I was came to Summer Lopez and Pilates after decades  of chronic back pain due to an injury.  My doctors suggested Pilates more or less as a last resort and I was profoundly skeptical.  But it worked.  I felt much better within three months; within a year I was virtually pain free and had regained mobility I had not enjoyed since my teens.  Summer is a true professional and has an instinct for the mechanics of movement and spine alignment.  My Pilates class is the one appointment in my diary I never miss, unless I am traveling.   Pilates with Summer changed my life.
