Thank you for your video! Wonderful workout and your cuing is simple and clear. Last side lying work out was challenging but feel good after that. Looking forward to more work out with your channel.
I have suffered for years with hip pain and IT band pain. I have done numerous exercises and countless visits to the chiropractor with little relief. This routine my friend has absolutely cured my pain!!!!!!! Thank you, thank you. I am so blessed to have found your channel.
Hey J! That is AMAZING to hear!!! This is why I do what I do - so that people can feel better in their bodies, and when I hear success stories like yours, it really makes my day :) Thanks so much for sharing.
J Mayo Hi J I currently have those same issues and have been going to athe chiropractor which is not helping with the pain or range of motion. How long did you do the reformer work before you achieved relief? Hope to join you soon J and Sarah ❤️❤️
Really enjoyed this. I have a chronic health condition so have to play at 0.75 speed to make room for all the breathing and pauses I need, but hopefully with repetition I'll get to normal speed someday! :D
I feel amazing after this workout- I have a semi - lousy well loved reformer and was getting quite stale with my workouts. This felt like early days when I just feel so amazing after the workout . thanks so much for sharing these! You have made me rededicated to pilates!
Love your new workout! I particularly love the outer thigh work. I wish I loved in Asheville because I would be in your studio 2 times a week for classes! Instead, I follow along at home. Thank you!
The feet bar on that machine is adjustable, being able to slide all the way to the rear of the machine? Do you perform any exercises using that feature? Great video
Hi Cindy! Excellent! If you haven't had prior Pilates Reformer training, I highly suggest you start with some one-on-ones or group classes before doing it yourself :) Have fun!
Thanks! I love Pilates Anytime! I constantly get ideas from other teachers, whether it's from membership websites, Instagram, or RUclips! I love the Pilates community out there :)
Thanks for this video. One little thing though I have the video volume turned all the way up and the sound turned all the way up on my computer to be able to hear your commands on my reformer from my laptop. I think future videos could be really improved by wearing a microphone. Also by being louder, it'd enable those of us that like working out to music to have a little. :) Anway, thanks for the burn!
Thanks for the feedback Andrea! I actually started using a mic a few months ago (you can see it in my newer videos). I feel like it made a difference, but let me know if you're still having issues.
Loved this workout and all your videos. Great outer thighs, back and abs. By any chance can you do a Motr video? Just purchased one. Can't wait to try it. Thank you for all your brilliant work.
Hi Liz! SO good to hear, thank you! I don't have a Motr, but would love to try it some day! Let me know what you think about it. Thanks for your support :)
Pilates teacher here. I would not call this "all levels". Side lying and core demands needed to do these moves make these moves intermediate to advanced, imho.
Thanks for making this video, I have just purchased a Pilates reformer and there is no real expertise where I live. Can you point me to where I can get some basic vids and instruction online ?
Hi there! I now offer private training via Skype/Facetime. If interested, please contact me at gabrielle@saranpilates.com or click this link: www.saranpilates.com/remote-training/ If you don't have a lot of experience on the reformer machine, I highly recommend either private sessions or group classes. Hope that helps! :)
Hi Donna - if you are talking about the footwork (feet on bar and pressing out), I like to play around with the breath patterns. If I want to focus on activating the legs more on the way in, I will exhale when the carriage pulls to the bar, and then vice versa if I want to focus more on the control going out.
Hey!! I want to move more and do sports but I dislike the idea of going to the gym so my question is: Is this sport effective? Will it tone the body? Thank you very much, you are so kind and lovely.❤
Hi Sandra! I also hate going to the gym, and am so thankful I found Pilates! Pilates will tone your muscles big time! These exercises may seem easy when looking at them, but they demand a lot of muscle control and activation. I'm often sore the next day from a challenging Pilates workout. With the reformer machine, you work with resistance weight, making it an ideal low-impact muscle toning workout! Hope that helps :)
Hi Cammilla! Thanks so much for the feedback. I'll try to speak up and not call out the spring changes while I change the springs - hopefully that will work better :)
Just what I needed for my first workout on my at home reformer. Thank you
This was a great beginner workout. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you. I really enjoyed this class for the pace and instruction. It will be definitely added to my shelter in place workouts.
Happy to be of help during these tough times!
This is one of the best 30 minute workouts ever!
:) So sweet to hear!
Love this great full body strong class! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
I bet this would be great for me and my bad left leg
Excellent instruction. Thank you so much.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful :)
Thank you for your video! Wonderful workout and your cuing is simple and clear. Last side lying work out was challenging but feel good after that. Looking forward to more work out with your channel.
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed the workout! Yes, the side lying work is challenging but so rewarding :)
LOVE your workouts! Thank you!!
Aww thank you so much!

Hi Sara, slowing it down is never a bad idea! I bet you get even more out of it ;)
Awesome workout. Thank you!!
Glad you liked it!!
Great routine and great instruction! Pretty space too x
Thanks Lisa!
Confidence for the 1st time, thank you
Great workout! I understood some techniques that I've never quite grasped before thanks to your great guidance.
That's so great to hear - I'm so glad it helped!! :D
My Reformer should be arriving from Amazon this week. Looking forward to using your clear and concise videos to learn to use it!
Hi John, hope your time with your reformer is going well!
Thank you for this great video!!!!!!!!!!! love it!

Great class again 1

Thanks Lucy!

Emily thank you so much for your kind words! Outer thigh exercises are my favorite!! :) Glad these videos are helping out!
Great workout! I'm a beginner with the reformer but workout everyday! It was easy to follow and I feel tight and loose !! 😌
Glad to hear it!! :) Thanks for the love!
Thanks for doing a talk through video! Can you please tell me what kind of ball that is?
Glad you enjoyed it! :) That ball, I believe I got on amazon... it's a fitness ball that I deflated a little.
Me encantó su rutina, solo q no me queda muy claro los resortes (,rojo, amarillo o azul) q debo poner.
Thank you! Does your reformer not have similar springs?
Awesome! 🙏
Thank you!
The feet bar on that machine is adjustable, being able to slide all the way to the rear of the machine? Do you perform any exercises using that feature? Great video
Hi! Yes, I use the infinity bar a lot... I have a few videos out that include exercises with the bar back. I love that feature :)
Great workout with some interesting variations.
Thank you! :)
I'm so glad I found your video! I can try this out at my gym, they have an older model of the Balance Body reformer!
Hi Cindy! Excellent! If you haven't had prior Pilates Reformer training, I highly suggest you start with some one-on-ones or group classes before doing it yourself :) Have fun!
I had 2 months group classes already, thanks!
Looks good...reminds me of Pilates Anytime recent reformer workout.

Nice workout! Love the roll down series. :)

Excellent. Thank you.

Great moves!
What brand reformer do you have on this video?
I believe it’s the balance body allegro 2
That's right - it's an Allegro 2 from Balanced Body. I believe the link is in the comments (?)
Really enjoyed this thank you! One of these days, I'm coming to Asheville!
Thanks Meredith! Yes, please do :)
Loved this workout and all your videos. Great outer thighs, back and abs. By any chance can you do a Motr video? Just purchased one. Can't wait to try it. Thank you for all your brilliant work.

Try John Garey Pilates on youtube
do you inhale when you push away from bar to inhale when you get close?
Hi Donna - if you are talking about the footwork (feet on bar and pressing out), I like to play around with the breath patterns. If I want to focus on activating the legs more on the way in, I will exhale when the carriage pulls to the bar, and then vice versa if I want to focus more on the control going out.
Great workout. Thank you
Happy you liked it! Thanks for watching :)
hi what in the brand name of this machine?
It's an Allegro 2 from Balanced Body. I added a link to it in the description of the video :)
Where do they have Pilates classes in northern Ohio?
What type of reformer are you using?
The Allegro 2 from Balanced Body. See link: www.pilates.com/BBAPP/V/index.html?bbAffiliateID=STO0NC0049
Thank you for your video, I love the machine! Would you mind to tell me what's kind the machine and how much ? I would love to get one ! Thank you 😍
looks like an allegro 2
Hi :) It's an Allegro2 from Balanced Body
Love the workout! And also your top where did you get it?
Thanks! I believe this top is from Alo Yoga
FYI - The link for purchasing doesn't work.
Thanks Daniel - I'll take a look :)
Is there a discount code for the pilates reformer link you posted or why should I click on your link?
No discount code, unless you call them and mention my name Gabrielle Saran :)

What kind of reformer is that?
It's an Allegro2 by Balanced Body
This was a great workout, but on the side lying series, I don't think the second side had as many reps. It seems too rushed.
Hi JP, us Pilates instructors are known to be horrible counters :D
love!!! thanks gf!!!
Curious to know what type / model reformer you have
It's the Allegro 2 from Balanced Body. Here's the link: www.pilates.com/BBAPP/V/index.html?bbAffiliateID=STO0NC0049
Ruecker Cliff
really nice workout. Only complaint is that I really have trouble hearing how many strings you put on when you switch and I have a stott reformer...
Hi Cammilla! Thanks so much for the feedback. I'll try to speak up and not call out the spring changes while I change the springs - hopefully that will work better :)
You could achieve the same at a Gym with basic resistance machines.
Hi Carl, have you ever tried Pilates on a Reformer?
bad
