Testimonials:
"We have been going to Edna Levy’s Bodylight Studio in for nearly 4 years now.
With busy lives and other activities to occupy our time, we did not think that Pilates/Yoga was for us – however one session with Edna in her “Oasis of Calm’ did the trick and we are now hooked.
Each session, in the fully equipped studio, is never the same and Edna tailors the exercises to suit each person in the group.
It is with pleasure that we recommend Edna and her Bodylight Studio. " -Jan, Leigh and Jan
" Thank you so much, this morning's class with Edna was again just what I needed: gentle stretches for neck and other tight body areas combined with focus on good posture and core engagement. What you are creating is so wonderful" - Michaela
"Hi Edna,
Just wanted to send you a message of Gratitude....my body feels fabulous today. Each and every session it feels better and better to be in my vessel. Such a nice feeling to dance in joy again." - Teresa
"My physiotherapist suggested Pilates to strengthen back muscles and I found that Edna puts you at ease straight away with her pleasant warm manner. The exercises are tailored to your needs, and I found after doing a few one to one sessions that my core muscle strength had improved immensely. I have continued with group sessions that are a very enjoyable way to keep muscles strong & toned.
The caring, friendly atmosphere at Bodylight studio is great and both body and mind benefit." -Judy
"Change happens through movement and movement heals"
