Postnatal Pilates Reformer This class is designed to provide new mothers with a challenging and effective workout on the reformer. This class is typically offered to women who are at least six weeks postpartum, and often focuses on rebuilding strength and stability in the core, back, and pelvic floor muscles that may have weakened during pregnancy and childbirth. During the class, mothers will use the reformer to perform a range of exercises that are specifically tailored to the postpartum body. The reformer provides resistance training, which helps to tone and strengthen muscles throughout the body, and also encourages better alignment and posture. While this class is challenging, it is also adaptable to suit each mother’s individual needs and fitness level. The instructor will provide modifications for exercises to ensure that everyone can participate safely and effectively.

GYROTONIC® Method

Gyrotonic 101 Tower Beginner Learn to set up the Gyrotonic Pulley Tower and Handle Unit to your optimal weight, tension and settings for different families of exercises. In this supportive class you will learn simple sequences to create body balance, efficiency, functional strength, and flexibility.

Open Gyrotonic Tower: Strength + Flow Use all muscle groups and connections integrating all body systems, creating balanced strength, mobility, and harmony in your body. You will have the opportunity to reach, spiral, and move on all planes with the feedback of the specially designed weighted pulley system rather than springs found on reformers and Megaformers, allowing for more fluid full range of motion without jarring or compression. In this low impact class, you are guaranteed to develop strong abs and core, a strong and supple spine, and toned, defined arms, legs and glutes that are properly connected and mobilized to relieve tension and pain that commonly occur with traditional weight training and fitness classes. Clients typically find that Gyrotonic sessions are the most effective at creating more spinal mobility and stability.
