I was struggling to commit to a regular and consistent form of strengthening to complement my running but I have now been having Reformer sessions with Monika weekly for over 6 months. I had foot pain that despite good treatment and self-management I couldn't quite shift. I was impressed with Monika's knowledge and passion so decided to try her Reformer.
