The Teachers who took the Pilates Injury Workshop: Lowerbody had a great time. You can check out some of the pictures on our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pilatestechnique

We covered a lot of material in a short amount of time. There was discussion about the teachers' own clients and some of the Lower body injuries they have come across.
