Reformer for Healthy Spine - Dr. Brent Anderson is back with his tips and techniques to maintain your healthy spine when working on the Reformer. Practice exercises like "the typewriter," knee circles and some wonderful exercises for thoracic mobility. In this class, Brent's student Kristi was just returning to movement after nearly a month of restricted breathing due to a bout with Pleurisy. With Brent's guidance Kristi moved and was moved in a way she hadn't been in some time. We hope you enjoy class too. (Filmed January 19, 2013)

Kristi, thank you so much for sharing! I've been having this same problem since this past Christmas and as you said it's scary to move sometimes. I'm going to try this class myself with the help of my teacher!
Thank you very much Brent

If I was looking for my next mentor, Brent, I would be coming to Polestar. I am profoundly inspired by your teaching and with my changing relationship with my back challenges.

Aww man... now I'm gonna cry again! Thank you all for accepting and supporting the fact that Pilates has the ability to move us to our own next level. I thank you also for being so generous of spirit when witnessing the movement of another, in this case me, who felt to be in a vulnerable position. Brent... Thank you hardly seems to be enough. I trust you felt your gifts opening my airways as well as my being and will hope that serves you too.
