🥰 I am pleased to share with you my remarkable experience at Pilates Studio City, where I have been a devoted client for over a decade. 💐 The studio's owner, Lora, has been my Pilates, Gyrotonic, and Red Cord instructor for the past eight years. Prior to that, I had the privilege of working with Amy, Nikki, and Nicole, who were all amazing instructors. When Lora is out of town, I am fortunate to be able to continue my Pilates practice with the incredibly talented Jehona. 💕
As a two-time Stage 4 Osteosarcoma survivor, I have endured years of challenging chemotherapy and multiple major surgeries, including limb salvage surgery, total hip and femur replacements, and several knee replacements, which have left me with debilitating pain and physical limitations throughout my body.
From my very first session with Lora, I was impressed by her exceptional ability to help me find ways to alleviate my long-standing pain and physical limitations. What sets Lora and Jehona apart is their attentive and intuitive approach to instruction, which enables them to tailor their techniques to the unique needs of each client. They are also highly skilled in incorporating innovative techniques and modalities, such as Red Cord Therapy, the Franklin Method, the Roll Method, and assisted stretching, to support their clients' journeys towards optimal health and movement.
Throughout the pandemic, Lora and Jehona have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to their clients' well-being, pivoting to virtual classes and limited outdoor sessions to ensure that their clients could continue to pursue their health and fitness goals safely.
Lora and Jehona are not only highly accomplished in their technical expertise but are also distinguished by their remarkable compassion, empathy, and commitment to the community. They have created an environment that is inclusive, welcoming and supportive, making it easy for clients to engage in Pilates and Gyrotonic exercises with ease and confidence.
Despite being informed by medical professionals that I would have to endure my physical limitations for the rest of my life, Lora and Jehona have worked tirelessly to eradicate my long-standing pain and help me overcome my physical limitations. I am deeply grateful for their exceptional work, and I highly recommend them to anyone searching for genuine, caring, gifted and intuitive Pilates and Gyrotonic instructors committed to assisting clients in living their best lives, free from chronic pain. 🙏🏼💜✨✨
