Reformer Pilates Lesson Plan for Instructors, Full Body, Beginner to Intermediate, Every Exercise Drawn

Your next class is tomorrow, the room holds a first-timer and a regular who has been coming for a year, and the plan is not written. This is one full-body 50-minute reformer class, planned line by line, with every exercise drawn and an easier and a harder option on every line, so the same sheet teaches whoever walks in.

Full Body Reformer Lesson Plan is one ready-to-teach class, beginner to intermediate. The line itself is written to be someone's first class. The harder option takes each exercise toward the intermediate order, one change at a time, inside the same exercise. A short table tells you which column to teach in a beginner room, a mixed room and an intermediate room. Five swaps follow the sheet, each on the same load and ending in the same place as the line it replaces, so swapping all five gives you a second class with the same arc.

✓ Every exercise is drawn beside its line, so you can glance down mid-class and keep teaching
✓ Both options are already written, so nobody in the room waits while you think of one
✓ The options change the body, never the springs, so nobody stops to reach for the load mid-set
✓ Getting on, getting off, the box and every load change are written into the transitions
✓ Load is written as light, medium or heavy for your machine, never a spring color, so the plan works on any brand of reformer
