Community Feedback
"My whole life I prided myself on being strong. After my first pregnancy I felt like I didn't recognize my body and was so overwhelmed by my lack of core strength that I stopped exercising - it was only exacerbated after my second child was born. I am so happy I found WSC, in combination with physical therapy, I feel strong again and it has been so good for my mental health, too. Rachel is attentive and so knowledgeable, she assesses and modifies the program for individuals' physical needs. I want to be active with my kids throughout their childhoods and I have noticed such a difference since I started 8 months ago. The community is great too. I can't recommend Rachel and WSC enough!"
