  • Stretchology is a must, if you haven’t tried it, you need to. I know that I have extremely tight muscles but until I started doing Isobel’s classes I didn’t realise how bad they were. Since starting Isobel’s classes 2 years ago, every muscle has improved in flexibility and I thank her for the care and attention she gives to us all in her classes. Thank you Michele

    What an absolute pleasure to deal with someone’s who’s an expert in their field. Isobel’s way with me made me feel extremely comfortable was made to feel very at ease. A real joy! Thank you once again, Isobel!

    I attend a HIT class followed by Stretchology and both are excellent. Isobel’s knowledge of how the body works and what muscles we are targeting is insightful and vast. I find Stretchology keeps my body supple and helps keep niggly pains at bay. They’re great classes for all levels and hugely enjoyable. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

  • I cannot recommend highly enough Stretchology with Isobel! This is the class which I look forward to every week. This class gives time and space to pay loving attention to your body and stretch every muscle and joint under Isobel’s caring supervision. Along side physical benefits, it helps me to relax. Regardless of how busy or stressful my day had been, this is the class where I can reconnect with my inner self. Isobel has an incredible skill of running the class in a calm and attentive manner. She is absolutely brilliant.

    I had the pleasure of being one of the lucky individuals to attend Isobel’s retreat in Ibiza. A little nervous spending the week with a bunch of ladies I didn’t know but with Isobel and my friend Cara attending, I felt brave. I desperately needed a week to shut off from the noise of life and focus on me, something I rarely get to do. I had the most magical week… It surpassed all of my expectations and delivered on so many personal levels. The most amazing chef, Remko creating the most delicious, beautiful, and healthy food. Accommodation; stunning with the most wonderful staff looking after us. The right mix of activities; yoga, stretching, breath work, sound baths, massage, meditating, journaling, hiking, sun, swimming, eating, exploring, socialising, and connecting with myself and those around me. Most of all, I met a group of wonderful ladies with special friendships made. Isobel is clearly an expert at bringing likeminded, yet different people together. The week was truly magical, something I will always remember and treasure. I loved it – thinking, sharing, laughing (and I mean belly laughs), crying, healing, growing, and spending time with special people in a special place was truly tonic for my soul! I won’t mention the mosquitoes…little buggers. Thank you, Isobel xxx

    If you’re sick of doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome you need Isobel in your life! I’ve just finished my 10 minute morning stretch and breath work that she recommended and all the anxiousness about the amount of what I have to do today is replaced with calm and I’m full of gratitude and excitement for the day ahead. I’ve been doing this for a few weeks now and this change has genuinely altered how I approach each day. I’m so much calmer and any hurdles are easier to navigate. Previous attempts to change my behaviour went out of the window as they were unrealistic. Isobel listened to what I was struggling with and suggested something that she knew could specifically help me. This small shift has had a big impact. It’s given me the space and to reflect and decide to look after myself better. I feel less achy, have been eating better, sleeping better and have booked into the osteopath to sort out my wonky shoulder (something that’s been on my list for 8 months!!). I wholeheartedly recommend Isobel and A body for life if you do want to make a positive change. I have recognised I have my body (and mind) for life and want to make it the best it can be! Thank you Isobel x

  • I’ve been doing Isobels’ weekly Sat morning body tone and stretchologie classes for some time now. I love the energy Isobel brings to the classes and the knowledge she learns and retains about each of our individual body needs and limitations! Each week classes take on a new energy and a new playlist. Every class feels like a new class….only you find yourself doing it better than the last. If you want to work out, have some fun and follow up with an amazing stretch (and learn something new about the human body at every class) I would highly recommend a session with Isobel.

    Hi Isobel, I want to express my gratitude to you for hosting such a well structured and varied retreat programme in a beautiful location with excellent food and drink. It served to refresh me both physically and emotionally and I returned with a rejuvenated focus for what lies ahead and a determination to get around anything I can’t get over, and above all to keep breathing. It specifically lifted my spirits to meet and spend time with such agreeable companions throughout my retreat stay. In summary; mosquitoes aside I’d gladly do it all again!

    Five star rating from me! Isobel sorted out my back injury with a few treatments and some great advice for specific home exercises. Very professional and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone !
