Discover your center. Embrace your space.

After the session, I waited to assess myself because I wanted to be sure about what I was feeling. Well, I was very relieved because I had searched and searched for relief from a tension that I had always felt was a part of myself. And I couldn't find the source of the tension to let it go. After the session, I felt so relaxed and things started to change and I'm on my way again and I feel more light in my heart. Thank you so much for this beautiful experience.

Brenda is an incredible teacher and has helped shape the way I see and treat my own clients. As a teacher, she makes complex topics digestible and easy to understand that I leave each session with aha-moments, and yet she still gives me space to ponder and explore on my own. My tool library expanded immensely under her guidance and cannot thank her enough for giving me the confidence in my own skills. Highly recommend learning from her!

Sessions with Brenda Lim are always enjoyable because she takes a holistic approach to each lesson we have. She explains how our breathing affects the various parts of the body. It is also nice that she keeps updating education like the P-DTR technique that helps alleviate pain from injury!

Through Brenda's wise lead, I was able to time/space travel to where emotion had left a body message about trauma and with her guidance, I was able to transmute it into a new belief and program in my body. It is an amazing experience full of compassion, understanding, and extremely powerful. Again, I want to thank you for the powerful moment and experience we shared. I really enjoyed our meeting and got so much from it.

I am a competitive powerlifter who experienced hip pain when doing sumo deadlifts. I asked Brenda's help to assess my pain and how to resolve it. After one teleconsultation, she was able to deduce that I have pelvic imbalance which causes the pain. She gave me exercises which immediately helped and will resolve the issue in the long run. During our call, she was very attentive and critical of how I do the movements, and how I feel when doing the movements. Overall, I am very grateful for her help, and I am optimistic that I can say goodbye to my pelvic pain.

P-DTR has instant, yet lasting results. I feel myself become more balanced, centered and at ease with my body. I sleep better. The usual aches, pains, or discomforts go away. Also, I get a 'high' after every session. But I feel more grounded and my mind is clear. It is like magic. The exercises are so simple. Brenda has an energy about her that makes you relax. She is so intuitive and present. And you can feel that her care and concern are coming from a really genuine place. She is also very knowledgeable and could explain well any question you may have. Her skills and expertise as a teacher who knows multiple types of therapeutic practices show in how accurate and thorough she is in every session. A session with her is not a merely physical one. Her energy soothes you. Her attentiveness makes you feel seen, really seen. When you see her, you get this positive, good-feeling kind of hope. Thank you so much.

When I had started Pilates with Brenda, I had NEVER taken up any regular form of exercise, had chronic back pain, and horrid posture since childhood, and was pregnant with my second child. Brenda is really knowledgeable and encouraging. She made me feel comfortable enough to try Pilates. The sessions are completely tailored to me, so they really helped me through all the changes that come with pregnancy and postpartum. I feel much more centered and relaxed, lighter and stronger after my sessions that I became unexpectedly addicted. After a series of sessions, I actually had friends tell me I have good posture! Now, Pilates is helping me feel great! Thanks, Brenda!

Brenda was indeed successful in making the course fun and interesting, considering the amount of information we needed to absorb, both mentally and physically. Her years of experience as a movement teacher really manifested when she would not just make a correction, but actually break down the mechanics of an incorrect pose, as well as the correct one. Her very sharp, "teacher eyes" can pinpoint the most subtle misalignment or incorrectly-placed body part. I became very aware of what I need to dedicate more time in learning and mastering, in order to impart the same kind of corrections to my own students. I am elated to have found Fletcher Pilates in the Philippines, being administered by such an experienced and well-qualified teachers in one of the cleanest, more impeccable studios I have ever seen!

I met Brenda in 2008 at Ron Fletcher's workshop in Singapore. At that time, she was already teaching Pilates for a while but her openness to learn new things and experience different perspectives was refreshing to say the least. Brenda's gentle demeanor belies an inner strength and conviction, making her a Pilates teacher to be reckoned with. She is firm but compassionate. Focused yet adaptable. These qualities make her a very effective and powerful teacher, at the same time, extremely approachable. Whether you are just starting to practice Pilates, or if you are looking to take your practice to a higher level, you can be assured you are in good hands with Brenda.

I met Brenda in Manila during a Fletcher licensing course in 2011. Brenda is an amazing teacher and caring to her students inside and outside the studio. My impression of her style was elegance, discipline, and well-organized. I felt the techniques I've learnt during the course has helped my practice progress way further than I expected. Fletcher Pilates for me, is all about standing up tall and straight, taking and reclaiming our space combined with the joy of movement. I would definitely recommend teachers, students, and enthusiasts to take and enjoy her classes.

Before I started the Pilates with Brenda, I was looking for an exercise that could assist with reducing my back pain as well as keeping the body fit. Since I joined the class, my life has been totally changed, I was very impressed with the Pilates structure, it is an exercise for both the young and not so young. Brenda shows both professionalism and passion for Pilates which leads you to what you should/can do. It was a great chance to think about my life-style and also gave me the confidence to deal with my busy kids! Thank you, Brenda!

I want to thank Brenda for helping me to find my natural range of motion, giving me the freedom to reacquaint myself with triathlon and fitness in general. For the first time in my life I enjoy running and now, one year after entering my "comeback" sprint distance race I will be lining up for my third Olympic Distance race in Subic, Philippines. Brenda's approach to her clients is welcoming and supportive of your goals and she individually tailored each session to address my issues. She searched past my preconceived ideas of what was wrong, instead looking critically at cause and effect, and taught me to develop home strategies as wells as programs in the studio. Brenda would even develop exercises I could do while traveling for work. Through Brenda's perseverance, I have lost 15kg, gained motion, awareness and thoroughly enjoy the challenges I thought I had passed due to years of neglect and pain. Thank you.

After my first session with Brenda, I feel so much better and noticed that I am able to walk more, with endurance, without feeling exhausted.  There is no more lingering pain in my glutes, scapula, and occipital (neck region). Thank you, Brenda ❤︎!!

I came to Brenda because I was experiencing a fear of  vomit and other things like coughing.  It was stopping me from doing my best at work because I would have to rush my work so that I didn't have to stay in the same room with other people.  Our hypnotherapy sessions were relaxing.  I thought it didn't work for me.  But after two hypnotherapy sessions, I realized that my fear was no longer bothering me.  I didn't know how much I was affected by it but now I feel much happier and confident.   It's magical!  I have other things I would like to work on, but that is what I like about coming to session.  I can work on many areas of self-improvement.

My friend recommended that I see Brenda for my constant neck pain.  To find relief, I  would get regular deep tissue massage and it was helpful, but the relief wouldn't last.  I would also try to stretch but it seemed to only  aggravate my aches and make things tighter to the point where something would feel like ripping.  So I really didn't know what to expect.  But during our session, Brenda asked a lot of questions and was a kind listener.  I thought it was going to become another deep massage but she only touched me very lightly in the back of my neck.  By the end of the session, my pain was gone and it hasn't come back.  She has healing hands!

-S.V.

Thanks so much to Brenda for listening to me and for all of her input.  I truly feel like a different person altogether and I never thought I could ever feel like this happy and positive again.  I owe her so much.  God bless.

I had a serious ankle injury and the recovery was taking a long time and it was starting to get me down.   I contacted Brenda to find alternative ways to get me back to my jumping and running.  My first impression of Brenda was that she was trustworthy and competent.  The way she was taking into account my whole being made me feel like I was in good hands.  Even though she is very knowledgeable, she made things easy for me to understand, for example,  explaining the 'whys' of what we were doing.  My injury was complex, but she was very chill and confident.  She gave me so much hope and since then,  I've made the most progress with her.  Thank you, Brenda!

Ever since I was a child, I had been experiencing gut issues and would feel sick easily.  But this is not why I came to see Brenda.  I wanted to start exercising because I was feeling the effects of aging, but I had never exercised a day in my life!  Brenda's approach made me feel like I could be an exerciser.  And she knows how to go slow but keeps things challenging.  She always makes it look easy!  I feel good in her care and from the time we started working together my stomach doesn't feel bloated anymore and my legs don't feel heavy.  I have more energy and because of that, my mind and body are so grateful.
