What is Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates is a group fitness class where participants perform various movements and stretches on a Reformer Pilates machine. The machine moves backwards and forwards and features springs and straps which can either support or add resistance to your workout.
It is designed to help you build strength, tone muscles, improve flexibility, and enhance your overall fitness.
It’s perfect for fitness beginners or a seasoned pro looking for new ways to improve their fitness. With every session, you’ll notice better posture, more energy, and less stress.

Classes under review
We regularly review class attendance at our Active Merri-bek centres. If a class has low attendance, we may put this class under review. This means that the class could be removed from the timetable if attendance does not increase.
Any classes that are under review will have a red sticker next to them on the group fitness timetable (in centre). If you notice this flag and would like us to continue running the class, we encourage you to come along to the session.
If you are attending group fitness classes, don't forget to scan in via our group fitness kiosk or with our reception staff. This helps us keep track of attendance and reporting on these classes.
As always, if you have any questions about this or anything else, please speak to our friendly customer service staff.
