I’ve been going to Reform Pilates for a few years now and absolutely love it! I tried Tower Pilates for the first time last night and really enjoyed it! it’s definitely a lot more intense than reformer and such a good workout! Debbie really knows her stuff and is brilliant at helping with alignment and making sure you’re doing the exercises correctly. I’ve noticed such a difference in my strength, posture and alignment, and it’s really helped with my riding too. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Reform Pilates to anyone! 💚
I love this Pilates studio! It’s small and intimate, which makes every class feel personal and welcoming. Debby is incredibly experienced and attentive, always making sure we have the right form and get the most out of each session. A wonderful place to build strength and feel supported.
I absolutely loved this reformer Pilates class! From start to finish, it was such a well-balanced blend of challenge and flow. Debby guided us with clear, thoughtful cues, interspersed with demonstrations, that made it easy to stay aligned and really connect with each movement. I appreciated how the class pushed me just the right amount — my muscles were definitely working, but I never felt overwhelmed. The variety of exercises kept things engaging, targeting strength, flexibility, and stability in ways that felt both dynamic and mindful. I'm looking forward to my next class!
Great class and Debby the instructor was amazing, defo recommend. Wish I lived closer would be there often
