Reformer on the Mat with Level III Master Instructor Trevor Schoonraad
The equipment was originally designed to assist the body in finding certain vital connections that might otherwise prove elusive or challenging when it is simply the body working against gravity in the Mat work.The Reformer on the Mat workshop will show you how to make the Reformer work accessible on the mat using a few simple props. You will learn how to replicate the assistance and resistance that the Reformer provides in order to facilitate those same connections within the body.
Course Objectives:
1. Gain a deeper understanding of the connections that the equipment provide within the body
2. Learn how to re-create those key connections on the mat
3. Develop the skillset to adapt any equipment exercise on to the mat using little or no props.
Why take this workshop?
During the this fun workshop we will take a look at some of the key Reformer exercises and explore how we can re-create them on the mat. You will learn a series of exercises that you can either incorporate in your mat classes to provide more challenge and variety or teach as a dynamic class on their own. You will also develop the skills to take any exercise from the Reformer and transfer its key elements onto the mat.
