What is Reformer Pilates?

Reformer Pilates uses a specialist machine called a reformer bed, which uses springs and resistance to support and challenge your body through controlled movements.

Unlike high-impact workouts, Reformer Pilates focuses on:

• Improving core strength
• Supporting posture and alignment
• Building full-body strength
• Increasing flexibility and mobility
• Improving balance and coordination
• Helping reduce aches and pains
• Supporting injury prevention and recovery

The reformer gives you support where needed, while also helping you challenge your body safely.

Reformer Classical

Experience Pilates as it was originally intended. Reformer Classical stays true to the method created by Joseph Pilates, following a structured sequence designed to build strength, control, and precision. This class focuses on flowing through traditional exercises with purpose and consistency, helping you develop a strong, stable centre, improve posture, and move with greater awareness. Expect a steady pace, attention to detail, and guidance on technique to ensure every movement is performed with control and intention. Suitable for all levels, this class forms the foundation of your Pilates practice—perfect for beginners learning the method and experienced clients looking to refine their technique.

Reformer Powerhouse

Build strength from the centre out. Inspired by Joseph Pilates, who famously referred to the core as the “powerhouse,” this class focuses on developing deep, controlled strength through your abdominals, back, hips, and glutes. Reformer Powerhouse takes these traditional principles and turns up the intensity. Alongside the reformer, you’ll incorporate additional equipment to challenge stability, increase resistance, and create that satisfying full-body burn. Expect dynamic sequences, controlled strength work, and a stronger, more energised feel by the end. Perfect for those looking to build strength, improve endurance, and take their Pilates practice to the next level.

Reformer Restore

Slow things down and give your body the time it needs to recover, restore, and realign. Reformer Reset is a gentle, slower-paced class focused on deep stretching, mobility, and controlled movement to help release tension and improve flexibility. Using the support of the reformer, you’ll move mindfully through a series of stretches and low-impact exercises designed to open the body, enhance joint mobility, and encourage better movement patterns. With an emphasis on control and breath, this class creates space to reconnect with your body and reset both physically and mentally. Ideal for those recovering from injury, managing tightness or imbalance, or simply looking for a more restorative session, Reformer Reset leaves you feeling looser, lighter, and rebalanced.

Reformer Yoga

Take your yoga practice to the next level. Reformer Yoga is an advanced class designed for those with an established yoga background, blending classical yoga postures with the dynamic challenge of the reformer.
You should have done Yoga for at least six months before doing reformer Yoga.
By adding a moving carriage and adjustable resistance, familiar poses are transformed into a more demanding and engaging experience. This class challenges your balance, strength, and control in entirely new ways, requiring focus, stability, and precision throughout. Expect a strong, flowing practice that builds heat while deepening your connection to each movement. Reformer Yoga is perfect for experienced yogis looking to challenge themselves, refine their technique, and explore a new dimension of their practice.

Is Reformer Pilates suitable for beginners?
