What is Reformer Pilates?
It’s your ticket to strength, stretching, and serious results. Reformer Pilates does it all — your body (and soul) will thank you!
Reformer Pilates uses a specialised piece of equipment called the Reformer. While it might look intimidating at first, it’s incredibly adaptable. Many of the exercises are similar to traditional mat Pilates but use the machine’s resistance to intensify or ease the movements. Think of it as your workout buddy, helping you target muscles you didn’t even know existed.
Whether you’re looking for a dynamic full-body workout or more support, the reformer’s sliding carriage, springs, and straps can be customised to meet your needs.
