    Liesl is an excellent instructor. Her Pilates classes have been very helpful with getting stronger muscles and improving flexibility. Liesl manages to provide personal attention to everyone and adjusts the exercises to fit individual health conditions.

    I started going to Liesl’s lessons because of an extremely painful L4/L5 disc issue. She is a very good teacher and I am gradually making progress in alleviating the pain. I always expected it to take a whole, but the direction of travel is positive.

    I’ve been doing Pilates with Liesl for a few years and absolutely love her classes. She’s very careful about meeting the physical needs of everyone and keeping a close eye on safe practice. Can’t recommend her highly enough.

    Have been attending classes now for almost three years. Liesl is a patient teacher and ensures that over a term of classes all areas of the body are exercised. Warm and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended. Steve

    I have done classes with Liesl for a number of years now, firstly in a hall and then when Covid struck via Zoom. Liesl is aware of her students problems and regularly checks with everyone offering alternate exercises when needed. I have moved away from London but still do the classes via zoom. It always amazes me how Liesl is still able to see if there is a problem even via lap top! The class is fun and as challenging as the individual student wants. Highly recommend

    Liesl's classes are the best! She plans her classes very thoroughly, takes trouble to work on different parts of the body each week and to vary the classes. She gives feedback so we don't develop bad habits while always being warm and encouraging.

    I attended Liesl’s Pilates classes for seven years due to lower back problems but when Covid happened, I stopped. Last year I started doing Pilates again at my workplace - these are free classes and the teacher is lovely but, unfortunately, she is not Liesl. So I am now back where I started! Tomorrow will be my third session with Liesl and I’m already noticing an improvement on my lower back pain. Liesl is experienced, knowledgeable and kind, with a calm demeanour. She is able to adapt her classes to individual needs so you feel truly well looked after. I like it here and I am staying. Thank you Liesl!

    Liesl is a very experienced Pilates instructor, and I love her classes. She has a great teaching style and varies the content of the classes to keep it interesting and stretching. Her expertise and understanding of how our bodies work really stands out, and her warmth and care for her students shines through. I have been with Liesl for several years after suffering a back injury, and I highly recommend her.

  • 5/5 Laura Rodriguez L. 5 years ago on Google
    Great teacher, great classes! I had such a good experience attending at Liesl classes: wide range of different exercises, adding challenge even when they seem easy! Liesl is thoughtful in every case but even more if you have some limitation. Highly recommend her!!

  • 5/5 Helen E. 3 years ago on Google
    Liesl's Pilates classes have offered a welcomed structure and time to reflect during lockdown. She is a very welcoming teacher, makes all members of the class feel comfortable, adjusts the exercises for different abilities and takes a keen interest in her students. I've noticed positive differences since taking her classes. Each class is varied and I've particularly enjoyed the breathing exercises at the end of each class. Thanks Liesl.

  • 5/5 Darren R. 2 years ago on Google
    Liesl is an excellent and very attentive instructor. She always asks how everyone is before the class starts, and gives specific advice on which Pilates moves to do if she has been told that you have an injury, or difficulty with a particular part of your body.

    I took up Pilates nearly 4 years ago and it has helped my posture and well being, Liesl is motivational and engaging so that classes are always enjoyable, my balance has improved and it is a good antidote to a stressful day.

    The best pilates classes in town. As a tennis coach I recommend all my pupils to sign up to increase flexibility and core strength for tennis.

  • 5/5 Mani C. 5 years ago on Google
    It has been really good to strengthen the core muscles and generally feel more fit. The exercise classes are a great discipline and Liesl’s focused approach ensures we all do the exercises correctly and tailored to our own individual limits.

    I have done Pilates on and off for many years with various teachers, but I can honestly say Liesl is an incredible teacher. Her calm teaching manner allows you to follow the exercises, and her classes are always interesting. I have definitely felt a positive improvement in my shoulder mobility and strength since starting her classes.

    This was the first time I have done Pilates and I really enjoyed it! Liesl was brilliant and clear with instructions, helping to adjust my positions when needed. Definitely felt it in my core which was great!

    Liesl is an amazing pilates teacher. She is kind, warm and knowledable. The lessons are varied, well planned and I thoroughly enjoy them. I would definitely recommend Liesl

  • 5/5 Delphine S. 3 years ago on Google
    Liesl is a fantastic Pilates teacher. She is kind and gentle, her instructions are clear and precise, and her lessons varied and meticulously prepared. She knows her students well and can make adjustments according to their needs. She rose to the challenge of delivering virtual lessons very quickly during this pandemic and our weekly video lessons made lockdown a little less dreary. I would highly recommend Protea Pilates.
