Thanks, Amy, I woke up and arthritis in my hands was horrible. No problem with this workout, not too much pressure on my hands. Jennifer I love my balance body studio reformer with the tower. I had an Allegro and an old studio. I sold both and bought a brand new one last year. I added red springs to the tower and got 2 red, 1 green,1 blue and 1 yellow spring for my reformer. It's perfect! my husband built me a spring rack just like the one balance body has on their site. It makes it easy to grab what I need and looks pretty awesome on the wall too.

Hi Lisa -- thank you for the feedback. !

Thank you everyone....it makes me smile ear to ear when I read comments like these!

Jennifer -- I'm like using the Gratz when I'm doing the original Method and it's repertoire. It works, period. If I'm feeling in the mood to do something off the traditional/authentic track, I enjoy the Balanced Body equipment. It provides a wonderful environment to change angles of ropes, pullies, springs etc. I think both is ideal. If you don't have to switch out your equipment -- don't. It's a wonderful educational tool for body, mind, spirit to feel the differences on the different equipment.

Thanks Lisa and Amy Havens your feedback helps! :o)

Would you do the first part (articulating bridge) with osteoporosis or modify? Thanks

Hi Liz, good question -- I would need a bit more information about the student/person ie: where is their osteoporosis more present -- hip or spine and if spine, what degree of osteo do they have? To be more safe all around and for you/a teacher to avoid possible questions -- I would leave it out and do a neutral bridge instead. Without knowing/seeing the person in front of me however, they may be able to articulate. When in doubt, leave it out.

Woooowww, this was my first home reformer practise on my brand new reformer I love it!! Now I am even more addicted to Pilates Thanks Amy x

Hi Julie -- Yay, how exciting!! Thank you for moving with me while you broke in your new home Reformer ! Keep it up!

Love all of your classes I do; I always feel fantastic afterwards..Thank You :)
