clients & testimonials

As an early follower of the Pilates method of exercise, I used to take lessons from a young woman who accepted private clients in a studio in the District of Columbia. When she decided to move to the West Coast, she compiled for me a list of other qualified Pilates instructors who could take over my program. Kelly Evans Bradley’s name caught my attention, as among her credentials was a graduate degree in physical therapy. Mindful of my sports-related injuries, I felt that Kelly would bring expertise to handling my particular case.
My judgment about Kelly was prescient. Now in her fifth year as my Pilates teacher, she has been outstanding. Especially noteworthy is that, during this period, she has taken every opportunity to hone her skills, and to learn new ones, so that in addition to being a physical therapist, she has received advance certification in gyrotonics, yoga, therapeut ic massage, and nutrition. Thus, she is trained in virtually every aspect of the new field of “wellness,” in which she never misses a chance to indoctrinate her clients.
During my twice-weekly sessions with Kelly, she leads me through exercises on both Pilates and gyrotonics equipment. This has worked out well for my needs, resulting in significant relief of symptom in all areas. By the end of each week, I take comfort that nearly all the muscle groups in my body have had a thorough workout carefully pre-planned by Kelly, enhancing my level of fitness on a continuing basis. I have also experienced added strength and endurance in my aerobic activities, particularly in my swimming regimen.
Kelly is not only a highly qualified teacher of Pilates and gyrotonics, she is in reality a competent healthcare professional. And because of her patient and caring approach, she is quite popular with her20clients, and in great demand as a speaker and panelist in the field.

Kelly is about to take a brief maternity leave to deliver her second child, in which I wish her the best. I will certainly look forward to her return
