Mat Workout - Rachel Taylor Segel returns to Pilates Anytime with this fun yet challenging Reformer on the Mat class. Keeping the class very close to the traditional work on the Reformer, you'll find yourself doing foot work right on through Rowing, Stomach Massage long stretch and much more. Some exercises work best if you either have socks or a towel to use, so be sure to have those handy. The students in class use a Mat that has a strap with it, but the exercises can be modified to be done without. If you want to do a Reformer class but don't have one handy, this is the class for you!

Malak~ I believe that the 'mat' they are using is part of the Tower apparatus and so not really a mat per se. Click here to see our Tower classes so that you can see why I think that. :)

nice! it's always fun to see what different teachers use to simulate the reformer. agree this is hard to do without a strap -- I guess I need to get a sandbag.

I would love to see another 'reformer on the mat' class that uses the small barrel or the reformer box.

Hannah is right that these mats are part of a Wall Unit (Tower/Pole System) made by balanced body. It is however a Mat much like the traditional Mat Joseph Pilates used. Sometimes people don't realize that the Mat is an apparatus itself.
