Reformer & Strength
Our signature class, Reformer & Strength combines the precision of Reformer Pilates with functional strength training (lifting weights!).
Class usually begins and ends on the Reformer, with a few sets of weightlifting in-between.

FAQ
I've never done Pilates or lifted weights before, are group classes right for me?
As long as you aren't injured, group classes can be a fun way to start your Pilates and/or strength training journey. Some people like to book a few private sessions to get more comfortable before attending group class, but it is not required. If you're injured, please submit an inquiry or book a free 15 minute consultation to discuss.
Do I need to bring anything to group class?
We do require grippy socks at the studio. If you don't have any, we have some loaner socks you can borrow for class. We also recommend bringing water.
Why can't I cancel class?
You can reschedule a class up to 72 hours before its start, but after that we do charge the full class fee. Why? Because class is limited to six people, late cancellations have a big impact on us. For the health of our small business and fairness to all our clients, we need to adhere to the cancellation policy (even though we hate charging for missed sessions!). Thank you for your understanding, and for supporting this Oakland small business. We appreciate you.
