Michelle is an amazing Pilates instructor – she is so welcoming and knowledgeable. She communicates clearly and effectively, helping me to understand where I should be feeling each movement and listens and helps me make changes depending on what I’m feeling throughout the practice. I have really felt an improvement in my own Pilates abilities since training with Michelle and would recommend her as an instructor to anyone at any Pilates level.

As a new client with Michelle I have found reformer pilates to be fantastic! There are many variations to each exercise to suit my different strengths and weaknesses which enables me to always complete the exercise using the correct muscles. Low reps and slow motions make it a great exercise for anyone at any stage on their fitness journey. Michelle is clear in her direction and understanding of the body. We haven’t been working together long but I already feel more aware of different muscle groups. At 65 I think it is important to work on strength, flexibility and balance to age well, working with Michelle I feel I am accomplishing these goals. I hope to be practicing for many years to come.

Asita’s expertly individualised programmes have helped me build strength and flexibility along with confidence to extend myself. I feel I am in safe hands with her skilled guidance. Thanks Asita!!

I’ve been going to Asita’s Pilates classes for a few years now, and I can’t recommend her enough. When I first started, I was a complete novice, but she made me feel welcome and supported from the beginning. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and always works around any injuries or limitations. Even in a group setting, she has a way of making the classes feel personal.

Both my daughters go to her when they’re home visiting (they’re both intermediate/advanced Pilates students) and they love her classes too. The sessions are challenging in the right way, focused on building strength and control over time rather than pushing too hard. I always leave feeling stronger, clearer, and refreshed, both mentally and physically.

Pilates with Asita was recommended by another health professional already treating a back injury I had. In regular one-on-one personalised sessions Asita provided guidance and support with specific exercises aimed at increasing my strength, mobility and flexibility. She carefully monitored my capability providing appropriate challenges and maintenance exercises. Pilates has become part of my ongoing well-being regime. My grateful thanks to Asita for her contribution to a pain-free back, increased strength, mobility and flexibility plus improved balance and posture.
