The Reformer is a sliding, bed-like platform anchored at one end of its frame with resistance springs. The platform moves along a track by either pulling on ropes or pushing off from a stationary bar. The challenge of doing exercises on the Reformer comes from the resistance springs while maintaining core and hip stability and in more advanced exercises the challenge is maintaining balance on a moving surface. Matwork is the Pilates method in its purest form, however, not everyone has the strength to perform the work without assistance especially the rollup and teaser variations. There is so much more benefit to be had from training on Pilates equipment, especially the Reformer. The greatest benefits are obtained from private sessions, where the trainer focuses on you exclusively, and individually structures each workout to your particular goals and ability levels. |

More on Susan... Susan Authement Dunnam Susan started her Pilates journey in 1995 after injuring her back in a snowboarding accident while living in Aspen, Colorado.
