A high-intensity class combining cardio with Pilates exercises all done on the reformer. A very fun, but an intense class that will give you the workout your body needs. You can work on your abs, back, thighs, and virtually every major muscle of your body with the help of cardio Pilates.
A cardio pilates workout helps improve cardiovascular fitness, and it tones the body at the same time. Cardio Pilates helps you to improve your flexibility. The combined workout will also help you improve your posture.
Imagine this: kicking on and off that jumping board without the strain of Gravity! Your knees will thank you for it!
Mobility Reformer (Mixed level)
This is for those who are specifically looking at working on their Mobility or in other words giving their joints the ability to move more actively and freely through a wider range of motion.
Mobility is very important for everyone from beginners who are looking at enhancing their everyday life, to seniors who have just discovered how amazing Pilates is for their aging bodies, to athletes who are looking at improving their athletic performance.
You may be strong already but strength alone doesn’t give you all you need to perform all the bending, twisting, and reaching you need everyday. Mobility training requires dynamic movements and not static ones like stretching and while you might be already doing dynamic mobility exercises , Pilates reformer provides a unique more effective experience.

Gym Vibes (Intermediate to Advanced Level)
For Intermediate to Advanced Pilates Fanatics! (You have completed 10 classes of mixed level reformer pilates and injury free)
Our signature Gym Vibes class is for those who are looking at gaining more muscles. Yes, you will not need the gym subscriptions anymore because you will be able to achieve a gym ‘body’ look and an even ‘longer’ body.
The exercises we will take you through will address the total body with resistance from the springs we use on the machine, additional weights, plus our own body weight. Sometimes you will do the same exercise for up to 3 minutes which will exhaust the muscle group we are working. Stretched over 1 hour, we will help you hit every muscle group resulting in a growing muscle. The cherry on top is that by applying the Pilates principles on the reformer we will hold our bodies in neutral alignment protecting you against incorrect form.
This class uses heavier weights and tougher springs, so you’ll build new strength and rock a six-pack sooner than you expected.
