Hi Erin, I will be filming for Pilates Fusion Education tomorrow- I watched your video on leg length discrepancy and I’d love to work with you. I am a former principal ballerina with right leg 1cm longer and more hyperextended-
left leg had surgery so doesn’t hyper extend – it’s a constant battle that causes pain in the hip and difficulty connecting the knee to quad on hyperextended right leg.
Do you ever do zoom? I live in California.
Thank you. Stephanie
