Are you a qualified Level 3 Pilates Matwork teacher ready to add Reformer to your teaching skills? 💗

Perhaps you’d love to teach Reformer but you’re not sure where to start — or you’ve looked at traditional Reformer training and wondered how some of those exercises would actually work with the real clients you teach every week.

That’s exactly why I created Reformer Fit Teacher Training.
Drawing on over 20 years of teaching Reformer, I’ll teach you a practical, contemporary approach that gives you the confidence to deliver Reformer sessions that are safe, effective, progressive and appropriate for your clients.

You can start with Reformer Fit Foundation and then progress to Advanced Reformer Teacher Training, building your knowledge and repertoire as your confidence grows.

📍 Training takes place at Claire’s Pilates Studio in Leeds
🏠 Have a team who need training? In-house Reformer training can also be arranged at your own studio.

If Reformer is the next step in your Pilates teaching journey, I’d love to help you get there.

🌸 NEW WORKSHOP – THE CONFIDENT PILATES TEACHER 🌸

Teaching Clients with Back Conditions
A client tells you they have a disc bulge, sciatica, spinal stenosis, osteoporosis or they've had back surgery…
Do you immediately start wondering:
What can I teach them?
What should I avoid?
Could I make it worse?
Is this actually within my scope of practice?
If so, this workshop is for you.

I've created The Confident Pilates Teacher to take away some of that uncertainty and give Pilates teachers a simple, practical way to make good teaching decisions.
We’ll look at common back conditions in straightforward, easy-to-understand language — without turning Pilates teachers into physiotherapists!

You'll learn how to use my two simple frameworks:
⭐ ASK → OBSERVE → MOVE → DECIDE
A practical way to assess your client, understand what matters and stay confidently within your scope of practice.
⭐ START → BUILD → CHALLENGE → REVIEW
A straightforward approach to programming, progression and progressive overload.

We'll cover real client scenarios, exercise adaptations, red flags, language and cueing, building strength after pain or injury, and importantly when the most confident decision is to refer.
My philosophy throughout the workshop is simple:
Don't just teach the painful part. Teach the person attached to it.
The aim isn't to leave knowing hundreds more exercises.
It's to leave thinking:
“When a client tells me they have a back condition, I know what to do next.”

📅 Sunday 13th September
📍 LIVE VIA ZOOM - RECORDING INCLUDED
Perfect for Pilates teachers who want to feel more knowledgeable, more confident and less fearful when working with clients with back conditions.
