Pilates Studio 165 Testimonials

"I have no hesitation in recommending Anna as a pilates instructor, she really is quite extraordinary. I was recommended to Anna by my osteopath to help with debilitating headaches I have suffered for many years. Having tried almost every medical and 'alternative' therapy, nothing seemed to work for any period of time, until Anna. She diagnosed me instantly, was confident she could help, and the results have been remarkable. Anna's knowledge of the body and skilful technique are really first rate, and the sessions leave one with a sense of wellbeing. Add to that a great personality and you can ask for nothing more."

Jan Rowland - BBC Chief Operating Officer, Drama, Entertainment & Children's.

"I have worked with Campbell for nearly ten years and in that time I have literally grown several centimeters taller and have a stronger, leaner body than ever before. I am so much more flexible and I am much more self aware."

Michael Hirsch - Film Producer

"I have been working with Anna Tetlow for the past year and cannot recommend her highly enough. Anna has always shown the highest level of professionalism and knowledge of pilates. I have found working with her exceptionally beneficial."

Ralph Fiennes - Actor

"Over the past decade of frequenting private pilates classes at Studio 165 I have found Campbell to be a wonderful teacher and role model. He is patient and thoughtful and practises what he teaches in his everyday life. It is clear that he is dedicated to each and every one of his clients."

Angela Scaffidi - Company director and Studio 165 regular.

"Anna's understanding of anatomy and physiology has enabled me to work very closely with her in developing an effective rehabilitation programme. It has been an excellent relationship, helpful to me and beneficial to my patients. During the course of our partnership we have worked closely together to achieve the best and safest results for my patients. It has been a very fruitful relationship which has often included travel as far as Los Angeles to offer patients our distinctive treatment plan. Her caring manner and patient relationship skills are a unique attribute."

"Pilates Studio 165 has changed my life! I used to suffer so badly with shoulder and neck issues that I was miserable (and practically disabled). I had tried various practitioners to no avail. Then I tried pilates and to this day I go weekly - it has enabled me to continue working on a computer and to be able to do 'normal' things like clean my house, carry shopping, etc. I highly recommend this studio and am so grateful I found it when I did!"

Georgina Roussis - long term studio client

"The Garuda is a uniquely excellent training tool, which can transform your body shape. In my observation, students, including myself, practising the Garuda technique seem to become lengthened and toned after remarkably few sessions. Kudos to James D’Silva for creating a technique that maximizes your body's potential."

Trudie Styler - actress, director and producer

"As an osteopath, I feel blessed to have encountered Garuda and more especially to be working in close collaboration with the people who have developed it. It is a unique apparatus that allows endless different type of exercises. I recommend Garuda for rehabilitation, core strengthening, body awareness, coordination, flexibility and general fitness. It is not only the best of its category, it’s also fun - I use it whenever I can."

Boniface Verney-Carron - osteopath

"It is always such a pleasure visiting pilates studio 165. They offer ultimate professionalism and the highest standard of training in the industry today! I have gained so much from their sessions and believe it can transform your body, mind and soul for a healthier life."

Kirsty Martins - Principal dancer The Australian Ballet

"I suffer from chronic neck/shoulder pain for 3 years and have tried many treatments in the past without success. I have been attending classes at Studio 165 for 2 years now and under her guidance, I have strengthened my muscles and stabilised my core allowing me to not only cope and control my chronic pain, but also have my second child during this time."

Cyndee Ng

"I was quite anxious about getting pregnant for a third time, having suffered from severe pelvic instability during my second pregnancy and continuing after the birth - I had very little core strength, a sore lower back and pubic symphisis pain, all of which was quite debilitating. The most minor tasks had become quite painful - I had trouble walking up and down stairs, lifting my toddler and even getting dressed!

Campbell and Anna were fantastic, under their instruction and guidance I was able to regain some core strength, and target specific muscles using their range of equipment. I always felt that I was in safe hands, as they expertly guided me through the various exercises. They understood my body and its various quirks and limitations (hypermobility and no strength is not a good combination!) They guided me through my third pregnancy, continuing to work on my strength, and my recovery was great. Thank You!"

Susie Wilcox - Lawyer, pregnancy and post-natal client

"Pilates Studio 165 keeps me moving! As a retired professional athlete, I have an elevated appreciation of what a quality pilates workout should be. Anna and Campbell not only have great facilities and knowledge of their practice, but as former ballet dancers, they have an intuitive and deeper connection to the original concept and design of pilates. Quite simply, they present a comprehensive and balanced program that helps me maintain my core strength whilst enhancing suppleness and flexibility so that I am no longer a prisoner within my own body! :)"

Ex-professional Basketballer

"As an ex-professional dancer and a current Pilates instructor, and having completed Level 1 Garuda equipment training, I have become enthusiastic about the extent and freedom of movement capable through the Garuda repertoire. The Pilates principles of precision, concentration, control, breath, range and flow of movement are clearly relevant during the execution of the exercises. I understand Garuda to be an enhancement of and complementary to the Pilates training and practice with which I have been so familiar. I would encourage everyone to experience the challenge of the Garuda repertoire and the satisfaction achieved as a direct result of the workout."
