Balance Bloom Pilates

Almost a year ago, I sustained a back injury during a weights class at the gym. I was in severe pain and unable to walk for a week and was looking at a long and slow rehab. My physio – also a trained Pilates instructor, suggested that starting with some gentle Pilates stretches would help with getting back some mobility, and might reduce the numbness in my leg caused by the disc protrusion. After a couple of months of re-hab with my physio, I contacted Luci Harrison, who assessed my physical limitations, and started me on a gentle programme of Pilates on her reformer machine. Each week, Luci would make changes to the work-out, targeting different muscles with slight adjustments to the machine. After a couple of months, Luci had increased my confidence in my movements, and I had regained some core strength. After 6 months of seeing Luci every week and incorporating a group Pilates class and some at-home exercises into my weekly routine, I am the strongest and most toned I have been for many years. I would highly recommend Luci!

It is very beneficial to have the pilates programme tailored to my particular needs. Luci is very explicit about what is required and I leave each sessions knowing I have had a beneficial workout. Her flexibility with both in person and online session times ensures consistency when Life is so busy.

I highly recommend Balance and Bloom Pilates in the heart of Parnell tucked away in a sunny studio space. Luci is highly skilled and works with clients to get the best results for strength and flexibility
