Collection: BASI Systems Pilates Reformers & Equipment

BASI Systems was created in 1989 by Rael Isacowitz, a Pilates teacher, author, and lecturer who first envisioned the company as an educational resource for teachers endeavoring to learn, teach and become qualified in the Pilates Method.

There are some unique features to the BASI Systems reformer you need to take into account when using it.

You have a greater capacity to fine-tune the control of the pulley angle using its EPS (enhanced pulley system) and its spring resistance system. Meaning, when you adjust your resistance you need to be mindful of the Pilates reformer’s capacity to offer both subtle and pronounced shifts in resistance.

Other than this, you use a BASI systems reformer like any other- you do the mat and reformer Pilates exercises that best help you achieve your fitness goals.

The benefits of using a Cadillac are staggering, and the benefits gained from a BASI System one are no different.

The Pilates Cadillac allows you to practice reformer exercises like rowing, short box, dead bug, and coordination stretch, but with a unique challenge due to the different types of springs.

It promotes lean muscle growth in the arms and hamstrings without putting pressure directly on the legs and offers Pilates enthusiasts the ability to attempt moves like the 180-degree inversion and extended pike.

These moves require a shocking amount of core strength, focus, flexibility and endurance, and open up the hips, shoulders, and back in a way reformer exercises don’t.

If you want to truly experience these benefits we recommend you visit our Pilates Cadillac Reformers and Trapeze collection and secure your Cadillac today- because exercising in the privacy, comfort, and freedom of your own space is unbeatable.

You adjust the BASI Pilates reformer using a series of levers and pulleys at the base of the machine, and you assemble it similarly.

There are a lot of individual steps for assembly so for a full list please check the instructions which come with the equipment. You will also find a detailed description of how to adjust your BASI reformer there too.

The assembly process becomes more complicated when you have a Reformer Cadillac Combo, which can take up to 30 minutes and requires a helping hand. We recommend you watch a full tutorial by BASI Systems here.

If you want to avoid the stress and hassle of this, and instead have your equipment installed quickly and efficiently by experts, you should consider opting for our professional installation package.
