Modified Reformer
Mike from Kula Solutions has helped us out with another project we've been thinking about for a while. Amy Alpers, one of our mentors from the Pilates Center at Boulder, gave us some ideas for making our Peak reformers more ergonomically correct. On one of our reformers, we've moved the shoulder blocks slightly forward on the carriage, which lengthened the headrest and allows people truly to REST the back of the head. This has been especially helpful for people with long necks. We also added a setting to the footbar height, so that we have more control of the angle of the legs on footwork. It is wonderful to see the way the weight of the springs can travel smoothly up the body when the angles of the leg joints aren't compromised!
