What clients say

I look forward to my sessions with Jeannie because she really listens and she totally ‘gets it’. She’s such a warm, compassionate person and very knowledgeable about hypermobility. Jeannie has a way of working with her clients- looking at how you move and the body as a whole to find out what’s happening. I have Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder and since seeing Jeannie my posture has changed, my pain has reduced and the way I use my body is just different. If you are undecided about booking an appointment with Jeannie I would say definitely, do it, it’s an investment that you and your body deserve.

Anita Brown – 1:1 Client, UK

Newly diagnosed, it was so refreshing to find a professional movement teacher, with full empathy, and a most impressive wealth of experience. Within the first two sessions, my typical tension and bracing eased markedly, facilitated largely through my first encounter with Reformer Pilates. Then, seeing The Zebra Club app launched and grow over recent years, gives myself and the other members, a real sense of support, validation, and hope, that we can finally use safe and targeted movement practices, to substantially improve our symptoms and quality of life.

Henry Gregor – 1:1 Client and The Zebra Club member, UK

Jeannie’s program offered me a pain-free alternative complete with her astute assessment skills and her unwavering empathy. After sessions with Jeannie, I felt like my body had received a healing balm. I was able to practice her exercises without causing a flare-up or causing additional pain. It was like nothing I had ever experienced before. Most importantly, Jeannie’s program gave me hope. Today, because of Jeanie’s program, I have moved into trying so many activities that I would not have previously been able to do.

Shannon Finn – 1:1 Client & The Zebra Club member, Canada

Working with Jeannie has enabled me to overcome many years of chronic pain and frustration. Her mentorship has been invaluable, and I am so grateful to have movement solutions for pain and fatigue instead of relying on medications or trying to ignore it and power through. The Zebra Club community is also hugely supportive and helpful for tips and tricks for dealing with hypermobility. I'm so thankful for Jeannie and The Zebra Club and highly recommend it to anyone dealing with hypermobility and chronic pain.

Greg Murray – 1:1 Client and The Zebra Club member, United States

From age 11, I have had chronic pain and frequent subluxations. Diagnosed with HSD at 17, every type of therapy I was sent to only made things worse. Discovering Jeannie and working with her has been an absolute game changer. Jeannie's intimate understanding of the EDS body from her wealth of personal and professional experience is very unique. Her x-ray-like vision in detecting and correcting dysfunctional body mechanics is incredible. I have learned how to walk without pain, naturally not lock my hypermobile joints, and activate muscles I didn't know I had. When I first started with Jeannie, I was housebound, but now I am able to attend college full time and work part time.

Rachel Han – 1:1 Client and The Zebra Club member, United States

I have worked with Jeannie Di-Bon face to face for a number of years. Her approach offered me hope and progress where others had failed and has allowed me to recapture confidence and function in my life. Whilst I continue to be a work in progress her expertise has allowed me to find hope for the future where it has historically been lacking.

Kieran Hall – 1:1 Client, UK

Discovering Jeannie was a game changer for me. Having struggled with varied physical health problems since my childhood I went on a self-diagnosis journey after I had a problematic pregnancy and birth with my first child - which compounded all my existing health issues. Jeannie has offered patience, guidance and a wealth of knowledge which have helped me to accept, understand and work with my body. Re-educating my nervous system with Jeannie’s guidance has been a slow and gentle process. I feel now I have the tools to take my pain management and future health into my own hands as I understand how my “different” body works and why my body has reacted in certain ways in the past.

   Game-changer. Everyone with EDS, ME/CFS or chronic pain should know about this app. So validating and non-judgmental. And it really works...no matter where you are starting from. Can't recommend more highly

   Pilates for the hypermobile! This app is amazing and exactly what works for me! Update: I love the community and Jeannie's teaching but the app glitches drove me nuts on my android phone. IPhone users didn't have the same issues, lucky them! When developers solve ease of use for android I will happily subscribe again! Edit: It's been fixed and is better than ever! from 3 stars to 5 stars

   doubted the app before, glad I came back. I did a free trial last year but wasn't consistent so didn't buy it. revisited this year after trying other forms of exercise and continuing to flare. I've been doing for between 1-2 months everyday and learnt so much. how important the pelvis is, how much I guard and brace, how small movements can cause shifts and overall that I do need to strip it back and learn the basics no matter how boring that feels for my neurodiverse brain.

   I've been using this for a few weeks and I have already had so many lightbulb moments about why I was having issues with regular exercise and general movement! I actually feel much more positive about the future now looking forward to continuing

   I was recently diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. After years of being in pain and receiving many different types of treatment (chiropractor care, physical therapy, steroid injections, physiotherapy, ect.), I have finally found something that works! The Zebra Community is wonderful and supportive! The meditation, breathing, and movement classes have all been life changing! Purchasing this app has been the best decision I have made for my mind and body!

   With just one video, and of course my dedication to apply the tools, my posture has improved and my shoulders are in less pain! I appreciate the 7 day trial on the app but am so glad I kept it! There are so many videos, classes, tips and the community is great! I feel like I'm learning so many things about my body and how to help it! Amazing tool for those with hypermobility (even without an actual diagnosis as we all know that can be a struggle to get on its own).

   Thank you for creating this app I’m coming from a v low place exercise wise & was worried about hurting myself and being pushed too far. However I didn’t need to worry. Jeannie has created an atmosphere of starting where you’re at however low that is and how it’s important not to push. This is very unlike any exercise based therapies I’ve ever done. I am in control always & this helps me to feel safe. The app is really easy to use and well done. It has a helpful forum where questions can be asked to such a lovely supportive community. Thank you for creating this app and all the resources on it.

Are hypermobile people weaker?

Hypermobile people are not necessarily weaker but research shows the condition can impact muscle strength and stability. Joint instability means the muscles around the joint may need to work harder which can lead to muscle fatigue and strain. Some hypermobile people may experience muscle weakness, pain, and injury. Hypermobility varies for each individual – some hypermobile people are dancers, gymnasts, and athletes and demonstrate excellent strength and control.

What age does hypermobile EDS start?

Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a genetic condition that you are born with. However, symptoms may not become evident until later in life. Children are not usually diagnosed until after the age of 5 because most children are hypermobile. Symptoms may also worsen around times of hormonal changes like puberty, pregnancy and postpartum, and menopause.

Are there support groups for people with joint hypermobility?

There are many support groups for hypermobility. The Zebra Club platform has an amazing supportive online community. Organizations like The Ehlers-Danlos Society and Ehlers-Danlos Support UK offer support groups.

Do you have any Zebra Club merchandise I can purchase?
