Victoria Bristow Pilates

Encouraged by a friend to give Pilates a go, I did just that! Six months ago I began my tentative journey into the world of Pilates with Vicky and can not speak highly enough of the care and support or benefits I have had, and continue to have, through her teaching. Over the first few weeks we established where my limits were - a weak core and aches and pains from my lower back - and within the first 12 weeks I could really feel the difference. Six months on and I now have a much stronger core and the lower back pain has eased to the point of being very occasionally rather than daily. I cannot thank, or recommend, Vicky enough.

Pilates with Vicky is top class. She always adapts the exercises to my ability to help me with my personal mobility issues after major surgery. I have benefitted enormously from Vickys classes! Her expertise and knowledge are 10/10. She is personable and easy to work with. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone regardless of fitness or ability.

Hi I have been a member of Victoria's group for the past 2yrs I have been suffering with a back injury and the pilates along side my own gym workout have allowed me to continue working 14 weeks ago I had surgery on my spine due to a compacted disc squeezing my spinal cord and arthritis on my vertebrae pressing on my sciatic nerve and coursing my legs to go numb. Thanks to Victoria's guidance and support I am making a fantastic recovery the pilates are perfect for stretching and improving of posture and core strength. I highly recommend anyone who is having back pain or mobility problems to try

Started classes with Victoria in a group session for back pain after seeing her Facebook offer late last year. After some 9 months working from home my weight and posture had both moved in the wrong direction! After 2 term sessions in the group class I sat better and felt better, a great learning curve. But this was not enough, after a chat I took up one to one lessons. Brilliant, my weight has improved and my stamina and strength massively improved. The lessons are fun she has a great personality which comes across in the training, I am pushed to perform better with goals set and to keep the workouts up away from the weekly lessons through the recordings sent following the lesson each week. I am male, 60 years old and feel better than I ever have before, wish I had found Vicky years ago. If you are suffering from back pain, TRY THIS it is amazing how quickly you can improve. If you are worried about going back to the office with lockdown belly, go for the one to ones so worth it.

I started Pilates with Victoria more than 2 years ago and am still turning up every week. It has become a vital part of my weekly schedule to keep flexible as I get a bit older. I had tried out Pilates classes before, but it was clear from the first week that Victorias knowledge and approach was far more effective than anything I had experienced before. When lockdown hit, we switched to Zoom classes. Although Victoria went back to offering face to face classes, she continues to offer online classes. This is the best thing ever as I no longer have to commit to a 30 minute drive either side of the class. Victoria is excellent at making sure we can see what she is doing. Taking part in a class from home is really convenient and I totally recommended it. Come and join us. The more the merrier!
