The aim of this workout is to increase the tone in your muscles and to lengthen your body.  By using spring loaded resistance with our Reformers, we can specifically target the spine, arms, legs and abdominals. Poses that we focus on include feet in straps, 4 point kneeling, standing on the reformer and in sidelying. Classes have limited availability at just 6 participants per class.
