Reformer Professional Development
Pilates based – Fascia focused – Practical
The Reformer offers a wealth of possibilities for creating precise, functional and personalised movement experiences. Our practice-oriented professional development courses combine the principles of the Pilates Method with FAMO Fascia Movement®, sound theory and practical ideas you can bring straight into your teaching.
The seminars are designed for Reformer teachers and movement professionals who want to deepen their knowledge, discover new perspectives and support clients safely and confidently through different stages of life.
Both seminars are standalone professional development courses and can be attended independently. Active Pregnancy on the Reformer is not part of the Pre- & Postnatal Trainer programme.
FAMO FASCIA MOVEMENT® ON THE REFORMER
Fresh inspiration for your teaching
Discover how a conscious focus on fascia can shape movement, stability and vitality throughout the body. At the heart of this seminar are tensional strength, elasticity, fluidity and responsiveness – fascial movement qualities that we deliberately integrate into training on the Reformer.
The workshop is based on the principles of FAMO Fascia Movement® by art of motion. You will explore innovative techniques that specifically engage the fascia, support fascial glide and enhance movement quality, efficiency and body awareness.
Together, we will explore the myofascial meridians and their role in functional movement on the Reformer. You will develop a deeper understanding of the body as an interconnected and adaptable system and discover how a fascial perspective can bring lasting depth and variety to your teaching.

ACTIVE PREGNANCY ON THE REFORMER
Safe, functional & fascia-focused support throughout pregnancy
Pregnancy is a unique time of change. The female body adapts continuously and accomplishes remarkable things. Fascia and muscles, the pelvic floor and core, breathing and the entire movement system all adapt and deserve mindful, targeted support during this special stage of life.
This workshop combines the principles of FAMO Fascia Movement® by art of motion with prenatal Reformer training. You will learn how to support pregnant women safely, functionally and with a resource-oriented approach.
We combine established FAMO techniques with specific Reformer exercises that support stability, breathing, postural ease and functional movement during pregnancy, while also laying valuable foundations for postnatal recovery.
You will explore how the physical changes of pregnancy affect posture, movement and physical capacity and learn how to take these changes into account in your teaching. In doing so, you can support movement quality, body awareness and adaptability, helping women feel strong, mobile and confident in their changing bodies.
