FEEDBACK FROM CLIENTS
F S2 June 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve recently joined Silverback Studios and have been having tailored sessions with Dawn and Ellen. They are absolutely amazing! Both are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and really take the time to personalise each session to fit my needs and goals. You can tell they’re passionate about what they do and genuinely care about your progress. The studio itself is in a great location, easy to get to, and a really positive, welcoming space. I’m already seeing results and feeling better, both mentally and physically. Highly recommend to anyone looking for professional, friendly, and motivating support! M C14 May 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend…Over 4 years I have enjoyed coming to the classes and the range of options they have from cardio intense to stretching. All the instructors have their own unique style which makes all the classes enjoyable and rewarding. I started out looking for a place to bring my 6 week boy and to start doing some Pilates to help with my core and posture. I loved that you could bring the pram easily through the doors as there isn’t many places that don’t have stairs so I could bring my pram in. From then I have noticed a huge improvement in my back strength and core I am thankful for my time with the team and with all the people that I have met throughout this time. Thank you so much Dawn, Ellen, Rachel and all the instructors for all that you do ❤️ P D16 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. STOP!! This IS exactly what you’re looking for. Workout options that suit everyone. Friendly people to moan, groan and laugh with cause you’re all in it together. A hands on, approachable owner who really cares about every single client. Do yourself a favour you will not regret it. Pinky promise A14 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I joined Silverback in December of last year because I wanted to improve my running and cycling. I entered the 14.4KM Run4 the Kids, which was in April this year. I really didn't think that my training leading up to the event was as good as it was last year, so I had no expectations about improving my time. To my shock and disbelief....I managed to run 8 min faster this year. The only thing I did differently was to go along to Silverback consistently twice a week. It was an outcome that I never expected.(For context, I'm 58... no spring chicken!). I heard Pilates was 'good', but it is an understatement. The instructors are amazing, and everyone is encouraged to work toward their own goals and abilities. What I really like is the combination of personalised instruction during the class, working hard on core strength and specific muscle groups, and grounding exercises to reduce stress and help me focus on just being there in the moment. I am really glad that I am a part of the Silverback experience. Thank you S10 March 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have attended few classes at silverback studio and loved it especially classes with Rachael. Plenty of parking around. Also has a nail salon and cafe next to it. Highly recommended, staff is lovely and at a convenient location. C L2 March 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A place where I feel completely comfortable and connected. This studio is fabulous. Small classes means a keen eye on technique. Going to Silverback is an absolute pleasure, never a chore like previous fitness experiences! Adding to my above review from over a year ago - which still stands, however wanted to recommend their expansion into Personalised Pilates. After a bout of pesky hip bursitis I wanted to hone right in on refining my form. After 8 sessions with Ellen 1:1 I have not only regained confidence, but my mind to body awareness has absolutely switched on. I've never felt more connected with how my body moves and what my mind needs to think to correct my sometimes poor posture or tendency to favour my right hip. If you want to feel the empowerment with mind-body connection, I wholeheartedly advise you book a series of 'Personalised Pilates' - my god.... SO GOOD! Thank you Dawn, Ellen and the whole Silverback team. You really do change lives. xx J O13 December 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Silverback Studios, why didn’t I join earlier?! Dawn and the team are ultimate professionals, the classes are well structured and no class is ever the same which I love. It’s one of the most welcoming exercise environments I’ve ever experienced. They cater for all ability levels and accommodate injuries with different variations offered so that everyone can get what they need from a class. I love being part of the Silverback community and have even made some wonderful friends too. I am loving getting stronger, fitter and more flexible with the Silverback crew. I highly recommend joining - you won’t regret it!! S K27 November 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a brilliant Pilates studio. The instructors are all so friendly and knowledgeable, supporting us all throughout the classes. The other clientele are all so lovely too. Silverback has managed to create such a wonderful little community. I joined for a month but definitely plan on extending my membership. M M22 November 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started Pilates classes a few months back at Silverback and absolutely love it. The quality and dedication of the team is amazing. I really like the attention provided to the participants to ensure posture and moves are correct. Also there is a great sense of community and fun including a recent organised studio birthday for its 4 year anniversary. Highly recommend. Thanks Dawn and team.
