The service

Why four people and not forty

Pilates done in a crowd is stretching with extra steps. We cap every session at four so Lena can correct each rep — the spring tension, the pelvic tilt, the shoulder you keep hiking toward your ear.

Sessions run 50 minutes across three levels. Foundations for beginners, Flow for the regulars, and Precision for people who think they're strong until the carriage starts moving.

  • Allegro 2 reformers — the studio standard
  • Max 4 per session, coach-corrected every rep
  • Three levels: Foundations / Flow / Precision
  • Posture scan before your first class
  • Sock policy: grippy soles, we sell them at the desk for $12

The process

Your first four weeks

Most people feel a difference in posture by week three. Here's the on-ramp.

Before class

Posture scan

Ten minutes on the 3D scanner — Lena sees which side you favour before you do.

Class 1–3

Foundations

Carriage control, footwork series, the surprising discovery that your glutes exist.

Class 4–8

Flow

Linked sequences, spring changes mid-set, the session stops feeling like physio homework.

Week 4+

Precision or stay

Some people stay in Flow forever and that's fine — Precision is there when the carriage stops winning.

In practice

Studio 2, up close

Nine machines, soft light, and springs that don't forgive.

The carriage

Five spring tensions, infinite ways to be humbled.

Hands-on cueing

Every rep gets eyes on it — that's the whole point of four people.

Second floor, quiet end of the building, no mirrors on the ceiling.

Who's coaching

Lena fixes desk-worker spines

Twelve years on reformers, trained under Polestar, and the reason half our members can touch their toes again. She specialises in backs that have spent a decade in a chair.

Her gentlest threat: 'Relax the shoulder. I can wait.'

Questions

Before you ask

Foundations, always. The machine looks scarier than it is — most people are comfortable by the second class. Book any Foundations session and come ten minutes early.

It's what the studio was built for, but talk to us first if you have a diagnosed injury — our rehab team will say honestly whether reformer work or physio comes first.

Fitted kit and grippy socks — loose shorts catch in the carriage straps. We sell proper pilates socks at the desk if you forget yours.

Yes with a physio sign-off and modified programming — Lena runs two prenatal-friendly sessions a week. Email us before booking.
