Pilates Testimonials
Since starting Pilates 8 months ago with Deb Bowen, I have lost a total of 25 inches from my frame. Pilates comes across as effortless, yet I can feel the changes occurring after each session. The strength I now have feels powerful but not overly muscular. I stand taller. I work from my core. I am aware. Training with Deb and her staff has been wonderful. I feel as if I've expanded my circle of friends and I look forward to sessions whether it be in a private or group class. Pilates has been the one workout that I have stayed with because of how it makes me look and more importantly, feel.

 "My job as a wildland firefighter requires me to maintain a certain level of fitness. With as active as I am, I've had my share of tweeks and injuries. Most I have impatiently pushed through and as a result I have created a lot of muscular imbalances in my body. The hard I train the more pronounced the problem seems to get. It was recommended to me by my physical therapist to go back to working on the core basics with Pilates and target those muscles I've learned to live without by compensating with another. My experience with Debby Bowen and Rebound Pilates has far exceeded my expectations. Debby took the time to talk to my physical therapist in addition to her own visual assessment of my core strengths and weaknesses. Most importantly, to me, she took an active interest in my personal goals/expectations and always kept my physical limitations in mind so we could easily work through or around them. Debby is and excellent teacher and extremely attentive to detail, and she always challenged me with a new exercise or by bumping up the intensity of an old one. I have even applied what I have learned with Debby in other areas of my training and feel the differences. After the fire season I plan to resume Pilates with Debby and to continue strengthening my body from the inside out."

"My name is Kim Anderson and I am a Professional Cyclist. I was looking to improve my strength and flexibility during my off-season to prepare for the
2008 Olympic Season on the bike. Debby Bowen's Pilates classes were recommended and after one class I knew why. She teaches with passion and knowledge, and as an athlete, I find very motivating. Before I began classes she asked about my personal goals and what I most wanted to achieve. After a few weeks of classes and a few private sessions, I began to see those results in my core strength and "all over" flexibility, which was my primary goal. I would recommend Debby to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle and health for whatever reason. She's an excellent instructor, extremely knowledgeable and a beautiful example herself."

"For me being able to work with Deb for the 6wks while in Bend was great. I had a weak core and found great progress doing Pilates with Deb 3x a week. Being a professional cyclist I am always looking to improve my core strength and stability. I also recognized that the flexibility I gained thru Pilates improved my recovery time from workouts on the bike. I would recommend Pilates to any person whether athlete or individual wanting to keep from getting injured. Not only is it a good challenge with great benefits but Deb has the knowledge and makes it fun by switching up the exercises from week to week. I believe she has the desire and knowledge to help anyone achieve their goals."

"Three years ago I sustained a spinal chord injury leaving me with a full body paralysis. I have attempted many forms of therapy. Nearly one year ago I met Debby and began doing private Pilates sessions. My approach to rehabilitation since then has changed incredibly. I have a strong understanding of our body's muscular needs and I have found that Pilates is needed for proper strength and stability as well as a solid foundation. Drastic changes and mental understandings of my breathing, core strength, posture, graceful limb movements, heart rate and even footwork have all been addressed and been aided by these sessions. I recommend all individuals take Pilates techniques and implement them as a life style change to move lighter and with ease. I thank you Deb."

"Debby helped me on my healing journey as I recovered from a fractured femur. I took private Pilates lessons for 6 months, as I had to build up muscle strength and regain mobility and flexibility after being non-weight bearing for 3 months. Debby was very sensitive to my needs encouraging and I enjoyed working with her very much. She researched and prepared a program that was for my highest good and maximum recovery. She is very energetic, enthusiastic, motivating and supportive. I felt I got so much from every workout and was able to recover faster as a result of her expertise. I found her to be most knowledgeable and very professional. I would highly recommend her as a talented Pilates instructor and personal trainer."
