Pilates Reformer Duets
The Pilates "reformer" is a piece of equipment that is designed to help alignment and muscle balance and move easily from one exercise to another in flowing movement. A reformer class is a pre-choreographed reformer class that is led by a Pilates trainer. The YWCA offers reformer training as part of a Reformer Duet package, where 2 participants experience the reformer workout together with a Pilates trainer. Sign up with a friend, or as an individual and we will pair you with another member. Note: in order to attend a Reformer Duet session, you must first attended the free 30-minute consultation with a trainer. Once this requirement is met, you may purchase Reformer Duet sessions and schedule with any Pilates trainer.
If you would prefer to have reformer training on your own, please sign up for Private Pilates Training (see below).
