So informative!
Great workshop. Loved the breakdown and full explanation of chosen exercises. I will revisit often...
Nice breakdown of the movements present in Semi-circle and a good series of preparation movements to prepare students to safely and successfully enjoy Semi-Circles.
Excellent course and a great teacher. I will use this info in my practice.
Like the TURE concept . Plus the Deconstruction of human movement. Many things will be helpful in teaching and observing . Thank you!
I am a Pilates student and took this course to be educated in more for my own practice. At this time, I take my classes with a trainer, and several things I learned in this workshop can help me to understand her cues better!
Great workshop- Well organized and clearly articulated.
Great workshop; nice to see this approach...
Wonderful workshop! I love the connection of the exercises to the anatomy, and the application of the anatomy to the moving and thinking through the movements. I'm inspired to deconstruct and then reconstruct my approach to semi -circle! Thank you Trina! Your approach to teaching is inspiring to me!
Great Workshop with good insights and easily understood.Thank you :-)
Great workshop!
