The Studio contains a variety of specialist Pilates equipment and offers personal supervision and tuition by our fully qualified Pilates Instructors in an exclusive and unique setting. The Reformer The Classical Reformer is a cutting edge piece of equipment used in Pilates exercise. It was invented by Joseph Pilates to perform his exercises correctly, increasing spinal flexibility, enhancing range of movement, toning abdominal and back muscles and improving posture. It consists of a long wooden frame that moves back and forth with a spring resistance system. The reformer is a key piece of equipment in injury rehabilitation.  The Total Gym The Total Gym Gravity Reformer is a similar machine with an incline gliding mat system using body weight as resistance. It enhances neuromuscular function and builds core stability, increasing limb strength and flexibility without impact on the joints. It is also excellent for rehabilitation and for exercise whilst pregnant, but can also be used for a cardiovascular workout to build stamina.
