THE HERO: LES MILLS REFORMER™
Les Mills Reformer is our take on reformer Pilates - resistance-based, music-driven, and designed to strengthen, sculpt, and restore without rushing the process. Using state-of-the-art Allegro 2 reformer beds, every rep is intentional and every movement counts.
With just 20 spots per class, you'll train in a calm, focused studio where quality comes first. No distractions. No chaos. Just you, the movement, and the work.
This is strength with control. Effort with purpose. A new state of mind.

Not at all - and that's by design. LES MILLS REFORMER has been built for all fitness levels. The reformer machine's adjustable springs mean every movement can be progressed or regressed to suit where you're at. Your instructor will guide you through the class, so you don't need to know anything coming in. The most important thing you can bring is curiosity.
It depends on how you use it. The reformer adds resistance and range of motion that mat Pilates can't replicate, which means the ceiling for challenge is higher. But the support the machine provides also makes certain movements more accessible for beginners or those recovering from injury. In short: it can be more challenging, but it's also more adaptable. LES MILLS REFORMER is designed so both answers are true at once.
Reformer Pilates - like LES MILLS REFORMER - builds full-body strength, improves posture, and increases flexibility - all through controlled, resistance-based movement. Because the reformer supports your body weight while adding spring resistance, it's particularly effective for core strength, injury rehabilitation, and building functional muscle without high-impact stress on your joints. It's the kind of training you feel working, without feeling wrecked the next day.
Mat Pilates - like Les Mills Pilates - uses your bodyweight and gravity as resistance. Reformer Pilates adds a machine: a sliding carriage, adjustable springs, and anchor points that create resistance and support simultaneously. This makes reformer exercise more versatile - you can increase or decrease the challenge, making it accessible for beginners and genuinely demanding for experienced movers. Think of mat Pilates as the foundation; reformer Pilates as the next dimension.
LES MILLS REFORMER is not recommended after first trimester pregnancy.
