40 Min Reformer Pilates | Lateral Flexion Focus

This 45-minute reformer class focuses on lateral flexion through slow, controlled movements to build strength, mobility, and control through the core and spine. Why we’re focusing on lateral flexion today: Lateral flexion (side bending through the spine) is an essential but often undertrained movement that supports how your body moves and stabilises in everyday life. Improves spinal mobility and freedom of movement Encourages healthy movement through the spine, helping reduce stiffness and allowing you to move more freely in all directions. Strengthens the obliques and deep core Teaches your body to control side-to-side movement, improving coordination and stability. Supports posture and alignment Builds strength that helps keep your spine aligned and upright, especially during asymmetrical movements. Improves how load is distributed through the body, helping to prevent compensations that can lead to discomfort. Builds functional strength This will help to supports everyday movements like reaching, carrying, bending sideways, and transitioning through space with more control!!
