Beginner reformer Pilates
This class will teach you the fundamental exercises in a Pilates repertoire. It will also give you a good foundation for exercising on the most popular apparatus: the Pilates reformer.
The workout is certainly not easy and will challenge everybody.
Pilates is a practise, the movements are controlled and challenging with emphasis on posture. There are six basic principles that provide the foundation of Pilates and are key to performing the exercises safely and effectively: centering, control, concentration, breath, flow, and precision. With our small group classes, you will still get the attention you require to learn how to do Pilates with correct technique.
All levels reformer Pilates
Is a fitness-based dynamic Pilates class using the reformers to achieve a comprehensive full-body workout in 45 minutes. It is suitable for all levels of fitness and our instructors will provide modifications and progressions throughout the class to ensure you are getting the most benefit from your workout. Reformer Pilates utilises spring resistance to target core stability, postural control, strength and flexibility.
Our class sizes are kept small, a key difference at eureka Pilates, ensuring you are completing exercises safely and get appropriate feedback on your form.
If you are experienced on the reformer, be sure to let your instructor know and they can give you some challenging variations. If you want a more challenging workout, try our Dynamic reformer class (see below).
