I lived in fear of when my next episode would leave me on the floor!

The Pilates Method has been life changing for Lonia Catalano as it was the one thing that finally helped with her chronic back issues. Lonia had been living with chronic back pain and disc pathologies for a long time and saw so many allied health professionals to no avail. One day one of her professionals suggested she try pilates and as Lonia says in her video, she has not looked back since!

In this video you will also see Lonia perform the ‘Longbox Reformer Swan’ which is particularly hard for her.

Lonia has been practicing The Pilates Method now for 17 years and she is so passionate about it’s benefits that 5 years ago she decided to change careers to help others. Lonia is no longer a stressed out executive assistant and is instead a pilates instructor at Aligned for Life Pilates in Moonee Ponds.

“I lived in fear of when my next episode would leave me on the floor!”

It’s a work in progress and my range isn’t huge but for me it s a big workout just doing that exercise
