I've been meaning to write to you to tell you that your work outs are amazing. I'm recuperating from a knee surgery and I'm so happy to stumble into your workouts. The past week I've been doing your standing pilates and at the same time going to PT. I must say, my balance is getting better each day and my knee is healing faster. Thank you very very much.

Rachel, your standing pilates workouts are my favorites!!! I start almost every morning with your 10-minute standing pilates filmed at Madeira, but now will alternate with this one... I love pilates but because of orthopedic surgical restrictions I can really only do standing workouts. The spinal stretches, core stability & balance work are just what I need. I appreciate workouts that build functional strength instead of focusing on aesthetic appearance only. Thank you so much for the videos like this one!

Then I had to stop but have been exercising quite regularly at home. I love pilates and I kinda know the moves so I'm very happy to have found you. However I haven't see seen them all and was wondering if there are any specific ones for upper part of the body,arms and reducing breast size. Thank you so much and hope to hear from you soon.

I am so grateful for all the work you put into this and the way you explain so clearly.
