If you can survive this Hundred, you can survive anything.

I love The Hundred.

One exercise. Endless ways to progress it.

This variation was taken from my last Advanced Reformer Workshop and is a reminder that you don’t always need new exercises to create a challenge. Sometimes it’s about looking at familiar exercises through a different lens.

Sydney and Perth are up next.

📍 Advanced Reformer Workshop
• Sydney – 4 July (last spots remaining)
• Perth – 17 July (almost sold out)

📍 Upcoming Workshops

One of the biggest misconceptions I see with new instructors is thinking more layers automatically equals better teaching.

Sometimes an exercise needs two layers.

Sometimes it needs three.

Sometimes it needs four.

And sometimes the best decision is not to layer at all.

The goal isn’t to add as many options as possible. The goal is to give your clients the right challenge at the right time.

Great layering is about reading the room, understanding who’s in front of you, and making decisions that help everyone succeed.

This is one of the core skills we’ll be diving into during my Layering & Cueing Workshop this July in Sydney.

✅ How to layer without overwhelming clients
✅ When to progress and when to hold back
✅ Strategies for mixed-level classes
✅ Practical cueing frameworks you can use immediately

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering:

“Should I add another layer?”

“Should I progress this client?”

“How do I challenge the stronger clients without losing everyone else?”

This workshop is for you.

Early Bird pricing ends Sunday for in-person tickets.

💻 Virtual attendance available.

3 layers you can teach in your next Group Reformer class 👀

One exercise. Three different outcomes.

This is one of my favourite ways to create progression in group classes without completely changing the exercise.

Start simple.
Build confidence.
Layer complexity.

Your clients feel challenged.
You stay organised.
Everyone wins. 🙌

Hot tip for Teaser on the Long Box 👇

Try sitting in the front third of the box rather than directly in the middle.

This simple adjustment can make a huge difference to your centre of gravity, helping you feel more stable.

I’ll be sharing more tips like this inside my Advanced Reformer Masterclass in Sydney on July 4th.
