“The most rewarding thing I have learned from Pilates is that the body is an amazing machine and it can heal itself in many ways. Pilates reverses the old habits that beat on the joints and begins to give back to the places that we need to keep us healthy, young, and strong! I am continually amazed at the capabilities of Pilates with total wellness.” Teresa Floyd
