Dance105 is very unfriendly to people without ballet background, and the scores are very strict, although she always emphasizes that she is not very mean.Rate My Professors ↗

Liz is so nice. Yes Pilates Mat I, was not super easy and the quizzes were a little difficult but not impossible. Very interesting class and would def suggest.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Liz is very kind and cares for her students. However, Pilates Mat I, a 1 credit class has been nowhere near easy and fun. There are 3 exams on the anatomy of the body in correlation to the exercises and a final where you have to perform the Pilates flow based on memorization. If you miss 3+ classes without make-up, you fail.Rate My Professors ↗
