PILATES REFORMER | MATWORK PILATES | BARRE

REFORMER

During an intro reformer class the exercises, including breathing technique and activation of essential core muscles will be broken down as they are taught, ensuring you have great technique. This class is also designed to familiarise clients with the terminology and mechanics of the Reformer. The machines use springs and pulleys to provide variable resistance to assist and challenge the body. The variable resistance with Pilates Reformer is what makes it so unique and is why it’s suitable for every level of ability. It offers a new way to challenge the core and limbs with adjustable resistance. Clients will learn essential level exercises. Once completed clients can join one of our reformer classes.

In a Pilates reformer class clients will combine their own body weight with spring resistance allowing for fluid movements that focus on eccentric muscle contractions. A new dimension of movement is introduced as positions used on the Reformer include kneeling and standing. The Reformer is also great as a support when opposing muscles are imbalanced or when flexibility is limited Reformer classes are not levelled as modifications or variations can be individually taught allowing the just the right amount of challenge to each client.

JUMP REFORMER

Jump Reformer brings additional plyometric and cardio benefits to your traditional reformer Pilates. If you are enjoying your reformer classes but are looking for more variety and cardio then this class is for you. It is not for beginners; you should have a few Matwork and Reformer Pilates classes under your belt, be reasonably body-aware, and be looking to work harder and push yourself further. The cardio/plyometrics/pilates combination is tough and involves lots of jumping, kicking, pressing, and rotating movements designed to fatigue, however, as the reformer takes gravity out of the equation it is low impact on joints. Expect to sweat, burn calories, and feel your legs burn!

BARRE

Barre is a high intensity workout that incorporates elements of Dance and Pilates to elongate muscles and work them to fatigue. Designed as a “dancers” workout, classes are choreographed to music and work the entire body. The idea is to warm up the body and prepare it as a dancer would through long movements and high repetitions. We use isometric movements combined with the power of music to increase strength, flexibility, stamina and dynamic stability. The class is open to all fitness levels and no ballet experience is required. The best abdominal, glute and leg workout going round!
