“Steven has a special place in my heart. I started taking Pilates a couple of years ago because of some chronic pain including sciatica and osteoarthritis. I'm also a proud senior citizen. I understand I have to focus on reducing the ill effects of my chronic conditions which is easier said than done. Pilates has introduced me to listen to my body, how every muscle groups are interconnected and allowing me to understand how each muscle groups affect my movement. I honestly believe my body can be retrained to get rid of old habits (posture, movement, standing, etc.) and learn new ways to train my brain to accept healthy body mechanics and eventually reduce pain and discomfort.”
