I have been attending the Harmony Yoga and Pilates Studio on a weekly basis for over 3 years. I started with the studio as my doctors and physiotherapist recommended I try Pilates in order to relieve my chronic back pain. My pain was 7-8/10, which limited my daily activities and significantly affected my ability to sleep.
