“Helping Achieve a Bucket List “Total Success”

“Having just completed a 9-day trekking tour in Peru, which included hiking/climbing the very challenging 4-day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, I have to credit my twice-weekly Pilates training at Uncommon Movement for contributing to my total success on the route.”

“We covered so much rocky and uneven terrain, at altitudes of 9000 to almost 14,000 feet, on consecutive 6+ hour-days on the trail. Kandace’s Reformer Sculpt class and Justine’s Jump/Cardio & Strength Reformer class helped me build core and overall strength, fine-tune my balance, and increase stamina – all of which got me through long days of moving over rock, carrying a pack, and using poles to spread the workload. I returned fatigued, but not injured or burned out, and happy to get right back to my Pilates workouts. This kind of travel is exactly what I wanted to be able to do in retirement, but I might not have expected I could do it as successfully at age 64. Thanks to all the professionals at Uncommon Movement for making this bucket-list trip a wonderful experience!”
