CALLING ALL YOGA AND FITNESS INSTRUCTORS!! Elevate your teaching. Deepen your practice. Transform your approach to mindful movement.

This comprehensive Reformer Pilates Teacher Training is designed for yoga, fitness, and movement professionals looking to expand their skillset and deliver intelligent, empowering, and mindful Reformer classes. Through hands-on learning, practical application, and guided mentorship, you’ll gain the tools and confidence to teach Reformer Pilates with precision, creativity, and purpose.

Course Highlights:
1. Reformer Anatomy & Mechanics
Gain a deep understanding of the Reformer’s structure and function. Learn the anatomy of each component—carriage, springs, footbar, pulleys, ropes, and shoulder blocks—and how they work together to create resistance and support. Explore proper equipment setup, spring tension variations, and how to modify the machine to fit every body type safely and effectively.

2. Class Planning & Programming
Learn how to structure a balanced and effective Reformer class from start to finish. We’ll break down class formats for strength, mobility, balance, and endurance, and teach you how to sequence exercises that flow seamlessly while maintaining intelligent progression. You’ll leave with templates for multiple class formats and the confidence to design your own cohesive sessions.

3. Welcoming Beginners
Develop the skills to confidently teach first-time Reformer clients. Understand common fears and challenges, and learn cueing strategies, modifications, and progressions that ensure safety and success. Create an inclusive, encouraging environment where every participant feels seen, supported, and capable.

4. Teaching to All Levels
Master the art of layering movement and offering options for every level—from beginner to advanced athlete. Learn to read the room, adjust in real time, and guide mixed-level classes with ease and professionalism. You’ll explore how to build strength and skill safely while challenging experienced clients to refine their form and focus.

5. Creating a Cohesive Class Flow
Discover how to transform a series of exercises into a seamless, intelligent experience. You’ll practice linking movements with purpose, using transitions that maintain rhythm and energy, and balancing intensity with recovery. The result: classes that feel intentional, empowering, and complete.

6. Safety & Alignment
Prioritize proper alignment and injury prevention in every session. Learn key anatomical landmarks, contraindications, and how to spot and correct misalignments. Develop a keen eye for form while maintaining a supportive and mindful teaching style.

7. Music Integration
Explore how to use music as a motivational and energetic tool to enhance your Reformer classes. Learn how tempo, rhythm, and emotion influence movement quality, pacing, and focus. Whether you prefer a slow, mindful flow or an upbeat sculpt-style session, you’ll discover how to curate playlists that complement your class design and elevate the experience.

8. Mindfulness on the Reformer
Bring intention and awareness to the physical practice. Learn to weave breathwork, body awareness, and mindfulness cues into your teaching so that every class feels grounding, focused, and transformative. This section blends the precision of Pilates with the presence of yoga—helping clients connect more deeply to their bodies and breath.

By the end of this training, you will:
• Confidently teach safe, effective, and inspiring Reformer classes.
• Understand Reformer anatomy and mechanics for smart programming.
• Integrate music, mindfulness, and flow into your classes.
• Offer creative, multi-level progressions and modifications.
