I have recently had an breast implant explantation surgery and took this workshop to help myself feel confident in my recovery journey. the information was really well organized, presented, and it is so important to keep the tissues, fascia and cells nourished with gentle, focused movement pre operation and diagnosis. looking forward to practicing and taking the other workshops "

" In one word, this workshop was lovely... I have been teaching Pilates for 20 years and was diagnosed with breast cancer one year ago. I had a bilateral mastectomy with no reconstruction and thankfully, no chemo or radiation.
