World-Class Reformer Training â Now in the North
Become an APPI Certified Reformer Instructor with this internationally recognised qualification delivered over three weekends at The Physio Rehab Barn, West Yorkshire.
Ideal for physiotherapists, Pilates instructors, PTs and movement professionals wanting to confidently teach Reformer in clinical or studio settings.
Why This Course?
A couple of years ago, when I was looking at Reformer qualifications myself, I was put off by the amount of travel, accommodation and time away from family involved because most courses were based down south.
In the end, I completed my Reformer training online.
However, over 20 years ago when I completed my mat Pilates training, I was lucky enough to learn face-to-face with Elisa, the founder of APPI â and honestly, there is no substitute for learning in person.
Thatâs why weâve partnered with APPI to bring high-quality, internationally recognised Reformer training to the North.

The Most Northern APPI Training Location
We are now the most northerly APPI Reformer training location currently running in the UK.
If youâre based in Scotland, the North of England or the Midlands, this course removes the need to travel to London or further south for high-level Reformer training.
This makes it much more practical to balance alongside work, life and family commitments.
Important Information
A recognised Matwork Pilates qualification is required before starting this course.
This does not need to be with APPI.
If you do not currently hold a Matwork qualification, APPI Matwork Fundamentals (ÂŖ419) can be completed beforehand.

Iâm 66 and other members of the class, both men and women, are retired too. I think all of us have health or muscular issues but we all manage the 4 circuits of 8 exercises, which change for each session. Itâs never too late to get some exercise and improve your fitness levels. Thanks JimPosted on Clementine PainterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Iâve been coming here for the past few weeks and I couldnât recommend this physio and studio enough. The team is welcoming, professional, and really takes the time to listen and understand your needs. The sessions are well-structured, effective, and Iâve already noticed real improvements. The studio itself is modern, clean, and has a great atmosphere that makes it enjoyable to come in. If youâre looking for a place that combines expert care with a friendly environment, this is the one!Posted on Frances JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great sports massage can highly recommend. Very professional.Posted on T WTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent initial diagnosis and treatment from Rosie. After being so disappointed with physio in Tod am so pleased to have found expert, professional and friendly advice. It might be a trek from Hebden but in my view is worth it. Many thanksPosted on Julie NeimantasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful and the classes varied. Would certainly recommend them.Posted on joanne WheelwrightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Back to Fitness Physio for rehabilitation physio on numerous occasions and have more recently started reformer Pilates classes. Both McKennzie and Charlotte, who have treated and instructed me, are extremely knowledgeable, professional and very welcoming. The classes are highly enjoyable, and Charlotte puts you at ease and talks you through each exercise with demonstrations. I highly recommend Back to Fitness.Posted on Ann ClayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Charlotte and team are excellent physios and have helped me enormously with different issues over the years. The Rehab Barn is a great addition and whilst I find Reformer Pilates is challenging (at my age!) I know Iâm in safe hands!Posted on Georgie BroadleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had a session at Back To Fitness Physio with McKenzie, and I couldnât be happier with the experience. McKenzie was incredibly clear and informative, taking the time to explain everything in a way that made sense. I felt completely comfortable throughout the appointment â they created a really relaxed and professional atmosphere. I left feeling more confident and better informed about my recovery. Highly recommend both McKenzie and Back To Fitness Physio!Posted on Amber BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such a lovely warm and welcoming place. EXPERTS! Rosie really was amazing thoroughly and extremely knowledgeable. We know sometimes it can be a painful journey having physio but she was exceptional, one treatment and I already feel a million times better. Looking forward to the rest of my recovery journey. Thank you.Posted on Craig MiddletonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very friendly and professional.
