'Cari is an amazing Master Pilates instructor. She can teach beginning or advanced students with ease. Her classes are challenging, informative, and fun! I would highly recommend taking this or any of her other classes- she's an absolute gem!

Roger Gonzalez has an encyclopedic knowledge about the history of Pilates. He is a wonderful instructor for students at all levels and his classes are always fantastic!

What a great team!!! '

'This was my first training. I loved our instructor, the class itself and walked away with a much broader view of pilates. I have had nothing but positive experiences with Balanced Body University and I recommend this class to anyone looking towards pilates training. I can't wait until my next class.'

'I very much enjoyed Roger's instruction and knowledge. He is very inspiring and I look forward to taking more modules with Balanced Body University! '

'Our presenter Roger Gonzalezz - Hibner was very thorough. Thanks, Roger!! '

'Roger and Elizabeth are extremely clear, thorough and passionate teachers. They give modifications for different levels and injuries, etc. I always come out of these weekends feeling like I'll be a better teacher with my clients and classes.'

'Roger is a great instructor. He always makes sure that I understood the exercise before moving on to the next one. Core Conditioning studio was a nice and clean studio and the staff was very helpful with any questions I had. Roger ROCKS!! teaching pilates. When I take Reformer 3, I will have Roger teach me again.'

'I am really enjoying my training through BBU. I have learned so much and becoming more passionate about pilates. I am becoming such a better teacher through this program. So happy to have found it!'

'I appreciate the supportive atmosphere that Core Conditioning provides, it is very nurturing and condusive to learning. I go into the studio to practice and the people are open and helpful, so that I am able to work through anything that we go over during the intensives. '

'Roger Gonzalez Hibner is a consummate teacher - one of the best I've encountered. He is skilled; extraordinarily well trained and embodies what "inspirational teaching" is all about. I have an anxiety disorder and suffer from depression so am more sensitive to pressure situations such as intensive training and all the scrutiny that brings. He made me feel welcome, comfortable and most importantly, ABLE to succeed. Thanks for the great learning opportunity.'

'The course was exceptionally good because it clarified the progression of exercise families from the very beginning to the most difficult and then took us (the students) on a journey of discovery, putting all the pieces of a good pilates session into place. '

'I thought that this course was taught very well, I learned a lot and look forward taking another class from Roger!'
