What Rachel teaches
Rachel's classes are mostly Pilates on the reformer. Nearly all of what Rachel leads falls in this practice, and the reformer is the apparatus that runs through almost every session. Some classes are flowing and others are stronger, and about a third carry a strong energy, so the range covers both calm, controlled work and more demanding sets.
The example classes on this page, Pilates Reformer Flow and Pilates Power Reformer, both run 45 minutes at Lincoln Park Pilates & Events. Those names show the two sides of Rachel's teaching: one moving with a steady rhythm, the other pushing the work harder.
