Class Details

This is the next step after Intro to Pilates: Reformer + Chair. It is also a suitable starting point for clients new to Studio Mōtus who already have Pilates experience and are familiar with both the Reformer and Wunda Chair. If either apparatus is new to you, begin with Intro to Pilates.

Throughout the class, you will work on both the Pilates Reformer and Wunda Chair. Both apparatus use adjustable spring resistance, but their distinct designs offer different exercises and movement experiences. The Reformer uses a moving carriage, while the Wunda Chair is built around a spring-loaded pedal. Moving between the two allows you to explore a broader range of the Pilates repertoire, creating a more varied and well-rounded practice.

Beginners will benefit from clear, structured guidance and a focus on the foundational repertoire. Regular clients can refine their technique, deepen their understanding, and explore each movement with greater precision.

With a maximum of five participants, our small-group format allows our instructors to offer individual attention and guidance throughout the session.

Previous experience on both the Reformer and Wunda Chair is required. Following Intro to Pilates, your instructor will guide you when you are ready to progress.
