NEW OFFERING ☀️ Stretch & Restore Reformer! | REGISTER today - Space is limited.
/ WORKSHOPS

This specialty Reformer class offers a gentle, therapeutic experience designed to support recovery, relaxation, and overall mobility. Using the Reformer for supported stretching, you’ll explore slow, mindful movements that lengthen tight muscles, release tension, and improve flexibility — making it an ideal complement to heavier workouts, periods of stress, or days when your body needs extra care.

Class elements include guided breathwork, individualized adjustments, and deep, restorative holds. The practice finishes with a calming mat-based meditation using blankets and bolsters to encourage full-body release and nervous system relaxation.
Key Features & Focus
• Equipment: Primarily the Pilates Reformer, with bolsters and blankets for the closing relaxation
• Movement Style: Gentle, flowing, slow-paced; blending Pilates foundations with restorative yoga principles
• Focus Areas: Hips, back, hamstrings, shoulders, and other commonly tight areas
• Environment: Dim lighting, soft atmosphere, and a quiet, calming studio tone
• Breathwork: Mindful breathing supports deeper stretching and relaxation

Benefits Include:
Reduced stress, improved mobility, enhanced recovery, nervous system regulation, increased body awareness, and restored energy.
Who This Class is Ideal For
• Anyone needing time to unwind, decompress, or reset
• Those feeling stiff, tight, or overworked
• People recovering from intense training or busy schedules
• Individuals seeking a gentle, nurturing movement practice
What to Expect
• Slow + Supported Movement: Springs and straps provide assistance for deeper, longer-held stretches
• Full-Body Release: Mobility gains from head to toe
• Calming + Restorative: Emphasis on breath, stillness, and relaxation
• Not a Workout: The goal is to feel nourished, not challenged — gentle intensity and mild stretching sensation is normal
