Original Exercises + The Universal Reformer + The “Wearable Reformer”
Certified Pilates teachers deserve some "Me Time" to nurture themselves personally and improve their teaching. Pilates must be experienced in the body. The work needs to be felt in all its dimensions. This goes far beyond choreography and familiar cueing to explore Joe’s original Contrology and rediscover these foundational principles.
Feedback on Testing TYE4X® on the Reformer
“PUFF It Happens!! The sensation with TYE4X resistance feels totally engaging so you automatically focus on the correct target areas without even making a conscious effort.” - Roberta Trzebinski, Former STOTT Master Pilates Teacher & owner of YogaFitLates & Pink Ribbon Exercise
“TYE4X on the reformer apparatus gives the body clearer sensory feedback. I have found this tool to be helpful in my two year Cancer treatment journey.” - Patricia Kreiner NCPT®
“Using TYE4X while doing Short Box exercises with the front cross bungees helps one root down into the box and up through the heart center. In Chest Expansion, there is more control in both directions and more feedback on the arm press.” - Alejandra Bozzolasco, MSW, LCSW, PhD
“This is the first time I’ve really “got” Chest Expansion. I felt like I never used to turn my head sideways and now with the harness/bungee assistance it made the exercise so much better.”
- Donna Mckenna, Studio Owner
“It is amazing how improved every single reformer exercise is with the support and resistance of the bungees which adds to the structural support intrinsic in the actual Reformer. What a combo for a teacher to use to deepen the experience.” - Michelle Hoyos, Certified Pilates Teacher
“Adding Leg bungees while using the Reformer straps helps hip placement and reduces stress on the knees and ankles. Adding Arm bungees spiraled along the arms creates a continuous connection through the 3 joints - shoulders, elbows, wrist - integrating the upper limbs with the scapular girdle and thoracic spine. This improves thoracic spine support and mobilization and the upper body floating.” - Dr. Elaine de Markondes
