had been through some physical therapy with no results or pain relief. I was apprehensive that I would aggravate the condition. Over the next few months, I began to loose inches on my waist, hips, and thighs. My abdominal muscles strengthened and I had more flexibility. My neck was also more tone. Most of all, I was amazed that I no longer suffered from hip pain.

Reformers started as a way to get in shape for my daughters wedding, but because of the benefits, I have decided to continue with it as a way of life.Carol Davidson-Toby
