Body Wellness Pilates

Body Wellness Pilates was recommended to me by an NHS nurse as a way to try to regain some fitness, strength and stamina as part of my recovery from a long-term health condition (ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). I needed someone very experienced in order to navigate the complexities of my health condition whilst encouraging me to experience the joy and feeling of accomplishment that this type of exercise brings. Kirsten is highly experienced, incredibly professional, warm and friendly, and very caring. She has a wonderful and very infectious enthusiasm for her craft. I am still fairly new to Pilates, and more specifically to the studio reformer equipment, but have already seen the beginnings of improvement in my stamina, strength and health in general. Looking a little more toned is also an added bonus! But more than anything, I really enjoy the sessions. I never fail to leave at the end feeling energised and uplifted!

I was looking for ways to improve my core strength and I also had a sciatica problem down my left side. My wife introduced me to Kirsten and Body Wellness Pilates. It was my first introduction to pilates and I was a little apprehensive. There really was no need to be, Kirsten was an extremely well qualified instructor with many years experience and above all was a really lovely, supportive and kind person. I must add I am probably a difficult client for her, as I seem to get the moves back to front, raise when I should lower, lower when I should raise and quite often get my left to right wrong! But again Kirsten has been so patient with me, offering help and support all the way through every step. I can' t recommend her enough. Over my first 12 months, my core strengthened and my sciatica was cured and I noticed that my whole posture had improved so much, it was amazing. I've now been attending Kirsten's Reforma Pilates classes for the past 3 years and love it. I have developed and improved my pilates along the journey and increasing my flexibility and stretching my hamstrings too, which was an area I needed to improve on. If you are fortunate enough to live in and around the Sevenoaks area, there is no better person to teach you pilates, if you don't live around Sevenoaks, then it's still worth travelling to get to, Kirsten is first class.

Having done Pilates for many years I was keen to restart after a hip replacement. I was also cautious so looked for some 1:1 session. Found Kirsten and I cannot thank her enough. Have gone on to join classes and find I feel I am getting stronger. Kirsten is so good at describing exactly what you should be doing, especially important with injuries. Recommend her very highly. Thank you, Kirsten

Kirsten is fantastic! Really lovely person as well as professional. I went to her pre-natal pilates class and then continued with regular pilates. Really helps me, makes me feel healthy and happy! Thanks Kirsten!!

Fantastic, well equipped studio space and Kirsten really knows her stuff
