Seller's description

A client on the reformer can't hold the exercise, or she is cruising through it. Either way you need one change that meets her where she is, without stopping the room. These 61 reformer cards give you that change for every exercise from footwork to the splits: one option with more support, one that takes it further, and the lever each one moves, so you can see what made the difference.

Reformer Pilates Progressions and Regressions is a printable deck for reformer instructors. Each card is one exercise, drawn. Under the name sit the load (light, medium or heavy) and what the spring is doing on that exercise, with what heavier and lighter each change. Then the two options, the fault that says to step her down, and the control that says she is ready to move up. A line at the foot names the next exercise in its ladder, so the deck also maps the path from Elephant to Long Stretch and from Short Box Round to Tree.
