Reformer Pilates Inner West

Why we keep our classes small
Small group classes, of no more than 6, mean we’ll know your name and get to know your body.
It means our teachers have time for personalised instruction, modifications and hands on guidance (if you want it).
And it means keeping everyone safe on the reformer is far more likely.

How our classes differ
Further to our commitment of small classes we go out of our way to ensure you’re not just getting another “fitness class on a reformer”, Pilates is much much more than just low impact movement. Our classes are top to toe body conditioning classes that align with the Pilates principles of concentration, control, centering, breath, precision, and flow. There’s no burn for the sake of burn, a yelling instructor with loud music, or repetitive variations of lunges and ab curls.
Our approach is more sustainable, and focused on longer term benefits: you’ll move methodically to improve joint health, strength and flexibility; and improve posture, balance and breathing; not forgetting developing core strength and control. The idea is to still be doing Pilates in your nineties! You’ll bring your mind into every class and understand your body better- and be rewarded with less aches + pains, quicker injury recovery, and an improved sense of general wellbeing.

What to expect on the day
A chance to tell us anything important about your body before class
Minor personalised adjustments as required*
Guidance on which springs to use, and how to set up the reformer
A constant flow of movement and instruction
Detailed instructions on how to do each exercise + where you’re likely to feel it in your body
Spinal movement in every direction, AND movement for every other joint in your body
To walk out feeling “floaty” and energised after every class

* If we’re unable to provide you with enough support in the group setting we’ll refer you to personalised studio sessions ensuring the best experience for everyone

How many classes is best?
The sweet spot is 2-3 classes per week: when you’re moving your joints and tissues this frequently you’ll experience positive change in your movement and body quickly. But mostly we’re about consistency…the odd class now and the will feel good at the time, but there‘s no long term benefits which is really the whole point of Pilates.
So if one is your number then go for it, but make a commitment out of it and make it really count.
