  • “I was beyond impressed with Ann’s ability to make a great workout both playful and intense! She made me laugh when my abs were ready to scream ;) Definitely helped motivate me to hold on through the shakey moments.”

  • "Many thanks, Ann, for helping me to feel stronger, more balanced and limber. You are a fabulous instructor."

  • “I suffered a prolapsed disc in my lower back about a year before reaching out to Ann. Even though my back had begun to recover gradually after months of physical therapy, I still had no faith in my own body. Ann’s thoughtful lessons allowed me to strengthen my core, build confidence, and re-gain mobility. Before starting with Ann I was terrified even to bend at the waist or raise a leg while lying down. Now, after just three months, I have more flexibility in my back and lower body than before my injury. It has been wonderful working with Ann. Her help has been a huge part of my recovery.”
