Testimonials

I have been a part of Mariana’s “Strong to the Core” private group now since it started. I have enjoyed the Monday mini workout sessions each week. It has helped enormously in getting me through this lockdown period, especially for those of us in Melbourne. Mariana is doing a wonderful job at no cost to us, she has a positive and encouraging approach to all her classes and is a tremendous contribution to the community. Many thanks from a 77yrs old Ballet teacher.

Mariana, I’ve never met you in person but through your private group, I can see a very caring and intelligent person. You are our saviour through the lockdown, you made us move it before we lose it. Very well trusted after being such a qualified Nutrition and Health Coach and Pilates instructor. So much appreciated! 🙏💖🙏

I just finished a health coaching session with Mariana and didn't realise how quickly the one hour flew past. Mariana established a rapport with me and I found her very accessible and friendly. She also has an in-depth and thorough knowledge on health and fitness. I really appreciate the inputs and suggestions she gave me to lead a healthier lifestyle. Thanks again, Mariana and all the best.

My husband and I have been attending the Strong to the Core studio for 8 months now. We have found the program to be fun and challenging. Mariana tailors the exercises to suit our needs, taking into consideration any injuries that we may have, and working around those to increase the strength and health of the body. No class is ever the same as she is always adding new exercises to our program. We have enjoyed the program and highly recommend anyone who is thinking about getting fit and toned to give it a go

Mariana Arceri has been a revelation to me. After my hernia operation years ago, I was left with very little core strength, which has caused issues such as regular and painful back spasms. Within weeks of Mariana's first visit, and my own dedication to following the exercises and techniques which Mariana instructed, I have experienced amazing results. My core now feels strong and secure and my flexibility has vastly improved, giving me the confidence to be able to achieve my goal of competing in half ironman Triathlons

My Pilates sessions with Mariana have allowed me to develop greater awareness and control of my core, which is essential in maintaining optimal health and reducing my risk of injury. Mariana's warmth and individualised approach allows for a comfortable and productive Pilates experience that I would gladly recommend to anyone
