Report
My 10-year old son has been attending online classes with Susana at Kids Pilates in Action for a few months. He looks forward to the classes, says he feels calmer at the end of them and that he “likes the way his body feels” afterwards. I am very happy to have found this friendly class which makes him aware of his body and helps him improve his… core strength. I’ve also noticed a difference in his posture, for example he sits straighter at the dinner table, so I’m hoping we can avoid a slouchy teenager in a couple of years’ time! Thank you Susana!

I booked Kids Pilates for a Scout night. We had great feedback from Scouts and parents about how they enjoyed experiencing a different kind of physical activity. I felt the session was well planned for our younger scouts and actively engaged their mental participation as well as physical. They were made aware of the benefits of the stretches and taught a bit about the body. A nice holistic experience and some great photos!

My 10 years old daughter started one-to-one classes in January. She really enjoyed private lessons on zoom and now moved onto a group class. Susana is very knowledgeable and skilled Pilates teacher and I can see how kids just love exercising with her. Thanks for your hard work Susana!

My 7 year old daughter has had some remote Pilates sessions with Susana and has really enjoyed them. At first I was doubtful about whether remote sessions would keep her attention, but Susana kindly offered a free tester session and it went really well, so we carried on! Susana is very encouraging and makes the session fun with lots of imagination and description.

Susana is fabulous. My 7 year old daughter, hypermobile, has been doing one to one remote Pilates with Susana for 8 sessions. She is really good with children. She has kept her focused and motivated and pays attention to her technique. I think this exercise js very beneficial to my daughter and I’m glad we found such a good specialist in children. Thank you Susana!
