I injured my back six years ago, was still experiencing pain, going to physical therapy every year when I started going to see Brenda at her studio. After several months of private lessons, my back pain is almost non-existent and my stomach muscles are a lot stronger. I finally feel that I'm making progress and changing how my body works instead of treating the symptoms. The best part is I've been strengthening my muscles while I'm on a reformer, a machine that protects my back while I am working my core. My plan is to eventually do her mat classes after I'm strong enough, but I never thought I'd see the results I'm getting, much less be in so much less pain. Brenda is an excellent instructor, a good listener, and very cautious about my workout so I don't re-injure myself. I highly recommend her for anyone with back pain to try this workout and see what a difference it can make. read more
