𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗦 𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗𝗡’𝗧 𝗕𝗘 𝗔 𝗚𝗔𝗠𝗘 𝗢𝗙 𝗦𝗜𝗠𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗔𝗬𝗦. 👀

I don’t want you to become really good at following instructions without understanding what you’re doing.

I want you to know what you’re trying to feel, why we’re doing something, and what changes when it doesn’t feel right.

So there are a few things I really want you to tell me in class:

𝗜 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗗.
If something I’ve said hasn’t made sense, that’s on me. It’s my job to find another way to explain it.

𝗜 𝗖𝗔𝗡’𝗧 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗟 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗡.
Useful information. It doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗟𝗦 𝗪𝗘𝗜𝗥𝗗. 🤨
Also useful. We may need a little more detail, but it’s a perfectly good place to start.

𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗟𝗦 𝗗𝗜𝗙𝗙𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬.
Tell me. What’s changed can be more useful than whether something simply feels hard.

𝗜 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗞 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗠𝗘.
Fine. We can change the setup, spring, range, cue or exercise. I’m not emotionally attached to any of them. 😏

𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗪𝗘 𝗗𝗢𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦?
Please ask. You deserve to know what we’re actually trying to achieve.

And if you need a break, take one. You don’t need to prove anything to me.

I can see a lot from the outside. I can’t feel what you’re feeling from the inside.

A little unnecessary professional transparency.

Apparently there are a few things I’ve been keeping from you.

Nothing serious.

Mostly selective demonstrations, strategic pauses, questionable internal monologues and the occasional use of feet in straps as conflict resolution.

No further questions at this time.

𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗣𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦𝗡’𝗧 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗡 𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗢𝗙𝗙 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘. 👀

A 2025 randomised controlled trial by Uluğ & Özeren looked at 54 women with persistent low back and neck pain.

They completed 45 minutes of Reformer Pilates twice a week for 6 weeks — just 12 sessions.

The Reformer group improved in:

• pain
• fear of movement
• fatigue
• sleep quality

Pretty encouraging. 💙

It’s not the only research either. Larger reviews have also found Pilates can help with pain and disability in people with persistent low back pain.

Does that make the Reformer a magical back-fixing machine?

Sadly, no. 😂

But it does mean back pain doesn’t automatically mean avoiding movement — and Reformer Pilates can be a really adaptable way to get started.

At Equilibrate, classes are small and exercises can be changed to suit you.

Our lead instructor, Lucy, is a Level 4 Pilates teacher with Level 3 GP Exercise Referral, Level 4 Low Back Pain, Level 4 Strength & Conditioning and Level 4 Sports Massage qualifications.

So if you’ve been thinking:

“I’d love to try Reformer Pilates… but I’m not sure my back would cope.”

You might be more capable than you think. ✨

So book the hour that belongs to you before the rest of the week gets a vote. 🗓️

You don’t need to arrive flexible, strong or knowing which spring does what. Just arrive—we’ll coach the person who walks through the door. 💙

Some Pilates exercise names are perhaps a little… optimistic. 😅

Some sound soothing. Some sound straightforward. Then you find yourself shaking on a box, trying to coordinate four limbs and a breathing pattern, and wondering whether anybody checked the name before it was approved.

Teaser, to be fair, is at least honest. 👀

If you’re new to Pilates and none of these names mean anything yet, don’t worry—we explain everything. The questionable naming system comes free.

𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗦 𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗜𝗦 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟. 🧠

It begins with a perfectly reasonable set of instructions.

Then your arms and legs are doing different jobs, one side is moving while the other stabilises, you’re trying to control the carriage—and apparently you’re also expected to continue breathing.

Suddenly right has become left.

Left has become your other left.

And somebody has briefly called an ankle an elbow.

Sometimes it’s the client.

Sometimes it’s the instructor.

We won’t be naming names. 😂

No judgement—we have watched entire rooms temporarily lose all sense of direction together.

𝗣𝗶𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.

We feel we should clear this up.

Every so often, somebody gets dragged along by a friend or partner who has reassured them:

“Don’t worry. It’s basically stretching.”

Four minutes later, the springs are involved, something is shaking, and they are looking at both us and the person who brought them as though a serious breach of trust has occurred. 😂

Yes, Pilates can help you explore your flexibility and mobility—but it also trains strength, control, coordination and muscular endurance.

The apparatus can assist a movement, resist it, support it—or make a very small movement feel unexpectedly personal. 😅

You don’t need to arrive strong, flexible or experienced. Everything can be adapted and you’ll be fully coached throughout.

“All levels” does not mean everyone performing exactly the same exercise, in exactly the same way, at exactly the same pace.

In the same class, one person might use a different spring setting, another a smaller range, and someone else may be ready for more load or coordination.

The exercise might be the same. The strategy doesn’t have to be.

Nobody is behind. Nobody needs to keep up. And there is no prize for choosing the hardest option and regretting it three repetitions later.

Our classes are limited to six so we can coach the people in the room—not simply deliver a choreography.

Different bodies. Different starting points. Same aim: helping you move and do things better.

We see you looking at our page. 👀

Yes, you. 🫵

Hovering near the booking link and wondering whether Pilates is actually for you.

Then Instagram or TikTok shows you someone performing the splits on a moving Reformer while balancing on one hand, and you quietly reconsider.

Don’t panic. Nobody is going to ask you to audition for Cirque du Soleil.

You don’t need to be flexible, strong, coordinated or already know which spring does what. Our classes are small, fully coached and adapted to the people in the room. We’ll explain the equipment, teach you the movements and give you options as you go.

All ages. All abilities.

Book the class. We’ll take it from there.

Progress in Pilates rarely arrives as one dramatic transformation.

It’s usually quieter.

The exercise that feels a little less impossible.
The spring that suddenly feels manageable.
The balance you catch instead of lose.
The day your body simply complains less.

Every session will not be your best session. It still counts.

Keep showing up. The small changes add up.
