" Elizabeth Larkam is a wonderful resource for teachers. She always explores all the choreographic possibilities of an exercise and her cues are specific and precise. "
Catherine B (Pilates Reformer Cues)
" I liked the workshop a lot. Not all have access to a rocker reformer, but it's good to know what it does. We can still use BOSU and balance board. But how the vestibular system is challenged by balance makes this a wonderful workshop... "
