Cardiac Pulmonary Training

Celia

Thank you for all the time and care you gave me and my body these last six months. I do feel an improvement in my health and general strength. When we had to transition to zoom sessions I got very discouraged since I like the in person experience. However you slowly helped me adapt to this new way of exercising. You provided the regular verbal encouragement and making sure that all the normal check ins still happened. I guess in...

I have never been much of a fan of structured exercise so it is something of a surprise to me that I enjoy the breathe easy classes led by Siobhan. I find Siobhan to be always cheerful, extremely encouraging and very patient. She makes a great effort to explain each of the exercises, is always happy to find an alternative if there is a particular exercise that you can't do and generally encourages you throughout the class. She takes time...

My weekly exercise session with Siobhan Rogers has done wonders for my health. Though COPD is irreversible, my peak flow is much better than it was a year ago and I get less breathless. I also have more stamina and better balance. I get miffed with Siobhan when she pushes me to do more, but I must admit that I am fitter, suppler, and I even have hopes of getting slimmer....

I have been attending Siobhan Rogers' weekly Cardiac Pulmonary Exercise class since November 2016. Siobhan is a wonderful teacher. She makes sure that we perform the exercises correctly and gives help where needed. She has a pleasant manner and I think is liked by everyone. She is hoping to restart the class in October 2017. I look forward to that. Meanwhile I wish her all the very best for the future....

I decided to keep exercising during my pregnancy and to start as early as possible. I found Siobhan via her website and double checked her diploma on the REP website. It was important for me to trust the trainer and be confident she would know exactly what to do, and not to do with the specificity my condition. I exercised with her for 7.5 months and stopped a few weeks only before my due date. I have been very happy...

When I was referred to pulmonary rehabilitation I was in denial that exercise would help my lung condition. I am pleased to say that after my first exercise session with Siobhan I felt the benefit, I had more energy after the class. Over the last year I have seen improvements in my health, I have more energy to do daily tasks, I go out more where as before I used to avoid going out due to my lung condition. Since...

When I had completed Pulmonary Rehabilitation Classes it was suggested that should I wish to continue with these exercises I should contact Siobhan Rogers at the Royal Free Charity Rehabilitation Club right next door to the hospital. This I did and the weekly attendance at her classes has become essential. To paraphrase Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar : “ She is constant as the Northern star “ Always on time, ebulliant, and on the very few occasions when I have been the...

Dear Siobhan, I wanted to drop you a note following my recent fitness training under your guidance. Before I started to exercise I struggled to walk, had to maintain a slow pace and rest after a few minutes. I followed your exercise system (power walk, dumbells, warm up etc) for one year and have noticed a dramatic improvement in my health. I can now walk at a reasonable pace for upto 15 minutes without rest. I can walk to the...

I have been exercising with Siobhan Rogers for the past 4 years and I can say this has been the way for me to keep fit and consequently keep away from additional heart medication. The results are confirmed by the annual medical tests. I can recommend the routine to others....

Siobhan's pulmonary classes are very focussed and results-oriented yet totally pleasurable. She tailors the exercises to the precise needs of each participant, is constantly vigilant as to what each individual is doing throughout the class and issues frequent reminders as to goals, making sure the exercise is right and that not a second is wasted. She monitors progress all the time and provides the best possible motivation to get the most out of the class....
