Miriam R
very good
Christopher B
Love the ascot
Erin H
Great training
Erin B
Enjoyed all the different variations of exercises working specific muscles. I would think that the ballet dancers would also need some specific internal rotation leg work exercises since they are always working in external rotation. Usually the dancer's external rotators are tight and the internal rotators are weak.
Elizabeth W

Troy McCarty was excellent! Loved his flow, cues, gentle but challenging style. The use of foundational exercises with really cool twists was exactly what I need for my private clients!

Thank you for sharing wonderful exercises.

Learned some new moves and cues. Thank you.
Angela W
I really enjoyed this workshop, thank you! I’ve taken Troy’s workshops before and I always learn a new exercise and new ways to cue exercises that make sense to me and my clients. I work with a lot of golfers and I think this workshop will be helpful because athletes of all sports have a lot in common when it comes to stability, mobility, and single sided repetitive movements. Thanks again, Angela
Courtney H

Thank you for the review Troy. Loved seeing Jen move, thank you Jen
Charles K
Effective exercises without being overly complicated. Thanks!
Anna C
I really enjoyed this workshop! Troy gives excellent and very clear instructions. He cues proper positioning, posture and breathing beautifully. The camera angles were very clear, allowing the viewer to completely see each exercise. He did not speak too quickly or rush through the exercises which I appreciated. Thank you!!
Keegan H
Enjoyable! I liked these variations, and I found it especially helpful when Troy would related the exercise to the specific skill needed for the dancer/athlete. I would have liked some variation to help train quickness -- so crucial in most sports/dance, and something that is often difficult to achieve through Pilates...
Mary P
I found this workshop helpful as I sometime train athletes and dancers in my area. I would like to see maybe a longer workshop like this one :)
Shannon S
Class was great and I learned a few new variations I've never performed or taught before. Thank you!
Jessica P
As a dancer, I loved session 2 of this workshop but session 1 was SO valuable since so many of my clients that come in are athletes (runners specifically).
