Reformer Group Session Plan Case Study

Class name / level: Beginners level

Date: 2026-07-02

Class duration: 50 mins

Number of participants: 6

Target level: Beginner

Class goals: Full body strength,

Equipment setup: Medium to all springs used

Special considerations: Few modifications due to few past injuries to hamstrings,and few past shoulder injuries

Class management notes for warm-up: Position myself middle of room. If needed to demo I’ll use clients bed

Class flow & transition notes: Tried to keep exercises consistent,didnt want clients up and down off carriage.,

Individual attention strategy: When clients are lying supine,make sure that they pelvis is pressed against carriage..almost make sure clients are challenged but also maintaining proper spring strength so they can complete exercise.. and also listening out for short passive breaths from client,and that they aren’t holding breath in while doing exercises

Management notes: Few people were banging carriage so adjusted spring strength..transition went well.. safety of clients went well as I explained safety rules at start of class

Reflection: Felt a bit nervous but did a bit of deep breathing to calm nervous system. Next class would probably be work more in peoples breathing technique.. few struggled with flattening back while lying in supine position

Future class focus: Next class will focus on pelvic rotation to find neutral spine..
