...I am giving credit to the instruction I received at the Good Space for the strength I have maintained in my leg after lateral release surgery that did not turn out as expected. I have been out of commision since early last year, but have remained very strong where it appears the norm is to have muscles that atrophy. Since I had already learned to make the mind/body connection (thanks to picky, picky, picky instructors over there!), I have needed minimal correction from the physical therapist and do most of my work by myself at home. I have to isolate muscles I've never heard of to help keep my kneecap where it's supposed to be. I've been released to return to pilates, (now my core needs work) and am very excited about the myfascial stretching. I had researched it on the internet, but had no idea it was available over there. I find it interesting that many of the PT exercises are stretches I learned through pilates. It would be great if the insurance company would cover pilates the same as they do for PT. Unfortunately, Cigna did not ask for my opinion when the policy was written. I'm looking forward to getting back to exercise under the watchful eyes of wonderful instructors at the Good Space.

Omigosh – what a difference in how I feel since Jan 21 – I love the movement, I love the people, I love the space. As far as I’m concerned the combination is unequaled in this part of town (maybe anywhere in Houston). Thanks for improving my outlook on everything!

-Carol Phillips, Good Space Client

Good Space ladies – Your smiles, laughter and positive attitude just make my day. Thanks for all you do.

-Marcy, Good Space Client

Pilates has changed my life in such a positive way I could fill this book! Before beginning classes I was having problem with my lower back, feet and hands. After several surgeries my doctors suggested physical therapy, but nothing has transformed my life as much as this class! Thank you Kimberly!

-Sheila Blocker, Good Space Client

I come to the Good Space from Spring, which is at least an hour drive one way… but it’s completely worth it! I love the classes and I love how my body feels afterwards. My thanks to Melody and all the instructors!

-Kim Hess, Good Space Client

I like the studio space design - the lighting, floors, and walls give one a feeling of renewal. It's a refreshing place to workout.

-Curtis McKallip Jr, Good Space Client

After going through treatment – chemo and radiation – I was desperate to regain my strength and sense of well-being. The opening of The Good Space was perfect timing for my needs! I took advantage of the Pilates & Yoga classes while using one of the private trainers weekly. This regime enabled me to walk 40 miles for the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Los Angeles this September (1 year after completing treatment). I am now in better shape than ever!!!

-Marcia Pevey, Attorney

This is the first place I have tried where a workout is not a chore.

Love the Pilates – LOVE the people!

-Jamie Jackson, Good Space Client

It really does work! The first type of exercise I’ve actually enjoyed in 40 years… and… no headaches anymore… less stress… and my husband said “What happened to your cellulite ?!?”

-Veronica Harvey, Good Space Client

I have found a place to renew my mind, body, and spirit in a one hour class! (Ballet Sculpt is my favorite!) Now that’s time efficient!

-J Caroline Serrett, M.S. CCC/SLP

I started with the introductory free classes. I was very impressed with the teachers and the different classes offered, that although unemployed I decided it was worth coming to as many classes as I could. In 1 month I have lost 1 dress size without losing weight and I am standing straighter after only my first four introductory Pilates classes. And I haven’t changed my eating habits… I enjoy the love & care.

-Vesta Yoder, Good Space Client

Great place. Great place to exercise. Great people.

Melody Morton is one of the most wonderful, fabulous, dynamic women that I know. Her staff is excellent – helpful and fun. What she has created in Houston is so beautiful to me. “The Good Space” for quality education and top instructors. I love Melody & “The Good Space,” and I can’t wait to come back! Muhalo Nui Loa.

Hastily getting ready for our intro class to Pilates. My mother had quickly told me “TO HURRY!” “I DON’T WANT TO BE LATE” she said. I was wondering what was this Pilates stuff all about? After meeting the great people at the Good Space, I quickly learned what benefits could be had. My mental and physical condition improved dramatically. Pilates emphasizes proper breathing, I found lung space I never knew I had. Also daily stress can be relieved through daily Pilates exercising. I have become a firm believer in the Pilates program. All the best and may you all experience longas vitas.

-Jeff Genitempo, Good Space Client

The Good Space was recommended to me by my daughter, who already was an enthusiastic student of Pilates. She hoped that as a senior “senior citizen” with leukemia, I would enjoy the benefits from taking yoga lessons. I started with private yoga, with a gradual adding of a few basic Pilates exercises in each session, and ended up gravitating to Pilates altogether. I have gained an enormous increase in strength, stamina, and energy, plus an added flexibility to my body. It has been a very positive experience for me and I always look forward to my twice a week sessions. My congratulations to the Good Space! The instructors, and the atmosphere, are a positive influence for a great work-out.

-Polly Hart, Good Space Client

Julie is the best teacher I have ever had. She always has a happy, energetic outlook on life, and she spreads her joy to anyone she talks to. She is an amazing Pilates teacher. She will always go the extra mile to help her students understand exactly what they are doing and why it is beneficial. She explains everything, and even demonstrates the exercises if necessary. She is always patient and understanding. She can easily figure out a person’s body type and immediately know which exercises would be beneficial for his/her body. She also knows how to pace her students individually, as some move along more quickly than others. No matter who you are, Julie will make a difference, not only in doing Pilates, but in your life. She will bring a smile to your face every time you see her. No matter what my day was like, I always wanted to give 100% effort when I was working with Julie because she inspired me so much.

-Christy Stowell, Professional Ice skater

I have never exercised so much in my entire life, but I am enjoying almost every breathless moment. I have become totally addicted to The Good Space and the yoga and Pilates classes. Running was totally off my radar screen, but I am now showing up at Memorial Park on Saturday mornings. My goal is to participate in the Houston marathon next year. I am Spinning up a storm, too. My stamina has increased dramatically, as has my appetite! My fellow Challengers are a delightful group and camaraderie abounds.
