testimonials from clients at the energy moves

“The Energy Moves” is the perfect name for Seven’s Pilates instruction—because the energy truly does move. I always feel better after working with her. Seven is an exceptional instructor who understands the body deeply and knows exactly how to bring out its full potential. She guided me through rehab after hip surgery, and thanks to her I’m not only stronger and more flexible, but I got there without a single injury.
I’ve trained with her in large classes and in private sessions, and she never misses a thing. She’s knowledgeable, fully present, and somehow makes getting stronger and more agile genuinely fun. I can’t say enough good things about Seven and The Energy Moves!"

"As a general contractor, I was very tight in my back, hips and hamstrings. Seven's direction on how to benefit from the equipment allowed me to feel well again. "

testimonials from previous studio clients

"I tried Pilates for the first time when I was 2 months pregnant, and I have been going to classes regularly ever since!! My body is way more open and relaxed than in any prenatal yoga class that I have taken.
Seven has a wonderful way of recognizing where your problem areas are and addressing them, tailoring each session for each person.
I always feel much more grounded, relaxed and in tune with my body after Sevens class!"

"Seven Sparks is the an incredible teacher and person. I've been through countless Pilates instructors and I can say with absolute confidence and certainty that I have never experienced a more nurturing, and knowledgeable teacher than Seven"

"I am not the kind of person who normally takes exercise classes, but after a hysterectomy, I developed a pain in my abdomen that traditional medicine couldn't seem to alleviate. Out of pure desperation, I decided to try pilates at a studio in Manhattan where I was working at the time. Within a few weeks, I was feeling much better and enjoying all sort of additional benefits. Much like Jennifer N., I felt like pilates changed my life.

Once I was back home in Humboldt, I sought out a local studio and found Sacred Bodies Pilates, which I found to be every bit as good as the one I attended in Manhattan. Owner and instructor Seven Sparks is a delight. Always professional and caring, she is knowledgeable and takes her job very seriously. If you've never tried Pilates before, but are curious, SBP is a great place to start. And if you're a veteran, Seven can definitely deliver a serious workout."

"Pilates has changed my life. I started going nine months ago to prepare for two major knee surgeries to strengthen my body to help with recovery. After my latest surgery in San Francisco, I came to Eureka to recover and wanted to continue Pilates for the two months while in Humboldt.

Seven Sparks, the owner and instructor, was not afraid to take me on and tailor instruction for my needs. I credit her training for helping me recover as well as I have and keep my entire body moving while on crutches. I am so impressed by Seven's knowledge of the human anatomy and her professionalism during our sessions. The studio space is also fabulous and a great feel. Book time with her now before she gets too busy!!!!"
