Testimonials

Mathias Koester – (Architect, Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners)

“I new nothing about the Method when I first met Gustavo and Sonia about a year ago but I quickly realized how enthusiastic and energetic they were about it, and it was a great pleasure to work with them on their school in South Kensington. It is the fabulous team that made the school happen and their passion now inspires the classes which I find relaxing and very energizing at the same time. Further to the classes it is the calm and friendly atmosphere that makes this school a beautiful oasis in the ever busy centre of London. I can highly recommend going and trying it.”

Sara Afshar - (Global Health & Development MSc Student at UCL)

“DeRose Method has dramatically improved my well being and physical strength in the last 6 months. The school itself is a wonderful little place tucked away from the chaos of the city. It’s like entering into a portal and once you’ve re-emerged you feel full of positive energy. Revitalized. I think the school has been a great success with thanks to the team who not only show a high level of professionalism but share a warmth that makes you feel a part of their community.”

Jorge Postigo - (Spanish Embassy Economic & Commercial Office)

“Do you want to know what just one hour at the school does for me?  A good stretch for my muscles, relieve for my back, peace for my mind, and a nice cup of “chat” shared in conversation with some of the most friendly, genuine people, you will find in a place like London.”

Marnie -  (Director,  Sherbert Research)

“I love practicing DeRose Method, every class brings something new and it’s amazing the support you get from the teachers whatever level you are”.

Emma – (Consultant Anaesthetist, NHS London)

“I am so lucky that I met Sonia and the rest of the team in London!  I stumbled across this method after trying out various other forms of yoga, but this suits me so much better. The classes are always enjoyable, never boring or repetitive and the atmosphere in the studio is friendly and fun. I really feel like I get personal attention each time and am actually making progress.  My back is definitely stronger and more flexible, the breathing exercises are a great technique to learn and can be applied in everyday life. Time spent in the DeRose method studio is a great escape from hectic London and  I always leave feeling relaxed yet energised.  I wish I had discovered DeRose Method years ago!”

Nancy Chien – (Lawyer)

“Attending classes at the De Rose method London is a truly positive and nurturing experience. I do a lot of physical exercise and consider myself a fit and healthy person so I was not sure what benefit I would get out of the De Rose method when I signed up. However, from the very first class, the benefit was overwhelming. The combination of feeling like you have worked your muscles and therefore improving your fitness as well as the deep sense of relaxation you achieve from the classes is not something I have ever felt from other forms of exercise or activity. I have found that the holistic approach of the De Rose method has improved my physical and mental well-being and I could not praise it enough. The school is such a wonderful place to meet like-minded people and the team at the school is simply exceptional. I look forward to attending each class and catching up with the friends I have made at the school.”

“Being architects we need creativity and fast ability of decision. It’s a very rewarding activity but also very demanding. When I started the practice of the  DeRose Method I finally found a way to develop both physical and mental well being. Enhancing the energy, improving the capacity of concentration, making it more enjoyable when facing the everyday design challenges. You learn to know your limits and capacities in a way that helps having a better dialogue with your colleagues and clients.
