Reformer Pilates
Small classes. Expert teaching.
In Brookvale since 2002
Strength That
Moves With You
Reformer Pilates builds strength, control and confidence in how you move. At our Brookvale studio, classes are physiotherapy-informed and taught by experienced Polestar Pilates instructors. With no more than twelve people on the reformer, your instructor has the space to see how you’re moving and help you get more from every class.
We’ve been teaching Pilates on the Northern Beaches since 2002. Bring the body you have today, and we’ll take it from there.
What is Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates uses a spring-loaded carriage to add resistance and support to your movement. It gives you hundreds of ways to work on strength, mobility, balance and control.
The resistance can be adjusted to meet you where you are. That makes the reformer equally useful when you’re learning the foundations, building strength or working with an experienced instructor after rehabilitation.
The goal isn’t to make every exercise harder. It’s to help you move well, understand your body and build strength you can use outside the studio.
Our Reformer
Pilates Classes
ou don’t need to know your way around a reformer before you start. Our classes welcome beginners and experienced movers, with exercises adapted to suit the person in front of us.
We cap every Reformer Pilates class at twelve. That gives your instructor time to watch how you’re moving, offer individual guidance and keep the class challenging at the right level.
You’ll build strength, mobility and control with teaching grounded in the Polestar method.
Group Reformer Pilates
There’s something different about moving in a room with other people. You have your own reformer and your own work to do, with the energy of the group around you.
Our group classes build strength, mobility and control through considered, progressive movement. Your instructor can adapt exercises where needed, while keeping the whole class moving together.
It’s focused training, without the fitness noise.
