How Reformers work
-
Reformer Pilates is a program of resistance exercise, working very precisely on good alignment, core stability, strength and flexibility.
-
Reformers have a flat platform that rolls on wheels along a frame. Your body weight and spring tension changes how challenging the exercises are.
