Breathing Retraining
I never write testimonials but I cannot recommend Lucy highly enough. Quite simply Lucy kept me believing things will get better these last few months. After several failed GP and emergency care trips and being told there was nothing medically wrong with me I had honestly lost hope.
From our first meeting I started feeling more positive. Lucy understood, gave me a diagnosis ,explained and gave encouragement. It's a long road but working on the plan and simple exercises each week I am making huge progress. Lucy is professional, knowledgeable, approachable and encouraging, I always feel better after our meetings!
Pilates Client
I joined Lucy's class nearly two years ago. I initially needed help with a frozen shoulder. However since then I have improved my flexibility, balance and strength.
I can't recommend her classes enough, she is extremely helpful and informative about any extra help you may require or adaptions to any of the exercises.

The classes are friendly, fun and professional.
The atmosphere is supportive and caters for all abilities, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Lucy's classes are excellent. Having tried a variety of classes, I find Lucy's focussed and challenging but with a good ratio of stretching plus mindfulness/relaxation. The introduction of weights is allowing us to work harder in a supported way. I like the intensity of a one hour class - Lucy manages the hour very effectively with great planning, flow and variety. Thank you Lucy!
Long COVID Patient
Lucy was a God-send when I had long covid. She was quick to diagnose the various issues it caused me and clearly explained what that meant for me. I began to be educated as to what I needed to start doing and stop doing without ever feeling 'told'. I felt listened to without ever feeling 'interrogated'. Most importantly in this lonely and frightening time she understood, she empathised, and she supported me.
In time she skilfully scaled up my treatment and home exercises in careful response to my level of illness and later recovery. She was way ahead of any other care provider in terms of her knowledge and the way she applied it.
I have no idea how I would have coped last year without her excellent help and it is a greatful pleasure to recommend her.
