Student Success Stories
“I used to think I was in good physical shape, working out regularly - walking, lifting weights, doing yoga. I knew my posture was poor; I thought I could simply stand up straighter. I used to think I was in tune with my body - physically, mentally, spiritually. And then, I started the Radiant Body Program. Being taught, guided, nurtured, supported, and encouraged, I learned a whole new way to be in tune with my body. I became taller, stronger, grounded, and confident. Rucsandra has helped me become more aware of the mental, emotional, and spiritual processes that are closely intertwined with physical change and well-being. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don't look forward to my time with her and the community of friends whom I cherish.”

"I’m a fairly fit person who practices and teaches Pilates. But residual restrictions from a Colles fracture in one arm, hand surgery and a neuromuscular condition drew me to Rucsandra’s Radiant Body Program. After only three months, the strength, flexibility and mobility of my hand, arm and shoulder have dramatically improved. Under Rucsandra’s guidance, I am learning to relax my throat and neck and decompress my cervical spine, relieving my chronic tinnitus and voice impairment for hours at a time."

“Before I met Rucsandra, my life was often filled with physical and emotional pain, from frozen shoulders to feeling emotionally vulnerable like a little fish swimming upstream. Today I feel in control of my body, my mind, and my emotions. She has taught me to listen to my body and has given me countless tools to deal with life's challenges. I am no longer running from one practitioner to another, hoping that they would be able to end the pain in my body. Instead, I am enrolled in the Radiant Body Program. Stress has left my vocabulary thanks to Rucsandra and her teaching. I feel so much stronger and more focused than ever before. For the first time in my life, I am making my body and mental health a priority. I am grateful to be part of a wonderful community of women who, like me, are aging wonderfully. With much gratitude.”

“Pain was affecting me on a physical and emotional level. Now I have no neck and shoulder pain anymore and an awareness of my body that I never had before.”
IVANA MUSICH
"It feels like luxurious self-care. I am doing something I know is good for me. I get body-mind-spirit support."
CLAIRE TONACK
“I wasn’t walking at all when I started the program with Rucsandra, because my feet hurt so much. She is the only person who understood my frustration with my feet, and in 6 months I went up from zero to 2km. And I can again enjoy working in the kitchen and in my garden without back pain."
MEG YOUNG
“Your program has really helped me change my relationship with my body, as well as my ability to breathe more deeply, to really nourish my body. I have a greater awareness and even the confidence that the balance in my body can be restored. I have a very deep respect for your knowledge not only about the body, but also of the mind."
