Owner Art of Movement (NL).
Actually I have longed to learn “SmartSpine” from you for years, and the dream has finally come true in last week!!
I learned a lot from every single minute or second with you. It is definitely difficult to digest all works done with you in short time, and I know it takes times years and years, but it is absolutely fantastic way of studying and deepening and exploring my study of Pilates, bodywork and manual therapy along with studying of Judo-Therapy at the moment.
I was so excited when you told about scar tissue and the risks of surgery in your fascia workshop about year ago, because I recognized I had a right decision to study Judo- Therapy.
I am now in the final year of the 3-year training of the Judo- Therapy and I have the national exam in coming March. The Judo-Therapy is Japanese conservative manual therapy which is based on Japanese Traditional treatment of musculoskeletal and soft tissue injuries or damages without operation/ surgery. I’ve got a qualification of Swedish body massage when I was in London, so I wish I can combine all studies of Judo- Therapy, dance science, massage and SmartSpine with Pilates. It is exactly the “Teach and Treat” which I wish I can accomplish.
I’d be very pleased if you have interest about one of Japanese original manual therapies, Judo-Therapy (http://kyobun.ac.jp/english/seihuku/).
I just want to tell you “thank you so much” again and also thank you so much for the reviewing program on the website of the FUSION Pilates. It is very very helpful to revise the works.
I really look forward to studying with you and seeing you again in Japan. I am very grateful to you for your teaching, generous help and lot of love.
I know you are incredibly busy, so I sincerely hope you will take good care of yourself.
Kindest regards

I am excited and looking forward to becoming an ambassador for your program. And I will also be signing up to distribute your products soon!
I know Sarah and I both are up for what ever you need us to do to become ambassadors. Not sure if you have a timeline for it, but I will be doing a lot more directing in my dance company next season because our artistic director is taking a sabbatical so I would love to look at dates when you get them to plan any trips I might need to take! I look forward to spending more time with you.
Thank you again,
Susan Honer
It took me a week to get the entire SmartSpine kit working in full swing, but once I started, I couldn’t stop! It’s been fun to play with the pieces and see how they help support and ease my clients into their neutral position. Once there, they immediately feel more awareness of their inner unit players. I used it at room temperature for a week and a half until my warming cabinet arrived a few days ago. Oh, my gosh; the warmth has taken my clients where they’ve never been before and I’ve enjoyed watching them experience it. They love everything about SmartSpine–the subtle, fresh, lavender scent, the weight, the shapes and the warmth. It’s been overwhelmingly helpful for all of us and I’ve only just begun to learn!
How can I thank you for all the work you did prior to getting SmartSpine on the market, making it available to transform so many lives, clients and teachers alike? I’ve begun my transformation and I’m witnessing my clients begin to evolve right before my eyes. I felt the power of SmartSpine that emotionalSaturday morning; I could feel myself being guided outside of my comfort zone and I knew it was impossible to resist.
I know you have heard what I’ve said about SmartSpine before but I couldn’t hold back my praise for an amazing product invented by a brilliant woman. I feel so very honored to know you.
With love and gratitude,

Her Smart Spine manipulation in conjunction with heat is second-to-none when it comes to rehabilitative work in a Pilates framework. As someone who now deals with clients in a clinic environment, I’ve directly seen its beneficial effects. Building on the Eve Gentry approach, Marie José is undoubtedly this generation’s genuine Pilates ‘healer’.
