Sandy R. - "Pat Massey Welter is one of the finest teachers I have ever worked with. Her expertise as a Pilates trainer is only surpassed by the sensitivity and empathy she had for my particular physical challenges through out the past nine months of my training program. My results have been dramatic and life changing." (Continued testimonial below*)

Annemarie - ""I have been training with Pat for the past year. And, not only do I think she is an incredible trainer, she is a wonderful person. She has shown me such commitment, understanding and concern throughout our relationship. Pat is so easy to be with and take direction from. Her life is an inspiration, and because of that she is a wonderful motivator. Having never been a true fan of exercise, I actually enjoy the time I spend with Pat. We have done various forms of training from Pilates to overall fitness. She is equally knowledgeable and exceptional at both. I don't think you could find a better trainer out there. I feel fortunate to have found her and make exercise a regular part of my life now."

Joan - "What I have lost is inches. I have totally reshaped my body!"

Michele - "I never exercised before in my life until I worked out at Suncoast Pilates with Pat. She has given me a body of which I am proud. No one can believe how good I look for my age. I do a combination of weight training and Pilates with Pat twice a week. Pat gave me the POWER!" Michele (below) is 64 as of 8/18/08.

Jonica - "What a wonderful trainer and all around great person Pat Massey Welter is. I started training with Pat in an attempt to get back into shape after my Pacemaker implant at the age of 32. I’ve always been an athletic, fit, and motivated individual, but I needed some serious help to get back on course without getting too discouraged with my new situation. Pat’s unbelievable spirit & encouragement got me right back on track in no time. She is very innovative in her workouts and discovers new ways to challenge her clients while accounting for physical limitations and never letting an excuse get in the way of pushing us to our full potential. Her humor and great personality have also made her a wonderful friend and physical fitness mentor. Pat is supportive of her clients in every single aspect of their life, which only begins with the very intense workout sessions."

Barbara - "I have known Patricia Massey Welter for 11 years now, and can't say enough great things about her. Pat has helped me to stick with an exercise program, and not give up on losing weight, even through some pretty tough times.
As an attorney, my schedule didn't leave much time for healthy eating or exercise, and I have been overweight for many years. While image isn't everything, being overweight was taking its toll on my health, and my work efforts.
With her Pilates instruction and personal support, Pat helped me shed 80 pounds and I know that I will reach my weight loss goal. Pat cares so deeply about her clients, and tailors her workout to what the client can physically do, slowly leading them to the realization that they are capable of much more than originally thought. I, for one, never thought I'd be capable of doing some of the exercises on the Pilates Reformer that I now do without even thinking about it. The resulting feeling of empowerment has transferred over to all aspects of my life - I feel better, have more energy and stamina, and my golf swing has improved significantly!
Through it all, Pat never gave up on me, and that is the difference between Pat and so many other trainers. Pat honestly cares about my progress, and in helping me achieve my goal of being fit and in shape.
All I can say is that Pat is amazing, and anyone who is fortunate enough to work with her will reap the benefits for their lifetime."

Judy - "I have been to gyms off and on in the different states I have lived. I have never really followed through long term, having gotten bored after four to six weeks, until I had a major back injury. My personal training on the Pilates Reformer machine changed my life. Pilates is what saved me from back surgery. It is the only therapy/ exercise that has worked for me and is easy to do and non-impact, making it extremely easy to stay in a routine."
