REFORMER - Induction 30 min class

If you're new to using a Pilates Reformer, this class is a must. We will introduce you to the Six Pilates Principals and give you a quick tour of the reformer machine, explaining all the parts of the machine and how to use them. This will ensure that you fell comfortable using the machine when you go to participate in a class. It also ensures your safety. You will be taken through a few basic exercise flows and stretches. This class is a brief introductory class of 30 minutes and you may attend as many times as you like until you feel comfortable enough to attend a full class. You will experience 2-3 exercises from each set. For example; 2 x arms in straps, 2 x feet in straps, 2 x foot on bar, 2 x box work, 2 x standing series, 2 x core. The difference between this and the 15 minute Induction is: The 30 minute option is broken up into a 10 minute walk around the reformer machine and explaining how it moves and operates. The next 20 minutes is your opportunity to carry out a few moves to see if it is something you are physically capable of doing and something that you would like to do. The 15 minute Induction includes: A walk around the reformer machine and explaining how it moves and operates only. You do not get to carry out any moves on the machine. This is because it is designed for you to do this first and then come back another time for a Gentle Reformer class or go straight into the Gentle Reformer scheduled immediately after the 15 minute induction.
