If you're seeking a professional Pilates instructor, seek no further. I have been working with Viraj Chang since 2014. I am a Spinal Cord Injury survivor. She stepped up to this challenge. Viraj pursued a routine and program that would work with my strengths to get me healthy and fit. Pilates has helped me tremendously and has changed my life. The Pilates methods of breathing combined with Reformer work will ignite your body.
Both my husband and I are now Pilates nerds and we love it! Viraj is extremely knowledgeable, customizes her approach to whatever you need, and is one of the nicest people you could ever meet. I can't imagine going to any other Pilates instructor or any other physical therapist; her ability to incorporate the two disciplines is incredibly helpful.
I did use my health plan's physical therapists for a short time after surgery because it was so inexpensive, but you truly get what you pay for. The difference with Viraj is the total attention to my individual needs, and her willingness to do whatever it takes to get me fully functional again.
