Client Corner

It is always rewarding to hear success stories from our clients:

Today is bittersweet to me as it is our last workout together. We have been working together for almost a year now and in our journey, I am a new person because of you.

When I first came to you, I was at my heaviest at 202 pounds. I am 5'9" and carry my weight all over so it didn't look as bad as it sounds, but I was in the obese category and was desperate for help. I have tried other programs in the past but i needed the one on one that I thought a trainer would give me.

I was right!! You helped me stay on track with my food logs and work out schedule even when I didn't want to do them or got discouraged. I now understand what to eat (which was my biggest issue) and what exercises to do and how much. My mind set is completely changed and so is my body.

This is not a diet, it is a life change. I always heard that from magazines, but I now know what they are saying. It isn't hard to prep the food for the week and keep them in the freezer for your lunches. I found it actually easier as there was no thougbt to it. I have an extremely busy life and with your help, I was able to balance my diet and workouts that worked for me and my family.

Thank you so much for all that you taught me in the last year. I have the tools to continue on my own, but will miss meeting with you for our chats. I am now 168 pounds which is the lowest I have been since I was in college. I feel comfortable in clothes and I now have muscles!! The positive comments from everyone aren't so bad either!!

Forever grateful,

Jen

More inspiration!

Dear Kim:
 
My name is Kathleen and I am currently participating in the 21 day Sugar Detox workshop given on Tuesday night.
 
I want to thank you for what you are bringing to our community in terms of programs such as yoga, fitness, nutrition, etc.   I know that this is how you make your livelihood but were it not for your business and personal visions, I would not be participating in such workshops.
 
The fact that the workshop are local and are win-win for everyone are a big part of what urges me to enlist when I see courses of interest.   Often we give credit to the facilitator and the latter should receive credit for their knowledge and facilitation skills but we forget that it is you who is hiring the right people and putting on the right workshops for us residents if we choose to take advantage of such an opportunities.
 
Many thanks, Kim.

Corporate Wellness in the Workplace Testimonials

Debbie D., York Region Teacher
Last year we began a yoga class for teachers after school. Body Design offered an excellent instructor who came to our workplace, making it convenient for staff to participate. The experience was wonderful in terms of team building and creating a general sense of well-being in the school. The encouraging atmosphere in the yoga class has given many teachers the confidence to continue their journeys towards wellness and self-improvement. Thanks for an amazing year!


Jennie C., York Region Teacher
Being relatively new to yoga, there were a number of reasons I particularly enjoyed the workplace classes starting with the Body Design instructor who created a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. She took the time to thoroughly explain each pose and the exact areas of my body to engage. I loved that she was able to guide me in a discovery of body energy, movement and alignment. Before class I often felt very fatigued from the day's work, yet after the session I felt re-energized and balanced, which kept me going throughout the week. Another added bonus was that I didn’t have to travel anywhere to take the class as it was right down the hall from my classroom!
