What is Reformer Pilates?

Reformer Pilates is a form of Pilates performed on a specialist machine called a reformer. Our state-of-the-art Reformer Pilates machines go far beyond the traditional setup. Unlike traditional Reformer machines that rely on springs, ours use bodyweight resistance, featuring adjustable incline, a smooth glide board, and dynamic cable resistance, allowing for a wider variety of Reformer Pilates classes.

This style of Pilates focuses on core strength, posture, balance and flexibility, while remaining gentle on the joints - making it ideal for members of all ages and abilities.
