Physiofit Pilates targets both mind and body with smooth flowing movements co-ordinated with efficient breathing. The progressive, functional exercises are ideal for everyone from those recovering from injury to athletes wishing to enhance performance

The reformer is a piece of apparatus invented by the Pilates founder Joseph Pilates.It is a versatile piece of equipment which consists of a platform, called the 'carriage' which moves on wheels on a frame and is attached to one end by a set of springs. These provide resistance as the platform is moved. There's also a foot bar and long straps, which can be used by the legs and arms. Springs can be adjusted to provide variable resistance which adds resistance or instability to make the exercises either more or less difficult. Amongst many benefits, using the reformer develops focus, coordination, and good body alignment. As with all Pilates exercise, the emphasis on breathing and mindful movement has benefits for mental health. Our dedicated Reformer studio can accommodate classes of up to 4 people and we also offer private sessions. Reformer sessions are taught by experienced Pilates Instructors and complement our large timetable of mat based classes.
