Getting Back On the Reformer – Darren’s Return to Pilates

2025-06-03

This week, Robyn chats with someone very close to home — her partner Darren Sanders.

He helped build Compass from the ground up (literally), but like many of us, his Pilates routine slipped when life got busy. After a fall and some persistent back pain, Darren’s back on the reformer — and ready to see what consistency can really do.

💬 They talk about:

How Pilates first helped Darren with strength and flexibility

What caused him to stop — and what brought him back

What it’s like to rejoin after time away (no shame here!)

Setting goals and building back with purpose

This one’s for anyone who’s thinking about getting started again — because progress isn’t linear, and the reformer will always be here when you’re ready.

🎧 Follow Darren’s journey and check in again with us in two months for the update!
