It's hard to summarise in just a few sentences how pleasant this experience has been for me personally.

When I came to my first session, I doubted I would stay long. I stayed for years (mainly individual sessions, plus group sessions and personal training sessions for pregnant women). The experience has been excellent: a kind, inspiring and competent trainer, varied and versatile training plans, additional counselling — I have only ever recommended it with the highest praise. My physical and mental fitness have also improved significantly. I definitely consider the decision to go to Fitness Formula one of my best!

Of course I could say much more about the flexible attitude and positive approach. On top of that, I am certain that thanks to Pilates, I have no idea what (pregnancy-related) back pain even feels like. I also use(d) an old friend — a large exercise ball — to this day (it was helpful both at home and during childbirth). I probably wouldn't even know about that ball without Pilates :):).

In any case, I am deeply grateful for all the time I have been able to train under your guidance, and I hope the opportunity to start coming again will arise.

I have been attending Pilates on Pikk Street for 14 years. Over that time, we have developed our own language for describing bodily awareness. We squeeze a lemon, pull threads from the tops of our heads, feel light as air, or peel the skin off our backs. I have learned how to use the gluteus maximus and medius, the serratus muscles, how to press down the trapezius, and much more. I leave every session with a floating lightness and a wonderful mood. This is not just physical exercise — it is something much more. I get my body into alignment, I get my life into alignment, I can do more at a sporting level (run, play tennis, etc.) and work more comfortably in the office. Tiina is an outstanding trainer — she seems to see right inside you. It feels as though she can read your thoughts. If you think things can't get any better: at a professional level she is the absolute best in Estonia, and on top of that she is understanding, empathetic, wholly sincere and lovely as a person. She approaches each individual personally — it's like a bespoke suit she masterfully tailors and fits to you. I recommend Fitness Formula Pilates absolutely to everyone. There is no person for whom she could not tailor that suit!

I joined Fitness Formula Pilates training as someone completely removed from sport — I had barely even participated in physical education classes. In Tiina's sessions I learned to understand my body, its strengths and weaknesses, and above all to feel my muscles. It is entirely thanks to this that I feel confident and comfortable in other workouts and at the gym today. I am deeply grateful both for this and for the skill of sensing and caring for my body, which has been of great benefit to me in everyday life. I definitely recommend Pilates and Fitness Formula to everyone!

I came to your sessions 11 years ago, having received a recommendation from my psychologist to create the best possible version of my existing self. Being a diligent sort, I looked in the mirror and decided that something needed to be done about this sagging body and non-existent self-esteem. I don't remember how I ended up discovering this "American yoga." But I made it to the session. Even though I attended quite irregularly over the years, that once-a-week lying on a mat and wiggling my toes had an incredible effect — for massage, relaxation, and achieving remarkable physical fitness. As you know, there are now three of us coming to your sessions. Perhaps the best compliment to you is that Enno pushed himself to come along with me, because "he wants to be in as good shape as me"... Having attended many different types of exercise, Pilates is still my favourite — especially under your guidance — you are an INCREDIBLY talented, skilled and empathetic trainer, thank you! It is such an incredibly effective, relaxing and at the same time pleasantly addictive form of movement that truly suits everyone and is especially injury-free.
