Alex, Professional Footballer - Reformer Pilates Client

​"I used to always have problems with my hips and lower back pains due to a very active lifestyle. Since starting Reformer Pilates Edinburgh with Heather those pains and issues have been replaced by strength and flexibility. Heather's sessions provide an enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere. I would highly recommend these sessions to anyone looking to get involved." 

Oliver, Reformer & Mat Pilates Client

"After years of quietly suffering with a disability and having done physio therapy for over a year with little result, Heather recommenced I try Pilates. Having done some mat work in the past I was a little sceptical about this. The results are excellent. I have over 6 cm more reach and can see and feel a massive difference in my posture. I cannot recommenced Sano Studio more."

Fee, Reformer Pilates Client

"Love Sano Studio!
Have been doing Reformer Pilates with Heather for a couple of years now, first of all to tone up for my wedding and I loved it so much I stuck with it, through every venue she’s been to until finding their home in their brilliant Morningside studio!
I’ve carried on doing Reformer throughout my pregnancy, in the comfort of knowing Heather’s clinically trained in pre-natal. The class sizes are great that it can still feel personal (but you’re not being picked on!) and everyone’s abilities are taken into consideration.
Would recommend Sano Studio to anyone looking to start Reformer Pilates or looking for a new studio.

After just having a baby, my back was so sore , Heather sorted all my aches and pains and I left feeling so relaxed with no back pain. I would definitely recommend Sano Studio. I will be back.

Lee, Massage Client

"I used to always have problems with my hips and lower back pains due to a very active lifestyle. Since starting Reformer Pilates with Heather those pains and issues have been replaced by strength and flexibility. Heather's sessions provide an enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere. I would highly recommend these sessions to anyone looking to get involved." 

Alex, Professional Footballer 
Reformer Pilates Client

"As a newbie to Pilates, not least Reformer Pilates, Heather has navigated me through the exercises brilliantly. It is always a very enjoyable session with evident benefits to my core strength and flexibility. Heather places the classes very well and keeps you on a constant pathway of progression."
