Core Belief Pilates

Yusra is an amazing Pilates instructor and I’d recommend her without hesitation. She is a unique and rare find, a true healer who is both incredibly knowledgeable and very fun! I was very hesitant to attend a group class after a spinal fusion surgery but 3 years on I feel stronger than ever, much of it thanks to her! I really look forward to her classes.

I have been doing Pilates with Yusra for the last 7/8 years. I have done Pilates all my life so I've experienced many teachers and I can say Yusra is absolutely an expert in her profession. She is not only always updating her knowledge with the latest courses and qualifications in Pilates but has a profound knowledge of the human body, in particular the muscles and bones. She knows the specific problems of each of her clients and always makes sure each of us has a personal movement during classes. She has a beautiful studio for one to one sessions and has kitted it out with the latest equipment. Dedicated, talented, knowledgeable and, above all, friendly. You will be in good hands with Yusra. Highly recommended.

Yusra was highly recommended to me by my chiropractor 4 years ago. From my very first visit I loved her classes. She is so helpful and supportive, explaining clearly how you can achieve the very best from each lesson.
Yusra is not only my Pilates teacher, she has become a very dear friend who I know I can turn to if I need help and advice with any strains or injuries.

I first met Yusra 3 years ago after being injured in a car accident. I had always exercised prior to that but felt incredibly nervous about coming back to exercise even though I desperately wanted to regain my fitness and my confidence. Yusra understood this from the get-go, without me actually saying the words and I got on with her instantly. I had several PT sessions with her in my home and at her studio. I gained my confidence at home and then we moved the sessions to her studio. All the sessions were excellent and her Reformer sessions are amazing, improving core strength and flexibility. I've been attending group sessions for some time now and find them just as beneficial. Yusra is professional, focussed, fun and creative in her sessions. Her wonderful technical knowledge comes through in every session as she focusses on any particular needs we may have and tailors exercises to support and strengthen us. She regularly attends courses to update her knowledge and qualification in her profession and feeds this through to her clients. I tend to expect quite a lot from my exercise and Yusra's sessions deliver on every count. Her classes are really welcoming, she's a lovely person and I'd absolutely recommend her.

I started Pilates around 15yrs ago, have had 5 teachers in that time due to moving house a few times. I started attending Yusra's classes when I was pregnant and she has helped me through 2 pregnancies with very little issues. She certainly is very knowledgeable and highly experienced in teaching at all levels. She is professional, friendly and it brightens my day when I attend her class.

Yusra is a fantastic pilates teacher and she has taught me for over 5 years. I do both mat classes and individual sessions in her lovely studio. She has helped keep me fit through 2 pregnancies and helped with my post natal recovery. She tailors each session to your specific problems and gets great results.

Yusra has been teaching me on and off for over 2 years now and she’s amazing. She listens, takes care and understands each individual whilst filling encouraging them to push to their true potential. I feel that she really knows her stuff and she is an inspiring teacher and a really lovely person. Her classes are difficult to get in to because people feel the same and the word about Yusra is that she is awesome! I can’t recommend her more highly. Try and get to one of her classes or her reformer studio which is amazing.

Yusra is a very knowledgeable and warming teacher, who has so much enthusiasm it’s infectious. My sister and I have been to Yusra’s home studio which is beautifully kitted out. We both really wanted to train together but having two completely different agendas for wanting to practice, my sister being pregnant and wanting a pre-natal class whilst I wanted to work on exercises for my scoliosis, it was amazing how Yusra tailored the class for us both, ensuring we both received the best attention amd felt amazing after. Can highly recommend!
