🇬🇧 Footwork on the Reformer a Stott Pilates and Joseph Pilates Exercise

In this episode of Biopilates Deep Dive – Season 2, Caroline Berger de Fémynie takes us through the depth and precision of footwork on the Reformer, a key component of the STOTT PILATES® method. Far from being a simple warm-up, this exercise reconnects the feet with the entire postural chain, from the arches to the pelvis. You’ll explore how foot placement affects knee alignment, how the three points of contact guide proprioception, and how worn-out shoes reveal compensatory movements. Caroline also explains the role of intrinsic foot muscles and emphasizes the importance of stabilizing the pelvis in a neutral position. We also delve into muscle physiology, providing a clear explanation of fiber types I, IIa, and IIb, and their roles in building strength, endurance, and responsiveness—a must-listen for anyone who teaches or practices Pilates with intention and intelligence.Hosted by Ausha.
