This was wonderful!! I attended the hips to toes workshop and it really helped see where I was stiff and inflexible. Will continue to use the moves taught plus Carmel sent us links and advice to continue the poses. Will help me to improve my Samba moves. Thank you and see you at the next course x

I have attempted yoga several times in my life and each time I sustained an injury or was put off by the acrobatics of the instructor. Carmel's Stretch and Yoga classes are so different! They are very user friendly and Carmel never makes anyone feel awkward or that they should have attained a certain level by now. Having said that, Carmel has a caring and positive manner that intrinsically motivates one to do better and to get the best out of themselves and the class. I just love Carmel and her classes!

I have been doing Carmel's Stretch Class for well over 2 years. Carmel is always open to hear my concerns and those of my class mates and to tailor the class to help alleviate issues. Challenging at times - yes, but in a good way.
I have also attended chair yoga and find these almost as good in the way they stretch tight muscles.
In this day and age it is wonderful to meet genuine caring people who enjoy what they are doing.

So glad I discovered Carmel’s Stretch Therapy classes. I felt release of deep held tension from my neck and shoulders after just 1 session. She is an excellent instructor, very knowledge and adjusts positions for different people’s ability levels and injuries. I’ll definitely be attending her classes for the long term.

I discovered Carmel's wonderful stretch class late in 2016, and have been attending on and off ever since. It does wonders for tight and sore muscles and keeps help pain under control, and the small class size means individual attention and a fun atmosphere.

I started Stretch Therapy at The Better Movement Studio the beginning of 2018 after spraining my back.
I am still attending nearly a year later. Carmel has aided in my recovery and has helped me with other issues such as chronic neck pain.
I thoroughly recommend Better Movement Studio to anyone who suffers from neck and back pain as it is greatly beneficial.

I have been attending Louise Holfield's Pilates class for the last six months. I love her enthusiasm, her care for all of us in the class who have various different physical challenges, her hands on approach to correct when needed, the mix up of exercises every week and the opportunity to push further on the difficulty level if we are up to it. The hour flies by and I feel so good at the end of each session. Highly recommend.

I've been doing a Stretch Therapy class with Carmel once a week for over 3 years and the benefits, both physically and mentally, have been wonderful. Being in my 50's and having a desk job I was always feeling so 'rusty' but that all changed when I discovered Stretch Therapy. Carmel is extremely knowledgeable, caring and kind and she makes everyone feel nurtured and valued. You will love the relaxation session at the end of the class!

My daughters attend the Kids Yoga at Findon Swim School. The classes are very small allowing the instructor to really get to know and understand the personality and needs of each individual. Their instructor Bel is calm, caring and friendly and my girls love working with her. They often practise the techniques they are being taught at home together which is wonderful bonding for the two of them and helps reinforce the principles they are learning. An excellent studio has been created and is a great find for our family.

I'm attending Chair Yoga with Carmel. It's one of the best decisions I've made. Carmel is an amazing leader who patiently, kindly and skilfully shares her knowledge with us. I feel a sense of personal achievement at the end of every session. I am not young and definitely not thin but Carmel is always positive and encouraging.
