I have been going to classes at the body gallery for over six years. I started due to some back pain from excess travel and a knee injury from tennis. I have had no injuries since and still do a lot of the same activities. The team has been with me through many life changes including marriage and children. I really do feel like it has been them with me along the way. We prepared for the wedding dress and later kept me in shape while I grew, and grew, with my first child. I felt confident and stress-free for the entire pregnancy thanks to several workouts a week stressing safety for mom and child while I continued to get a great workout. The team was there again and flexible around this new mom's schedule when I was ready to get back to my old clothes. While understanding my new limits, they never stopped encouraging and pushing me to dig a little deeper. While I never pictured myself as someone who would enjoy the gym workout versus outdoor pursuits and like a good workout, not a bunch of stretching, I love going to the body gallery. I work hard, get gently pushed to my limits and cannot wait to come back for more. It is hard work, just ask some of the fellows there. I leave feeling refreshed and fulfilled that is was time very well spent. I have been converted. From a runner and biker to a pilates devotee. FYI - the strength I have gained from pilates helps than running, skiing and biking a lot too as well as some pretty heavy toddler lifting.
