“I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Katrin for the prenatal Pilates classes I attended! My baby boy was born on the 21st May and I found the Pilates knowledge I had gained in Katrin’s class invaluable during labour and delivery.” Ita L, June 2016

“Thanks so much to you all for keeping me strong and mobile during the pregnancy, all the Pilates really kept me going. I really can’t thank you all enough.” Edel H, Aug 2016
“I really cannot praise the Live & Breathe Pilates team highly enough. I have been enjoying and benefiting from their superb expertise for several years. During my pregnancy I attended the pre-natal class which was wonderful for building my strength and flexibility – I have no doubt it was a huge help during the birth of my baby girl and with my recovery (post section) afterwards. I also enjoyed bonding with my baby and exercising together at the Mother and Baby classes. More recently, I have been working with Steph Grey on a one-to-one basis to address some immobilising lower back and serious pelvic pain. Before beginning my sessions, the most simple of everyday tasks was a challenge – walking was uncomfortable, lifting my little girl was a struggle, rolling over was difficult, even standing from a seated position was tough. Now, I honestly cannot believe the difference. Initially, Steph consulted my physiotherapist and my medical reports to gain a real understanding of the issues at hand before designing a targeted programme for me. With her coaching, attention to detail and positive encouragement I started to see results within a matter of weeks. Steph builds on the programme each week and I am now able for exercises on the reformer that I wouldn’t ever have managed even in the whole of my health! Although we still have some way to go, I already feel like a new person. Thank you!” Elizabeth C, Sept 2015
“I thoroughly enjoyed Steph’s prenatal Pilates class during my recent pregnancy. Steph is an excellent instructor with significant experience. The different Pilates exercises were modified as my pregnancy progressed so I was able to continue classes until 38 weeks. As well as being really physically beneficial, it was a great way to meet other mums-to-be. I did not experience any back ache at all during my pregnancy and am certain this is due to my Pilates practice under Steph’s tuition.” Mary Collins
“I have been attending Steph’s classes for over 3 years now, including 2 sets of pre and post natal classes! I cannot recommend Steph highly enough, she is an excellent teacher and places great emphasis on doing the movements ‘technically’ right which is so important in Pilates. Steph’s classes are always friendly and welcoming. I have been so impressed with Steph’s philosophy of continuous improvement and commitment to her own professional development. I thoroughly enjoy the classes ( as does 6 month old baby Isaac at the moment!) and notice significant physical benefits from the work.” Mary C
