CLASSES @ THE REFORMERY

Are you an early bird, a mid day mover or a night owl?

Classes run from 7am - 7.30pm throughout the week so there is always an opportunity to join a class that fits your experience level and schedule.

At The Reformery, we cater for every-body, from the complete beginner to the advanced practitioner. We’ve got everything covered.

Reformer Classes

  • Reformer Basics is a foundation level class. Perfect for beginners and anyone looking for a slower, more restorative, less challenging class.

    Our Basics class is ideal if you are returning to Pilates following injury, rehab or surgery. It’s also a good option for regular clients to review their technique and remind themselves of the key foundation pilates moves.

  • This reformer class will guide you through slow and deep movement, using the reformer to access areas that can't be reached on the mat.

    This class works for everyone, whether you are recovering from injury, new to exercise, spend a large part of the day at a desk or work out multiple times a week and find it hard to rebound from your workouts.

  • Restorative classes are for our clients looking for a more gentle class, whether you’re a regular who wants a slower paced class, returning from injury, are new to pilates yet nervous to start classes.

  • Reformer All Levels is for clients with some experience of Reformer Pilates. We recommend booking only if you have attended at least 5 Basics classes and have a clear understanding of the reformer set up and the basic foundation exercises.

    All Levels classes feature more challenging options for those who want to increase the intensity.

  • Intermediate / Advanced classes are dynamic and strong classes, including exercises for those that are already proficient on the reformer. It is essential that you have been attending All Levels classes regularly with all of our teachers, and have a deep understanding of the reformer repertoire and are ready for that next stage.

    You should have a good understanding of how to stabilise your core during the exercises in order to execute the exercises safely and with control.

    Unsuitable for beginners or those with or recovering from injury.

    Please email us or speak to your regular All Levels teacher before joining this class.

    Important: This class is not suitable for those with injuries.

Mat

  • Mat Bascis is suitable for complete beginners, those returning to the studio after injury or surgery or who want to remind themselves of the basics.

    It is a slow-paced class that teaches the foundations of movement and pilates mat exercises. It is a slower style class and for those looking for a more restorative session.

    Mat pilates gives you the opportunity to learn about your body in different ways, to use your body weight to build strength and utilise the small equipment that we have in the studio.

    Please make sure that you let your teacher know if you are suffering from any injury or physical restrictions so they can adapt for your body.

  • Restorative classes are for our clients looking for a more gentle class, whether you’re a regular who wants a slower paced class, returning from injury, are new to pilates yet nervous to start classes.

  • All Levels mat classes are a mix of classical and contemporary exercises taught on the mat, using small equipment.

    Mat classes are a great way to get grips with the basic principles of pilates without the support of the Reformer, teaching your body to move in a different way and understanding the core movement principles within pilates.

    Suitable for all levels from complete beginners through to intermediate/advanced. More challenging variations are provided during class for those who want to increase the intensity.

    We recommend that all of our reformer clients try out mat classes, and attend on a regular basis as they can allow you to enhance & progress your reformer practice with fine tuning that sometimes isn’t possible on a reformer.

  • These are for our older and wiser generations.

    Rachel’s over 60’s classes are beneficial for ageing joints with low impact and adapted non-weight bearing positions.

    Expect a class with focus on posture, hip & shoulder strength, balance, co-ordination, and mobility.
