 I took the Master Evolution 1: Foot to Core, and recently this past weekend, Master Evolution 2: Pelvis and Spine Works. Two words to sum it up: Amazing and Phenomenal courses. Marie-Jose took me to another level of understanding body movement and impairments and really stretch my analytical thinking beyond outside of the box. I work with special needs children and have been looking at these children more differently now and have even more better understanding the source of their impairments, deviations and applying the principles that I have learned from you and stretching their limited movement functional patterns beyond what they are capable of. I have had good positive feedback from these children and also from their parents, especially in terms of how much easier for them to care for their hygiene needs and self-care skills. Thank you very much Marie-Jose for stretching my knowledge physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. You have helped me to think more of the details of body mechanics, static movements and dynamic movements pertaining to our daily function. Now that I have learned the Pilates repertoire through my certification, it is time to learn more in detail behind each principles, each movement, why are we doing this?, why the movement?, what is the purpose?, really understanding it in my body to be able to convey it to these kids, etc......the quest!!!....never ends!!! I look forward to continuing my learning journey from you and dissect your brain (in a good way). I am extremely grateful to you, and "may the force be with you!" (Sorry, I had to add that phrase, as I am a Star Wars geek fan!) Date of Posting: 01 June 2010 Posted By: Godfrey Say Pediatric Physical Therapist, Certified Pilates Practitioner, Certified Yoga Practitioner, California Children\'s Services, Orange County I have had the pleasure to learn from Marie-Jose' and find her passion for teaching wonderful. In addition, she is someone that 'walks the talk' to assist those that are enthusiastic to learn. She has one of the busiest schedules I know and makes a point to support avid learners to come on board to learn more.Date of Posting: 03 September 2009 Posted By: Stacy Barrows PT/Owner at Century City Physical Therapy I wanted to thank Marie-Jose for everything she taught me in the Pilates Certification Program. I am now going for my Doctorate in Physical Therapy and feel well prepared for the material because of the training I did with MJ years ago. As I sit in class I often hear the frantic frenzy of the other students because everything is brand new for them. And I keep thinking to myself, I have done this before... it's Pilates! Today we discussed Janda's pelvic crossed syndrome and I immediately thought of MJ because she introduced me to the concept of "locked long and short" muscles. This principle guides my daily practice with clients and created the lens by which I see movement and compensatory patterns. I am grateful that I was taught more than just Pilates exercises with MJ's program, but rather how to understand the body.Date of Posting: 31 May 2009 Posted By: Andrea Cordova-Caddes PMA CPT, SPT, CLMA, California “I wanted to thank you again for a wonderful inspiring weekend at your Pilates Foundation course in London. I have gone away with so much to mull on and so much to play with! Tonight I managed to release my 7 year olds’ sternum through hands on the sacrum which then cleared his nose so he could breathe unrestricted. He has cystic fibrosis and so struggles with rigidity through his torso from all the coughing he has to put up with. I feel we’ll all get more sleep from now on.’Posted 5/18/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Rosie Minogue Pilates Foundation, London “I’m writing as I was lucky enough to do three workshops with Marie-Jose this weekend and, like many other people I spoke to was totally inspired by the sessions. Whilst they were fantastic, I do have one complaint. . . they weren’t long enough and I want to do more!!’Posted 5/17/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Serena Joy Holland “. . . . I use the opportunity to tell you that your Presentation at the “International Polestar Pilates Conference” in Koln has made me a better teacher. Great connections! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.’Posted 5/17/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Elisabeth Urban Germany www.pilatesstudiohamburg.de “This course should be a prerequisite for every new teacher. The depth of the work is profound.’Posted 5/17/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Melissa Macourek Pilates Teacher, Samsara Pilates “This course was extremely informative. The direction and course design was coordinated in a way that made a lot of information easy to digest and visualize.’Posted 5/17/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Deno Golding Personal Trainer, Los Angeles “Half of the learning experience depends on the quality of the teacher. Marie-Jose has developed a complete introductory curriculum which she teaches in a focused, progressive manner that helps the student integrate all aspects of Pilates training. First the abstract information of the physiology prepares for the later practical information which promotes successful integration of cuing and movement.’Posted 5/16/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Suzette Smith “Core Intelligence is a well laid out course that succeeds in translating complex anatomical concepts in easily understood practical examples. This makes it a wonderful introduction to Pilates teacher training especially for the novice.’“I thoroughly enjoyed learning from Marie-Jose’ Posted 5/16/09 Date of Posting: 15 May 2009 Posted By: Michelle Schrupp El Segundo Submit A Testimonial
