Learn some of the history of the reformer apparatus from Ken Endelman as Kristi tries out a piece of equipment used by Joe himself.

Wowww! Thank you Kristi, very very cool indeed.
Here is the "classic picture" Ken refers to in the piece. I've seen this picture a million times and I never knew that they were sitting on a reformer. I always thought it was a barrel sitting on top of a mat!
Wish I had one (OK, maybe a LITTLE more padding!) LOVE the color.
Spectacular! Love it!
