Pilates Reformer and other large equipment
Body Nurtures’s reformer and large equipment suite is proud to use only the highest quality Merrithew equipment for your comfort and safety
The suite has a V2MAX reformer plus 3 SPX Max reformers, each with a fully equipped ‘Tower’ to enhance your workout
In addition we have 4 Stability Chairs – used for fun group sessions and rehab work
To complete our suite we have a Stability Barrel, Ladder Barrel, Cadillac, Spine Corrector and Spine Supporter
Reformers enhance Pilates workouts by using the instability of a rolling carriage with the springs set at different levels of resistance to provide all kinds of stability challenges that develop core strength and promote better balance
Our classes are maximum of 4 clients to ensure your safety and quality of instruction
If you are recovering from an injury and/or have been recommended to do Reformer Pilates classes by a medical professional the group classes may not be suitable for you. Sue is happy to speak directly with your health professional to devise a specific programme of exercise to continue your rehabilitation and help you prevent the injury from recurring in the future with on-going Pilates exercise
One to One or Duo Reformer Pilates tuition is also great for those clients who would prefer to exercise privately or perhaps have specific fitness goals or want to see improvements faster than working out within a group setting. Cost of one to one sessions for Pilates Reformer £45 for 60 minutes. For duo session pricing please refer to our Booking/Prices page
Pilates Reformer classes at Body Nurture are based on the method developed by German born Joseph Pilates in the 1930s
It promotes body awareness and uses a series of exercises focused on spinal/pelvic alignment and correct breathing techniques to strengthen the core. Pilates Reformer can improve:
- muscle tone and strength
- flexibility
- stamina
- endurance
- balance
- coordination
- ease and fluidity of movement
It is suitable for men and women of all ages and levels of fitness as the pilates classes can be modified to suit individual requirements
Here at Body Nurture Reformer Pilates classes feature a blend of both the ‘classical’ method as taught by Joseph and the contemporary Stott Pilates method
“In ten sessions you’ll feel the difference, in twenty you’ll see the difference and in thirty you’ll have a new body” Joseph Pilates
