C’était super! Doumé et Coco ont été présents durant toute la session quand il le fallait pour assurer la sécurité, corriger les défauts de posture et aussi redonner la petite dose de motivation qu’il faut. Résultat : j’ai résigné pour un 2e cours avec eux. Ce ne sera pas le dernier. J’en ai gardé un tres bon souvenir que j’espère renouveler.
