Donna & Matthew Nolan - "The key was our own connection ...."

In the lead up to our wedding we knew that we wanted to do a dance as part of our celebration but we didn't want anything that was choreographed.  We were feeling a little awkward about how we were going to dance and felt that Beverly would the perfect person to support us in ....

Sara Williams - "Even calling it an 'exercise class' reduces the enormity of what Bev offered me ..."

In over 30 years of active participation in health and fitness, both in a personal and professional practitioner capacity, I can unequivocally say that I have never experienced the depth of insight into my body in an exercise class than I have done in the hands of Beverly Carter.

Helen Simkins: "I was never a fan of exercise before I met Bev"

​I must admit I was never a fan of what I considered  ‘exercise’ – structured activities about fitness, or my lack of it J, involving things like pushing my body around and counting crunches. Just the idea of sit ups sent my mind wandering toward the fridge, my desk, the couch or, well, pretty much anywhere except toward the mat or the gym…
 
What I do absolutely treasure is the relationship with my body that Beverly Carter, of Its Time To Shine has inspired, along with a whole new attitude to what exercising is truly about.
 
Firstly this approach is about movement, true movement, rather than ‘exercise’, first big tick from me!

Josephine Bell: "My sessions with Bev have been life-changing"

Having a session with Bev Carter is a profound experience. Bev knows the body, yours and mine inside out and she has a unique knack of being able to help you connect to your inner stillness while you are moving.

​At the same time some of the old patterns of doing in the body are revealed and unwound and this feels so gorgeous in the body.

​I have found my sessions with Bev have been life-changing in the sense that they have deepened my sense of connection with my inner rhythm whilst I am in movement and given me a marker I can always return to no matter how busy my day.

Phil Sargent - "Having sessions with Beverly Carter has opened me up to a whole new world of movement"

​Exercise has always been ingrained into my life, but typically it was always associate to an image.  Endlessly working to a better body image, or training for some sort of competition or particular sport, but I was always left feeling like I was finishing short…it was never enough “no pain, no gain” and all that.
 
Having started regular sessions with Beverley Carter I was opened up to a whole new world of movement and in that a deeper understanding of the way my body was designed to be.  Some of the exercises, movements and stretches we do together have been so encompassing of my whole body that I have often actually felt more connected to my body and beyond than any combination of things I had done before such as yoga and meditation, or circuits for example.

Tanya Curtis - "This is vastly different to any exercise I have done before"

I started to have exercise sessions with Bev Carter at the end of 2015. In the past I had engaged in many different forms of exercising from team sports, gym, personal training, yoga, pilates, swimming, running etc. I've always liked being active however often found that due to injury, business or some other reason I have never maintained a consistency.  I also found there was one element that never felt right for me … they all involved pushing my body. I went along with this approach,  often resulting in injury or my body experiencing flu like symptoms after exercise. Eventually I  stopped everything for about five years and simply chose walking as my only form of exercise.

At the end of 2015 i started classes with Bev Carter. I cannot find the right words to explain how vastly different this experience has been in comparison to anything else i have engaged in.

Katie Walls – "​My relationship with exercise has been completely transformed"

For me exercise used always to be a chore, something I felt like I ‘should’ do to be healthy and look after myself. There was no joy or connection in the way I used to approach exercise. Previously to exercising with Bev, whenever I attended exercise classed they were delivered from a drive and a push to elevate the heart rate but with no consideration to how you may be feeling that particular day. I though that to get results one had to push their body  and exercise hard, and to me this did not feel pleasant.

​Rachael Rogerson – "Before True Movement with Bev Carter I felt like I had two left feet . . . now I feel joy in my movement and more confident in general."

I first experienced True Movement with Curtis and Natalie Benhayon in the UK in sessions with lots of other people. Initially I didn't enjoy it as everyone else appeared to know the movements really well and I seemed to have two left feet in comparison!

​Susan Scully - "nothing comes close to what Beverly and True Movement have offered and supported me with"

​I have experienced many forms of exercise and trainers however nothing comes close to what Beverly and True Movement have offered and supported me with being an all-over, life changing, body make-over experience. 
 
Beverly is a ‘miracle’ worker ~  amazing, fun, incredibly supportive, deeply caring and knows the body inside out – she knows her stuff yet keeps it real and playful customizing the movements, classes or session for whatever is needed for you to ‘SHINE’.

Sylvia Brinkman - Do you want to shine as you did as a small kid?

​Do you want to work on a lovely gentle way to deepen the connection with your body?  Do you want to shine as you did as a small kid?
Then Beverly Carter organizes online classes to attend. For example a program for 3 times then you can practise that on your own. 
It is from a different quality then you probably know of. What she brings is pretty unique. 
You get touched by the beauty you will feel being in your body ( out of the head). And boy oh boy how much the body enjoys that.
It relaxes deeply and old imprints are leaning the body. I am touched how gorgeous it feels to be gentle towards myself. How honoring
that is to me. Instead of the hardness we can move in to do all tasks needed in the day. Enjoy.    GERMANY

​Stephen Dooley -  "balancing and stretching and simple things, yet unbeknownst  to it there was great magic going on behind the scenes.

I was able to feel into myself to a much greater depth than before, with more insight and greater awareness. My session was so interactive, joyful and fun.
Beverly, you were so gentle, strong and lovely - is this what shine means?
