testimonials

  • Olivia

    I loved my Body Story Session with Claudia… before the session, I was feeling unbalance and afterward I felt tall and balanced. The biggest insight that I had after the session is that I don’t have to make the moves big to experience changes and I enjoyed the quiet peacefulness of the session

  • Sarah

    Claudia is WITHOUT a doubt the most incredible pilates teacher I’ve been taught by.

    Her level of knowledge of the body, muscles and exercise is second to none. She is incredible and can alter any movement to ensure it is comfortable and appropriate for every client.

    I couldn’t recommend Claudia enough, she is the best and you SHOULDN’T accept any less.

  • Mandy

    Building Pilates into my daily habits has been so worth it. My body used to feel stiff and sore getting out of bed every morning, but since starting pilates I’ve noticed a difference in my strength, body, shape, circulation and overall wellbeing.

    The classes are varied and work all parts of your body with an incredible supportive and knowledgeable instructor.

  • Daniella

    I have really enjoyed every pilates with with Claudia. Her professional approach and attention to detail brings the best out of me every time.

    Claudia challenges me through body awareness to strengthen muscle groups that provide relief and support for my back and neck pain.

    I recommend Claudia for beginners to advanced clients.

  • Michelle

    I have been attending Claudia’s classes for over 6 months and I love them! I never thought I would do pilates as I was always a gym girl. I had tried a few classes elsewhere but never left feeling like “wow” until I started with Claudia.

    My strength and flexibility has improved and Claudia has a way in which she always relaxes your mind. I look forward to the exciting things to come at Body Design Pilates and Yoga!

  • Dianne

    I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis after an attack that left me with only 60% movement on the right side of my body.

    I started pilates classes with Claudia about 2 years ago and Claudia designed a programme which has assisted me with my balance, coordination and proprioception which were severely affected by the attack.  

    Claudia is at all times extremely professional and takes a keen interest in her clients. She is hard working and a great motivator and I found her willing to make recommendations to help improve my overall health. The sessions with her helped me both physically and emotionally and I have since made a full recovery.

  • Laura

    I am a HIIT fanatic and runner who has always avoided pilates despite the persisting advice that it has an incredibly positive impact on performance and injury prevention. Until I met Claudia, I ran a gauntlet on injuries, kept calm and carried on… I simply didn’t “GET IT”. 

    From our very first session, Claudia has built an integrated program to address my areas of weakness and specifically support my running progress. She instructs with precision and purpose; in a way in which you can instantly grasp the benefit both within the exercise and beyond.

    Her vast knowledge is evident. Her passion is palpable. Her kindness is key. Enjoy! You will not regret it!

  • Melanie Apostolidis

    Thank you for the Calm, Confident Event Claudia! I thoroughly enjoyed taking that slice of time for myself.

    Despite being immersed in the calming venue amongst the like minded people, I was surprised how long it took me to unwind - I definitely needed calming! But once I finally did, the sense of calm lasted well into the next day.

    I loved the beautiful little touches you added, such as the cards and discovering whether my masculine or feminine side were dominating at that time.

    The class was a lovely mix of gentle strength, movement and breath work. I left feeling so peaceful, and much more happy and present to slot back into regular life.

    Thank you, I would love to attend another of these events.
