Side-Lying Leg Work on the Reformer
This exercise is a beautiful combination of hip mobility, lower-body strength and core stability. Working against the spring resistance challenges the muscles around the hip while the trunk has to stay controlled and stable.

What is it good for?
• Strengthening the glutes and hip stabilisers
• Improving hip mobility and control
• Challenging lateral core stability
• Developing coordination and body awareness
• Teaching the body to move the leg without losing pelvic alignment

What to pay attention to:
• Keep the pelvis stable — avoid rolling forward or backward
• Keep the supporting side of the body active
• Move from the hip rather than swinging the leg
• Maintain a long spine and relaxed shoulders
• Control the spring both out and back in
• Choose a resistance that allows you to keep precise technique throughout the movement

Quality over range. A smaller, controlled movement with a stable pelvis is much more effective than chasing a bigger range with compensation.

Reformer Standing Split / Lunge Variation

A beautiful Pilates exercise for building strength, stability and length through the whole body. This variation challenges the legs while also asking the core to control the pelvis and the upper body to stay beautifully aligned.

What is it good for?
• Strengthens the glutes, hamstrings and legs
• Improves hip mobility and flexibility
• Challenges core and pelvic stability
• Develops balance and body awareness
• Creates a strong feeling of length through the entire body

What to focus on:
-Keep the pelvis as stable and square as possible
-Think of lengthening, rather than forcing the split
-Keep the supporting leg active and the knee tracking in line with the foot
- Engage the core to avoid collapsing into the lower back
- Keep the shoulders relaxed and the neck long
- Move the carriage with control, not momentum
- Only go as far as you can maintain good alignment and control

Quality over range of motion. It’s to create strength, stability and mobility while staying in control.

Why do I use the ball?

Because it gives the upper body something to work against while the other leg is moving with the loop.

This creates more connection through the whole body and makes it easier to work on control and stability.

It’s a small detail, but it changes the exercise.

It’s a beautiful combination of strength, mobility and control.

What I love about this exercise:
• challenges the obliques and deep core
• works on thoracic rotation and mobility
• opens the chest and creates length through the side of the body
• challenges shoulder stability
• teaches you to control your body while moving into a bigger range

Keep the pelvis stable, stay connected through the supporting side, and create the rotation from the upper/mid back rather than forcing it from the lower back.

The first pull of the arm sets the movement — the rotation comes afterwards.

Less momentum, more control. That’s where the work is.

Put together a new footwork sequence today.

Nothing fancy. Just a few new ideas, different combinations, and 8–10 reps of each.

I like creating drills that make you think, move, adjust and stay sharp. Sometimes the best progress comes from simply trying something new and seeing where it takes you.

Keep experimenting. Keep moving. Keep working.

This kneeling Pilates exercise is great for building core strength, shoulder stability and control through the whole body.

A few things to watch:

- Keep the ribs connected — don’t let the lower back take over.
- Stay tall through the spine instead of collapsing forward.
- Keep the shoulders relaxed and away from the ears.
- Move the arms with control, not momentum

The goal is to stay in control the whole way.

Save this one for your next Pilates session.
