A CLOSER LOOK: The Roll Over
In this “Closer Look” session, Ilaria from FEET-NESS breaks down the Rollover, a classical advanced Pilates mat exercise. This workshop-style class focuses on safety, spinal articulation, and proper progression—especially for those working toward the full expression of the movement.
