Best Travel Award For Pilates Retreats 2017
“I had terrible back, hip pain and I felt very weak at only 50, and before I came to Hannah I never liked exercise, but I love Hannah’s online classes and her style of teaching and happy demeanour – Im enjoying classes for once and doing them regularily. After just 1 month I now notice I have more strength, and more body confidence,”
-Sandra Jun 20
“Hannah has an excellent knowledge of the body and a lovely teaching style. After my initial one-to-one session she picked up on all of my bad posture habits and gives great advice on how to correct them. She is generous with her time and gives individual attention to all of her students. I walk away from each session feeling stretched, refreshed and re-aligned. Highly recommended!”
