Saved my LIFE!!!! December 11, 2008
I was first referred to Elizabeth by my OBGYN during my second pregnacy. I was having complications with my pregnacy early on with gallstones and later had to have my gallbadder removed when I was 9 wks pregnant. Durning this whole time, I was just down and out about my pregnancy. Thinking I would loose the baby at any turn. With Elizabeths classes and this book, I was able to regain and eventually enjoy my pregnancy. It saved my life in so many ways and I know it will do the same for so many other.
This is what pilates is all about!!! May 2, 2008

This book was an amazing tool during the pregnacy (and birth) of my second child. The exercises are described in amazing detail which is extrememly helpful if one is unfamiliar with pilates. On the other hand, it can also be challenging to those who are at an advanced level, who have been doing pilates for years. That is the beauty of this book. It can be catered to each and every individual based on their personal needs and goals. There are protocols for every stage of the pregnancy which is helpful if you are unsure of what to do. This book strengthened both my body and mind and gave me a true understanding of the pilates principles. The only problem is that I didn't have this book with my first pregnancy! The aches and pains I experienced the first time around were non existent, and I felt so much stronger during the actual labor and birth. I also seem to be getting my body back a lot faster this time. Highly recommended!

Elizabeth is a gifted teacher and has a wonderful way of seeing the human body. Her years of experience in dance and Pilates along with her own journey of giving birth (four times!) make her a wonderful partner for any mother-to-be. Whether you're already in shape and looking to stay fit during your pregnancy or you want to improve your fitness prior to the birthing process, Elizabeth's book is an excellent guide!
Great workbook for getting your body ready for birth. September 18, 2007

When my wife and I found out that we were expecting our first child, being that we both teach Pilates, we went straight for this workbook. Knowing the level of quality that Elizabeth puts into her woork, the book was the same. Top Notch. Thanks for the insight for a birthing plan too. Elizabeth and Sam... you Rock!
