What is Reformer Pilates?
Ditch the mat for a more dynamic workout and hop onto our Reformer machines! Reformer Pilates utilises a moving platform, adjustable resistance, and the added challenge of straps, boxes, a ball, gondola poles, resistance bands and hand weights for dynamic exercises that work your core, muscles, and flexibility. But unlike passing trends, Reformer Pilates has a rich history, evolving from Joseph Pilates' "Contrology" in the 20th century. Join the movement and experience the transformative power of Reformer Pilates! Strengthen your body from head to toe, one exercise at a time, and discover a stronger, more confident you!
The Reformer Studio Foundation
Founded in 2019, The Reformer Studio has exploded from a single Lace Market studio in Nottingham to boast multiple locations across the Midlands, each equipped with custom Reformer machines. We are empowered by a team of dedicated instructors across the Midlands and fueled by the growth of our community through the School of Reform. Stepping into our serene studios, infused with our signature scent and oxygen-rich plants, transports you to a spa-like sanctuary. The Reformer Studio is more than just a place; it's a thriving community, a feeling of belonging, a lifestyle.
Bespoke and Sleek
Leading the way in Reformer Pilates, we naturally progressed to creating our own custom machines. Partnering with an indipendant Greek manufacturer known for their decades of experience crafting high-performance fitness equipment. We leveraged the expertise and insights of our team to design custom Reformers that are now the heart of every transformative workout in our Midlands studios.
