Testimonials

I have grown with Gail. I have lengthened tight muscles, supported growing tummies, toned and aligned, connected and corrected.
Each transition is a journey, never quite the same.
Gail translates her deep knowledge of the human body and mind into a wealth of personalized solutions that she delivers with utter professionality and a touch of humor, so that repetition becomes an opportunity to improve instead of a tedious sequence of exercises.
And she empathizes, so within minutes she’s gone straight to the core of the issue. If there are no problems, she’ll work you hard, though soflty. She’ll get you to release the jaw while you pump the abs….
There’s no getting bored while exercising with Gail. It just gets better and better. Isn’t that what aging is all about?

I am passionate about Bikram Yoga. However a couple years ago, my physiatrist warned me that my 60+-year-old back might act up during class.
In a panic, I called Gail at Kinetics and in only two one-hour sessions, Gail trained me to do the postures with precision & awareness and I’ve haven’t had a problem since. Thank you, Gail!!

Gail is a consummate professional who genuinely cares about her clients. In her off time, she researches to find them resources that will help them with whatever is troubling them, and refers them to people who she trusts to take care of them. I have received several referrals from Gail over the years, and in each case what I had to offer was exactly what the client needed. She goes above and beyond, both in client care and in professional relationships, networking, encouraging and being very supportive.
I count myself honored to be on Gail’s list of referrals, because I know she is very discriminating about who she allows to work with her clients.

I first met Gail when I was starting out in my career as a Massage Therapist.  She was teaching a class in Ergonomics and some bodywork techniques for the therapists at the Spa where I was working. I was impressed by her deep knowledge of anatomy and the functioning of the human body along with her great talent and enthusiasm for conveying that knowledge. I was a novice and inspired by her teaching. I never forgot the many techniques that she taught. Many years later our paths crossed again when we shared a client. We reconnected as colleagues and have since referred clients to each other. Gail has continued to teach me and helped me enormously through some painful hip issues of my own, as well as helping my clients.  Her gifts of compassion and desire to help others, along with her deep listening skills and knowledge together help to achieve results and guide on through a gentle healing process.

Gail Pudaloff is a fitness visionary and a pioneer in the modern fitness movement. Like her predecessors, FM Alexander, Joe Pilates and Moshe Feldenkrais, she has brought a level of professionalism and excellence to a profession that has too long been dominated by a never-ending revolving collection of ”six-pack air-head, pseudo-yogi eye candy-of-the-month” trainers and others in the business who have little to offer in terms of real knowledge concerning the body and fitness. She has a deep understanding of anatomy and physiology and has created a unique and highly respected model for effective therapeutic movement and exercise – KINETICS.
-Lewis Harrison, best-selling author and Director of The Harrison Center for Personal Development.

Gail’s genious is in knowing which small adjustments will yield enormous changes. My lower back and hamstrings used to hobble me but now I know the secret is a simple 5-minute exercise, performed daily. Thank you, Gail!

I have known Gail for upwards of fifteen years. What remains obvious is the depth of caring that she feels for each and every one of her clients. Gail goes the extra 10 miles to ensure they have quality exercise routines specific to their personal needs and wants.
-Laura Lee Drucker

This a note about Gail Pudaloff. I have worked with this lady for a number of years and have only good things to say about her. She is unbelievably knowledgeable about the body and how it functions.  Gail has developed a way of exercising that leaves you with diminished pain and a sense of well-being.  She is amazingly creative in accommodating to the unique demands of the moment.  I have seen her devise routines for me that worked when I was in great pain, convinced that I could not exercise at all.  She is gentle, but also firm in keeping me in motion.  She has enabled me to continue working, exercising, walking and going places while enjoying my life.  I am deeply grateful for her involvement in my life, and hopefully our work together will be continued for many more years.  She is masterful!!

After not exercising for over 10 years, I consulted with Gail and started doing therapeutic personal training sessions so that I could just ‘get moving again!’
I can only say that now I have a ton of energy and I feel great, not only physically but emotionally.  I feel completely open and euphoric….Thank you, Gail!
