At 62 years old, I have been looking for a new way to get strength without lifting weights. I love the workout I get and the reformer equipment takes all the pressure off my joints. I get the benefit of toning my muscles without the added strain on my back and knees. Vanessa has a top notch facility and the gals that teach with her are wonderful. I take classes and have signed up for more private lessons with Emily. You can't go wrong here, no matter what your age.
