MIXED LEVEL REFORMER : Mixed Level is the bridge between Levels 1 and 2 on the Reformer. Students will be offered both fundamental and intermediate variations with slightly quicker transitions from one exercise to the next. A great way to take your practice to the next level! A minimum of 10 Reformer 1 classes is recommended.
REFORMER 2 : An intermediate, fast paced class, Reformer 2 offers more challenge to students’ balance, endurance and coordination with more difficult Pilates Reformer exercises. All Reformer 2 students are required to go through the Level 2 assessment with the Pilates Director. Contact Sabin Morris at smorris@capitalac.com to schedule an assessment or for more information.
REFORMER 3 : Our most advanced and fast paced class, Reformer 3 students perform the most challenging progressions of the Reformer repertoire. Students work through many of the exercises in a series to increase the heart rate, challenge muscular endurance and strength, and improve coordination.
All Reformer 3 students are required to go through the Level 3 assessment with the Pilates Director. Contact Sabin Morris at smorris@capitalac.com to schedule an assessment or for more information.
TOWER CIRCUIT: A Pilates equipment circuit class that combines work on the Reformer, Tower and Jump Board designed to develop both muscular and cardiovascular strength and endurance. Some standing floor and Mat work is included. A challenging class that works the mind and body in all planes of movement.
