    Dear Katja, you have been part of my daily routine for the last 6 months of lock down here in Australia and have kept me sane and mobile while working from home. This routine with the ball takes me back to my previous 18 months of rehab doing reformer pilates, just moving my neck from side to side after bilateral adhesive capsulitis. It is so nice to do this as part of a gentle stretch routine instead! I love your beautiful classes, thank you!

    Dear Katya, I broke vertebrae in my neck 10 years ago and although many years ago now, I still have to keep up the neck exercises otherwise it can be very painful. Therefore you can say I have done a few neck and shoulder sessions in the last 10 years (!) but this is definitely one of my favourites that I know I will keep coming back to. I find it so hard to find new and different neck exercises but you have a good range, simple (so i can understand.....)) yet obviously knowledgeable explanations and you have such a lovely voice and manner. Thank you 🌱

Ive been doing them daily for 1 week with 1 day off. I am now wanting to do pilates full time as it really is helping me.
