Two ways to train

Pick the class that matches how you want to work.

Every class on our schedule is taught on the Reformer, but they are not interchangeable. Some are built to challenge strength and power. Others are built to rebuild the fundamentals underneath it. Both are welcome at any age and any starting point.

Athletic Reformer · Julia & Paulina

Strength, power, and pace

Loaded, athletic Reformer work with real intensity. Jumpboard intervals, heavier spring work, and full-body sequencing that builds power and endurance. If you already train, play sport, or want a class that genuinely challenges you, start here.

Foundational Reformer · Lisa

Control, alignment, and mobility

Classical Pilates taught the way it was meant to be learned. Slower tempo, precise cueing, and time spent on the mechanics that everything else is built on. Ideal for a first Reformer class, a return after time off, or anyone who wants the fundamentals done properly.
