Body Before Skill has a great range of videos and classes with something for everyone! ???? I particularly enjoy using the stretching and foam rolling videos to help with my flexibility for cheerleading. I always feel relaxed and energised after completing Jess' sessions. I can't forget to mention the BBS book, which is such a lovely informative resource!

BBS is an amazing tool and have greatly enjoyed doing all the exercises especially the hip and leg stretch. What I love about it the most is that there is a very comprehensive guide that comes with it so you can truly understand your body and how each exercise works. Everyone needs this in their life!

BBS is a great balance between videos and readings. All the exercices are well explained and the variety is great ! Foam rolling videos helped me so much, everything felt so stiff, and after only one session, it felt so good again. So thank you so much for all the great tips !
