Reformer 101

 A SPYNE Pilates Studio 2 week series of getting to know the Pilates Reformer, learning new exercises, and learning how to engage your core. The goal of this series is to get newbies familiarized with the reformer, your spring tension, your settings, and become familiar with the basic cues which will keep you moving along in class.

We promise that at the end of this series the Reformer will not look like a torture device anymore and you’ll be ready to join Reformer Essentials classes.

The Instructor – Simone Pyne

Pilates instructor, Studio Owner

Simone is the owner of SPYNE Pilates Studio and has been practicing Pilates for over 13 years. She has always been physically active – aerobics, weight training, running etc. and discovered that Pilates was not just an exercise, but challenged her both physically and mentally. Simone took her love of Pilates to the next level and started her formal training in 2010. She received her Stott Mat and Reformer certification in 2012 and her Total Barre certificate in 2013, PiYo – Strength in 2014 and Injuries & Special Population (ISP) in 2016, Buff Bones certified 2019, and completed her Fascial Movement Foundation course in 2020. In addition Simone gained her full certification in 2023. Continuing education is top of mind for Simone because she believes in being in the know within the fitness industry and adding variety and spice to her sessions and classes.  Simone works mostly with clients that are within the injuries and special population, pre and post-surgery by helping them delay, get ready or recover from injuries or weaknesses in their joints and body.  Providing a safe, inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome, no matter their color, shape, size, or orientation is important to her because “we all deserve to be happy, and getting healthy is the first step”.
