Beverley has created a whole system of exercises that have the capacity to strengthen the muscles of the body without any harm.

Beverley’s technique not only will ‘workout’ the muscles but will contribute to mental fitness by providing a channel for the release of anxiety. These exercises should become part of a daily routine contributing to overall well-being.

I have been working with Beverley as my Fitness Trainer for 30 Years! Most decidedly my physical needs have evolved and changed through those many years. One of Beverley’s strengths is her total understanding of the body. When I met her I was a premenopausal woman of small build who was searching for someone who would be equipped to help and strengthen me through the many physical stages my life would be taking. She has more than lived up to this! I have been able to continue working out with a stress fracture, sciatica, a torn meniscus, and 2 knees with osteoarthritis, as well as the usual aches and pains. She also has a wealth of timely health information which she has shared with me and has, I am sure, added to my quality of life. As a wonderful bonus, I consider her to be a trusted friend and mentor and sincerely hope our relationship will continue for many years to come.

I have been had the pleasure of knowing Beverley for over 20 years. When we first met she assessed my Physical fitness and it wasn’t encouraging! I had back issues that, at times, would immobilize me. I didn’t really understand how to make my body stronger through physical exercises. Bev worked with me and taught me how to use my body rather than machines in the gym, to strengthen my core, build muscles and ultimately become pain free.She gave me freedom and peace of mind. Her one word that stayed with me these 20 years…MOVE. I did and I still do! Thank you, Bev.

For decades I have suffered from lower back pain and sciatica which at the time has been debilitated me. Seven years ago Beverley D. Burdeyney was introduced to me. She has been my exercise coach ever since. I have benefitted immensely from her expertise, knowledge of the body and her innovative exercise program using balloons. Beverley assess me at each session and works with me according to my body’s needs at the time. She has given me an exercise and balloon routine which I follow daily and as a result, I am stronger, more flexible and more confident. My flare-ups are fewer. Above all, I know that she cares and will always be there for me.

I have been working with Beverley Burdeyney since 1986. At the time that we started, I had undergone major abdominal surgery and wanted to get my body back to its former state. In addition, I traveled a lot for business and so needed a program tailored to my pace and my schedule, which she accommodated, as one of the first trainers to come into homes. To say that I have stuck with Bev for 33 years is, by itself, a telling statement that speaks volumes. In short, she keeps my body going and available for my life. She has done so through that first recuperation, then in the difficult aftermath of a white-knuckle pregnancy, helping my body not just recoup but gain and maintain the necessary energy to live the more than full life of a “geriatric” mother. In the many years since (the baby is on the verge of 29) she has shepherded me, with a steady hand, through the relentless process of aging with its various and sometimes random hiccups. She has been a mentor and a role model. Beverley is dedicated, truly and remarkably intuitive about her work, smart, caring and nurturing. She has trained herself on her own compromised and needy body, and she has done so well that nobody would believe it without her explanation of its history – and the older she gets, the more extraordinary it is! As life has attacked her body, she continues to develop new techniques to deal with it and, by extension, the bodies of her clients - such as those simple but marvelous balloons. How lucky for anyone she works with that she has got there before us and is there to help us try to do as well! Thank you, Beverley!

I have known and worked with Beverley D. Burdeyney for about eighteen years, and consider her to be a genius at recognizing injuries and designing programs to deal with them and restore health and well being to her clients. Many times over the years Beverley has answered a phone call regarding a new problem and has made suggestions, amending an existing program, adding remedial exercises and being accessible as soon as possible for an appointment. More recently, Beverley has created a totally new program, initially for herself, recovering from a serious accident, then adapting it for her clients. The program employs ordinary balloons which are utilized as resistance when doing a core strengthening exercise program. If Beverley says it works, of course, I tried it, and it does work! I don’t know how or why, but I feel amazing. Another advantage: I can do this program anywhere, not in a gym, not with supervision, not needing workout machines or other people. If I am hurting from an activity, sitting too long while traveling or even injuring myself, I can do the program and most often fix the problem, if not Beverley will help long-distance or in person. I am a devoted and long -term disciple of Beverley Burdeyney. Her balloon program has surprised me and has been a successful and remarkable simple program to embrace. It can be done anywhere in a reasonable time frame, with excellent results. I am a seventy-three-year-old woman with multiple neck and back and neck issues. I have been told many times that I should have, will have, must have back surgery but so far Beverley has kept me from that option. I believe that her program, regularly and dutifully performed is a much better alternative for me. I cannot thank Beverley enough for all she has done for me. She is brilliant and I would highly recommend both her advice and her Balloon Program for any future clients.

We have been clients of Beverley D. Burdeyney for more than 20 years. She has developed an individual fitness program for each of us. I, Howard, have suffered intense back pain and spasms prior to Beverley’s unique program . The program employing basic stretches and the use of weights provides the ability to live pain free. I, Carole, have suffered from breathing problems. Beverley’s fitness program allowed me to bring these problems under control. Beverley has been a source of wisdom and understanding in the use and manner in which she has incorporated her program allowing us to lead a full and active life.
