The Back Pain Class Blueprint: Free Starter Guide


A physiotherapist-led starter guide to modifying a group reformer class for back pain. Enter your name and email and we will send it straight to your inbox

What you will learn

  • ✓Why you ask which direction aggravates a client’s back, flexion or extension, instead of going by the label
  • ✓How to translate what clients say into a movement pattern
  • ✓A quick reference for disc injury, sciatica, spondylosis/spondylolisthesis and non-specific low back pain
  • ✓How to modify the bridge for clients with back pain

Who it is for

  • •Pilates instructors who teach group classes with back-pain clients
  • •Newer teachers who freeze when a client says “my back hurts”
  • •Experienced teachers who want a clearer way to modify without stopping the room

Why it matters

Back pain is one of the conditions instructors meet most often in group classes, and two clients with the same label can need different modifications. Asking the right question first makes your modifications simpler.
