Very thorough and in-depth explanation of the various concepts. I definitely get the connection to the fundamentals of WundaBar Pilates.
Rachel C--- QuizpageId 13863
Class was supper informative and a true deep dive into core work like I have never had before. You can study anatomy but anatomy in movement and how it all connects is truly fascinating. Thank you for sharing your deep knowledge and experience.

Erika J--- QuizpageId 13863
Loved it, thank you! :)

Steffani V--- QuizpageId 13863
the workshop was super helpful and really took my knowledge about the human body to the next level.
Augutus M--- QuizpageId 13863
Great course! Very thorough and informative. Anything online that's physical is hard for my learning style, so I had some trouble retaining but I still think it was wonderful.
Madi B--- QuizpageId 13863
Great workshop.
Kat G--- QuizpageId 13863
Great visuals!
Mona M--- QuizpageId 13863
I think it would be more helpful if the "model" was more verbally interactive to report how the exercises felt internally when the movements were not visible to the outside onlooker.
Shara N--- QuizpageId 13863

Arielle O--- QuizpageId 13863
Clear course that goes deeper into how important core muscles work
Stefanie C--- QuizpageId 13863
The course moved at a great speed and was easy to follow. I probably will watch a few times to get names down a little more.
Debbie L--- QuizpageId 13863
Wonderfully demonstrated.
Marcy S--- QuizpageId 13863
Course was very good. Deepened my knowledge.
Lieve V--- QuizpageId 13863
This workshop provides a lot of essential information and essential exercises to bring a client closer to his or her centre (both body and mind) before starting with any kind of pilates exercise.
Lauren N--- QuizpageId 13863
This is a very intense and informative workshop. Marie Jose Blom is pleasant and the videos are helpful in showing what she is explaining.
Anne W--- QuizpageId 13863
A lot of information. Would be helpful to have some guidance on how to give cues for a larger class size vs. one-on-one where touch can be incorporated at all times of need.
Lisa V--- QuizpageId 13863
The workshop series was very comprehensive. I think for complete beginners, it would serve the students better if there was an anatomical intro video, something to get an overview of all the anatomical terms, prior to jumping into the movements and how they connect. Additionally, YouTube has a feature where you can slow down or speed up the video playback. I think this could be beneficial as well considering Marie tends to speak more slowly.
Taylor L--- QuizpageId 13863
This workshop was well done. I enjoyed being able to learn about the body and how we use our muscles and joints it in pilates.
Stephanie R--- QuizpageId 13863
Very informative. I would have liked more graphics of the muscles working in the skeleton to get a better understanding of where they are in the body and how they move just because it is a little hard to see it on the demonstrator's body.
Alison C--- QuizpageId 13863
I found this information to be insightful and interesting.
Gabi H--- QuizpageId 13863
I very much enjoyed the workshop! I appreciated a live video instruction rather than just reading it. The diagrams were also very helpful!
Victoria C--- QuizpageId 13863
I thought the live demonstrations in each video aided the knowledge I already had about the body. I liked the speed of the video so I could follow along like a step by step tutorial.
Emma G--- QuizpageId 13863
I really appreciated how this course was broken up. Not coming from a background that included anatomical study, it made a lot of information feel very manageable. I absolutely loved the digitized diagrams. They greatly helped where some of the terminology went a little over my head.
Lauren M--- QuizpageId 13863
It was very well explained, I enjoyed the diagrams on the PDF outline. I wish there were more of those per session
Cristin W--- QuizpageId 13863
This was good to watch these videos although I found them quite complicated I tried to follow along and rewind them as best I could. I mostly got lost in all of the bone and muscular terminology but took a couple of things I hopefully can use in teaching.
Sara C--- QuizpageId 13863
I would really like a similar workshop about the upper core by Marie José. I love this great master. Please tell her to come back to fusion again!
Victoria M--- QuizpageId 13863
The sessions were extremely thorough and helpful. It really made a difference to be able to pause, rewind, or start over an entire session. I also found the bubbles of side notes to be really helpful as well. I'm sure with notes I wrote down, along with the notes provided, I'll be ready to teach in no time! Thank You :)
Thea B--- QuizpageId 13863
Great training! Thanks so much!
Lynda J--- QuizpageId 13863
The anatomical descriptions of the purposes of the muscles were interesting. It was useful to learn how the systems work together to create a more functional body.
