Classical Pilates Reformer Order for Instructors, 56 Illustrated Exercises, Basic Intermediate Advanced Guide PDF

Seller's description

Your client has done Footwork and the Hundred for six weeks. Is she ready for Coordination? For Overhead? The classical rule is simple: she works through the order and leaves out what she is not ready for. This book tells you how to know, at every exercise, and how to get the machine and her body into the next one without a stop.

It is the classical reformer order at Basic, Intermediate and Advanced, 56 exercises from Footwork to Russian Splits, each drawn, each with its place in all three orders. For instructors who teach the classical order, teachers trained in a contemporary school who now teach in a classical studio, and trainees learning the order by heart.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✔ The Basic, Intermediate and Advanced orders, one page each to print and keep by the reformer
✔ 56 classical exercises in Advanced order, each with its own line drawing of the defining moment
✔ For every exercise: its step at each level, springs, headrest and footbar, the set-up and the movement
✔ Add it when: what she already does well before this exercise joins her order
✔ It prepares: the later exercise or skill it builds
✔ Into the next: the machine change first, then how her body gets there, for every level the exercise sits in
✔ The one fault to watch, the change that fixes it, and the one thing to teach until she is ready
✔ The classical reformer in one drawn diagram, its nine parts numbered
✔ Springs two ways: the classical count of four matched springs, and a starting point for a mixed-spring reformer
✔ The transition chain for each level: every machine change from Footwork to the end
✔ A key from contemporary names (STOTT, BASI, Balanced Body and others) to the classical name and place in the order
✔ Where the lineages differ, and a six-rule safety floor
✔ Tabbed A4 PDF
