About the Course
Foundation Level 1 Reformer Pilates Instructor Course - ActiveIQ Approved Course
What to Expect from the Course
Are you already a Pilates Matwork teacher? Maybe you're a Physiotherapist, a L4 Massage Therapist or some other manual therapist that is looking to add the Reformer machine to your repertoire of skills. Joseph Pilate's invention - The Reformer Pilates Machine - makes Pilates accessible to all your patients and clients who can not get up and down off the floor. It is a resistance machine favoured by celebrities across the world but more importantly than this - it has shorter recovery time for patients with back problems, recovering from operations and does help to strengthen & stabilise joints and the core of the body.
