What People Say about Working with Ernie Adams

Studying "User Friendly Pilates" with Ernie Adams was a wonderful experience. He brought to the class an energy and ease that made the exercises both possible, strengthening and fun. I think his humor laced itself into the instructions did a lot to encourage the class and stimulate the energy. —Louise Todd Cope

Ernie Adams’ clinical and people skills are of the highest order. Mr. Adams has formally-acquired knowledge and certifications, and many years of experience treating, educating, and assisting a wide range of client populations. I am a Bay Area clinical psychologist, with specialties in rehabilitative neuropsychology, pain management, and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, Mr. Adams has been an invaluable referral source. He is very aware, in his practice, of the body-mind connection, and knows both the strengths and limits of his work, as any top clinician does. He has his clients’ best interests at heart, and the feedback I get from our mutual clients is excellent, both in terms of gains made, and the interactive experience. —Carrie Thaler, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist

Ernie Adams was instrumental in my recovery from a shoulder injury. He used a combination of hands-on work and assigning at-home exercises. The exercises were simple and painless--they didn't feel like "work" at all. I didn't even think they would have any effect! But within a few weeks I was feeling less pain and more mobility. Within a couple of months, I was totally pain-free and able to carry on with all my normal activities. But the best thing was, to my complete surprise, that through working with Ernie I recovered a feeling of ease and joy in movement that I didn't even realize I had lost long before the injury occurred. Thank you, Ernie! —Susan Pomeroy, Ph.D.

We were late to a performance at the Scottish Rite Center in Oakland. The last seats were up in the nosebleed section, and the fastest way to them was climbing up and over a few rows of seats. I began climbing and heard my left knee crack!

I couldn't move my left leg without pain, but I was determined to hear the concert. Afterwards two ushers carried me to a wheelchair and rolled me to the door. We went to the ER, and they sent me home on crutches. A visit to the orthopedist the next day resulted in a diagnosis of osteoarthritis.

I was on the crutches for a couple months. I even went up and down stairs on my butt! When the doctor said I could go off the crutches, I found I couldn't walk any more.

You told me that my brain and body had "forgotten" how to work together to enable me to walk, and you taught me enough body awareness in our first session that I could begin to imagine being mobile again. By the end of three sessions with you I could walk. I felt such joy in finally being able to get around again, even better than before. Thank you, Ernie! —Nancy Humphreys
