Our Classes
You may find that every Reformer Pilates studio calls their classes something slightly different. If you need help selecting the right class for you, please get in touch using the form at the bottom of the page.​
​
It is super important that for your first Reformer session with us here at Patti’s you book a Primer Reformer session, we’d reccommend 3-5 Reformer Primer sessions before then booking on to a Power, Plyo or Primer Plus class.
This isn’t any measure of your fitness or strength but to ensure you have an understanding of how the Reformer itself works and the Pilates Principles such as breathing, control and precision.
​
We also offer Mat & Barre Pilates classes here at Patti’s, all of these sessions are mixed ability and you can attend any of them as a beginner or if you have experience on the mat.
​
When you go to book a class with us you will be re-directed to a separate booking platform, Mindbody, to complete your purchase.

Patti’s Plyo
Our Jump Board classes, a class for those of you who like a fast-flowing workout session. With Pilates at its core, Plyo sessions will combine foundation Reformer Pilates exercises with dynamic Jump Board flows, including the use of Jump Boards in every session.
So what is it? The Jump Board is an additional piece of equipment added to the base of the bed, providing a surface you can ‘jump’ on, opening up a world of plyometric exercises to target the lower body.
The repetitive jumping movement during the session will elevate your heart rate, turning this class into an effective cardio workout and turning the intensity up a notch compared to usual slower sessions.
