Reformer Pilates
Reformer Pilates!
A modern approach to a traditional form of exercise that promotes core and pelvic strength, flexibility, and provides you with a full-body workout, focusing on the goals set out to make it a unique and individualised experience.
To ensure best outcomes, your session will be pre-planned and your background will be discussed prior to your first Pilates appointment. We feel that this is important when it comes to achieving individuality, and everything that we do, is results driven.
What is Reformer Pilates?
Quite simply, Pilates, but carried out using a Reformer machine, often referred to as a carriage, a sliding platform which provides varying levels of resistance and/or assistance. It’s engineered approach utilises springs, making this form of exercise the most individualised but also most effective.
