This variation allows for greater range of motion and more targeted muscle engagement. The Reformer machine also offers more support for beginners or those with injuries.

Who can do Reformer Pilates?

Reformer Pilates is suitable for all fitness levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Its low-impact nature makes it accessible to individuals of varying ages and abilities, including those recovering from injuries, athletes looking to enhance performance, or anyone seeking a low-impact, high-result workout.

 

What are the benefits of Reformer Pilates?

What should I wear to a Reformer Pilates class?

Wear comfortable, form-fitting workout clothes that allow for full movement. Avoid loose clothing as it can get caught in the machine. Grip socks are often recommended for better stability and hygiene on the Reformer.
