🇬🇧 Beyond the springs and straps lies a deeper lesson: the Reformer doesn’t demand perfection—it demands presence

Interview Summary – Day One of the STOTT PILATES® Reformer Beginner Course The interview explores the first day of a beginner Reformer course at Studio Biopilates Paris, France's official STOTT PILATES® training center. The guest, Caroline Berger, describes the studio as a space for transformation, focused on precision, safety, and accessibility in Pilates education. She defines STOTT PILATES® as a contemporary evolution of the original method, rooted in modern biomechanics and rehabilitation science. The method's key emphasis lies in mastering the Five Basic Principles: breathing, pelvic placement, ribcage placement, scapular stabilization, and head-neck alignment. The structure of Day One is designed to guide students into these principles through hands-on practice and active observation. Caroline encourages students to listen to their bodies and move beyond mechanical execution, using the Reformer as a tool for self-awareness. She insists that the Reformer is not about perfect form but mindful presence. Peer observation, she adds, plays a critical role in helping future instructors develop their ability to see, analyze, and adjust with clarity and empathy.Hosted by Ausha.
