"Thanks again for yesterday.  After I left I felt like I was actually standing up straight for the first time in my life, my hips were aligned and I wasn't slouching - amazing!"  Laura A, graduate student

"You'll be glad to hear that I got around the Chicago Marathon in a personal best time ... looks like all that work you did paid off!  That's nearly 40 minutes of an improvement and being able to walk away afterwards is a huge plus!"  Michael J, engineer

"Because of your great work I can stand straight and live so many of my days pain free.  I have not suffered sciatica in months now and I credit your efforts to fix my alignment with that great gift.  I'd lived in pain so long I never knew I could feel this good, this free, this flexible."  Alana M, voice coach

"Do you know that ever since I left your place I have been pain-free - for the first time in months!  Whatever you did to my neck or arm or leg or back - it has done wonders ..."  Gerlinde E, school administrator

"Helena knows the body and muscles in-depth.  It sometimes seems like magic the way she figures things out - if a muscle isn't working correctly she stops and tests it with exercises from Pilates, gyrotonics, massage and more to isolate and pinpoint where the problem is coming from.  The more you work with her, the more she gets to know your body, and the more she figures it out.  She was able to resolve some issues that none of my other Pilates instructors ever could.  It's a process, and requires some time and dedication, but it makes a huge difference in your everyday life.  She's truly fantastic."  Dawn C, graphic designer
