Testimonials

I just want to write to thank you for the help you have given me in the Equipilates sessions that I have been attending since September.

Having reached my 60s without having attended an exercise class before, I didn’t really know what to expect and whether it would suit me. The problems with my arthritic hip and knee and advice from my Physio prompted me to come to you and I am so glad that I did.

You make the classes fun and tailor the exercises to our individual needs. Whilst challenging some members of the class, you are also able to cater for less able people like me without drawing attention to my problems or making me feel embarrassed. The fact that you refer to how exercises will help with aspects of riding is a big motivating factor and it is great to be with a friendly group of like-minded people each week.

Helen’s Equipilates classes are just brilliant. She takes the time with each person in her class to make sure the exercises are being performed correctly – and offers alternatives & adaptations where needed. I love my weekly Equipilates sessions with Helen and can’t recommend her highly enough.

I have been doing equipilates with Helen for over a year now and I can’t believe how much this has helped me and my riding.
I have suffered for years with bad hips and back, having to visit the chiropractor on an on going basis just to keep riding my super wide cob! After a few months of starting Pilates I no longer needed to go to the chiropractor and haven’t been for almost a year now! I can sit up much straighter and I feel I am far more effective on a horse… amazing difference!

The classes are very easy going, Helen is good fun and informative, my schedule is very hectic and I can’t always make the class and when I can I’m usually in jodpurs and have hay on me somewhere, but it’s never a problem! I can’t thank Helen enough for her help and I’m so looking forward to learning so much more! ??????

Since breaking my femur and fracturing 2 vetebraes i have found Helen’s equipilates classes excellent, and look forward to coming each week, and am doing exercises that I couldn’t think of doing before joining, even my physio was impressed with the type of movements i could do after equipilates! Highly reccomend Helen’s classes

I joined Helen’s class 12 months ago and unusual for me, I still look forward to going every week. The class is friendly and fun as well as following Helen’s structured work out which she tailors to each individuals needs. I cannot believe how far I’ve come and the movements which I can now do. More importantly, the work is paying off in my riding and I’m now looking forward to having an assessment on my horse as I know it will be money well spent. Can’t recommend these classes highly enough. Lynne Humphreys

Over several years I have been a patient of Helen with back and hip issues that is caused by my type of work. I have found her to be sympathetic and very helpful in managing my ongoing problem. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
