[quote=Anonymous]Reformer pilates. Book a 1:1 appointment to start so you can make sure you are doing the movements correctly with the machines and learning which muscles to engage. Pure Barre is not great because I agree, the instructors do not do enough postural corrections (maybe it's a liability to do them but should be in the waiver). Having correct alignment is how you engage the muscles and avoid injury. It's the same with yoga. If the teacher does not actively check and adjust students posture, there will be very little improvement and incorrect forms can cause injury. Of course, incorrect adjustments can cause injury too, which is why it's important to disclose any major issues with an instructor before class. Pilates/Barre/Yoga and free weights are all about finding the correct form for your particular body in order to avoid injury and get the maximum benefits.[/quote]
