Virgin Active, the world’s leading premium wellness brand, will be rolling out specialist programmes across their Group Exercise Experiences, reinforcing their commitment to provide the highest quality in training, coaching, and class experience. The first of such specialist programmes to be launched in 2024 is its Reformer Pilates Programme, which will turn “traditional” Reformer Pilates on its head, with the creation of four Reformer Pilates classes: Foundations, Align, Athletic and Recovery. Its programmes mark a significant shift in Reformer Pilates with music playing a big part, setting the energy and vibe for the class ahead. This exciting array of Reformer Pilates classes is part of its ‘Reformer Revolution’ campaign which caters to individuals of all fitness levels and is designed to enhance Reformer Pilates practice through a variety of approaches.
Julian Bera, Country Director of Virgin Active Singapore says, “Besides amazing holistic fitness & wellness facilities, Virgin Active is passionate about delivering expertly crafted, quality programs. Reformer Pilates is one of the focuses of our Group Exercise Experience and we are excited to present what we think it can be. For those who are looking for something more “traditional”, try our Foundations & Align classes. For those who are looking for a high energy experience, our Athletic class would be perfect. Imagine your high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout conducted on the Reformer bed, aiding your stretches and reach. For those who are simply looking for a good stretch from sitting all day in their office, try Recovery. Our Reformer Pilates classes are all about the vibe and energy you are looking to bring for the day.”
What sets ‘Reformer Revolution’ apart is its inclusivity and accessibility across a diverse variety of interests and needs. Whether you are looking to enhance performance, a fitness enthusiast seeking variety in your routine, or a beginner embarking on your wellness journey, Virgin Active’s reformer classes cater to individuals of all fitness levels and abilities. As part of the innovative campaign, Virgin Active is offering four unique reformer classes that will cater to all fitness preferences and capabilities.
Reformer Pilates – Foundations: This class takes a deliberate, slow-paced approach in a workshop-style format, focusing on explaining equipment, exercises, and terminology, while emphasizing on foundational principles. Ideal for beginners and those returning to Pilates after a hiatus, this class lays the groundwork for a solid Pilates practice.
Reformer Pilates – Align: Suitable for all levels, Reformer Pilates Align offers exercises and sequences that provide a challenge, while also incorporating modifications and progression options to accommodate individual abilities. This class is designed to help members refine and develop their Pilates proficiency.
Reformer Pilates – Athletic: Participants in this dynamic class move to music while engaging in a fusion of Reformer Pilates exercises and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Reformer Pilates Athletic offers a fast-paced, energetic workout, making it perfect for those seeking a more exhilarating session. Excellent for those who enjoy high energy classes.
Reformer Pilates – Recovery: Reformer Recovery is a signature class designed to provide participants with an opportunity to relax and unwind through a series of stretching exercises using reformer machines. Combining dynamic and static stretches, this class promotes a sense of clarity, centeredness, and balance for all participants.
“Cultivating strength, balance, and harmony through Pilates is not just about the physical practice – it is also about fostering a deeper connection between mind and body. In our ‘Reformer Revolution’ classes, we aim to empower individuals to discover their inner strength and achieve holistic wellness.” Tidarat Virasunti (Praew), Head of Pilates & Yoga of Virgin Active Thailand stated.
